Well, if you have no uploads, then why go through the trouble of hiding nothing? I don’t really understand what you’re getting at, to be honest. Maybe because I’m tired.

To be fair, people generally don’t care about the 24-man parses, or even Extremes really. A lot of people just look at current Savage parses when they’re looking at people for things like statics or analyzing performance. That being said, a good person will analyze them thoroughly, and not just look at your median average or your worst parses and say, “Well, that person is garbage.”
Why are you concerned if that's all you have there?
Do you feel that potential grey logs there will reflect badly on how people perceive you if/when you progress towards Savage?
If that is the case, have you considered taking along a friend to upload if needed and simply knuckling down and ensuring that you have some decent runs there? Getting high percentile runs there is surprisingly easy IMHO.
You know.... I couldnt agree more with this.
Much like how not everyone who parses is a toxic kid who will rage at you over your numbers, not everyone who hides their logs are doing it just because there's something to hide or because they "want a carry"
I've seen the argument pop up plenty where people want to be able to judge their own performance, and their performance alone via parsing software and guess what, I'm not denying anyone that ability by hiding my logs. What I am doing is denying them the ability to make a erroneous assumption about my ability to play, just because of one bad log that got uploaded without my concent, or a good one that didnt get uploaded.
Regardless, I have no interest in the endgame level content, where most people agree that a parse is necessary. So if anyone resent me because you dont have "proof" that I'm playing at the level you want, go ahead. I'll let my actions do the talking instead of just raw data without context.
*Drops mic, leaves thread, since I already got bopped once for stepping on someone's nerve*
This (the bolded statement) is in direct contradiction with what you said earlier:
And, I say again, hiding your logs removes the ability for people too look into those greys and see why they’re grey in the first place. Bad comp? Lots of deaths? Poor healers? Poor tanks? Poor rotation? They can’t see any of that because you hid them, so they’re going to just assume you have something to hide.
Then...why are you in parser discussions anyways? Parsing doesn’t matter in dungeons or 24-mans, only Extremes and Savage content. Which you don’t do. So if there was an in-game parser that functioned in Extremes/Savages/Ultimate, why would you care because you aren’t doing that content?Quote:
