3rd party tool go brrrrr

Pretty much this. It's the same as it has always been, don't flaunt your mods and you're good.
Btw, bards use a third party tool to play music, and i don't care what square's reasoning is, crack down on that and you're assholes.

Mate

Ill tell you what dps meters did...and it wasnt constructive either. Just the opposite.

You can play FF 14 w/out ANY addons, as opposed to needing them in WOW to compensate for its primitive 18 year old engine.

And when I put my markers on the head of enemies in CS the very same guys scream cheater. WTF mate, it's just a UI, doesn't effect your game!

Banning random streamers for using Act and UI mods is entirely performative and doesn't actually do anything to help combat illicit activity within the game. It just promotes and sanctions witch hunts.

But it's kind of SE's thing to take the laziest approach to solving problems lately so I'm genuinely not surprised.

If I cant set an ACT trigger to yell at me "nice bunny, idiot" when I fkc up a mudra, what's even the point of keeping the game running.

There is a chinese saying that goes kind of like this "shoot down one foe, to warn 100 others", and what kind of Person would be better suited to be the "1 foe", if not a Streamer?

It is more or less, just about getting the message across, to as many People as possible.

That only works if those foes believe you have the means to take them out aswell. If they believe it to be an empty threat, which realistically it is in this case, then you're just making a fool of yourself.

Yeah I bet all the people using illicit pvp tools and simulating invisible AOE's to be visible are quaking in their boots right now.

BTW, can I be banned for being in Alliance C?

Their stance didn't change! They just repeated stuff. And finally admitted the UI sucks, so we should be thanking the UI modders - IF SE decides to actually reworks stuff. I assume its gonna take a long while tho :D
