A bit recently I've been messing around with HU or BR, and in emergency-quest multi-parties, I'm now the one who can barely lay a finger on the enemies because of the FOs in the party. So I feel bad in a different way, because it's almost like I'm leeching.
In the end, I'm sure it doesn't really matter if one person hogs all of the kills , since exp/drops benefit everyone. So I'll just resume blasting away things whenever I'm using FO.
Since people are maximizing exp and drops, generally you want to;
- Don't kill things when people are offscreen, since they don't get exp/drops.
- Don't brind NPCs to multiparty areas, since they don't add to spawnrate.
- Stick together, so the spawn is better. (You also kill faster)
- If people want to Exit/Entrance burst, go to the appropriate location with them. To maximize spawn.
- If there's a rare boss code, call it out to the multiparty so people can come to get credit/drops.
- Wait for people to arrive to break boss crystals, especially from rare bosses (Hi Haze). Also maybe a bit of time for people to switch to lucky rise equipment.
- Res people, unless they die a ridiculous amount of times, and you're trying to spread out your Moon usage throughout the quest. People need to be alive to get exp or loot, and sometimes S-Rank for a Client Order.
- Don't override Weak Points. Slows down the kill, so it takes longer to move on to more things.
Those are the general things I think about for an efficient, and respectful run.

By the way, I see lots of people mentioning Cut-ins being bad etiquette... (especially if auto-worded)
Is this just a personal feeling? Or is this also felt by the majority (see, Japanese) of the PSO2 players?
I mean, I don't use them because I don't like overly drawing attention to myself, but I never found fault with players using them.
I think it (or /toge) draw some pretty nice attention for some people calling out an Emergency Trial in a multiparty.
(Usually there are only 0~3 people who would autoword a cut-in for an E-trial, but I guess if there were all 12 members of a multiparty doing one... it would be a bit jarring)
Or, do you guys simply mean over-using cut-ins? Like having them for screaming attack names while you battle, or for using hurt-sounds when your character gets hit? Cause I can see those being obnoxious, although I've never ran into anyone like that before.
