Parsers

[Gamemako]

(they can't legally condone 3rd party apps though without an agreement between companies).

Actually, they can. They opt not to because they don't want parsers to become an integral part of the XIV culture (re: very casual).

Sounds to me like OP got all bent out of shape about being called out for being bad at the game. He came in and did so poorly that another player thought he was just coasting on the backs of his teammates. OP is crying because someone had the data on how bad he is rather than just having to guess. He actively states that he tried to get others banned as retribution, having absolutely nothing to do with an objection to the parser or parsing in general. OP is now on my ignorelist, and quite frankly, players who exhibit that sort of vindictive, abusive behavior don't deserve to play online games.
