Incorrect. By definition of the TOS, admitting to use the parser in and of itself is a reportable offense. Reporting the person who's violating the TOS is a valid action regardless of context or intent.


If you or anyone else admits to Parsing and it's in a traceable log somewhere, and it gets reported, you're/they're the one the GM will go after, not the person obligated by the TOS to report such things.

It's already happened on this board. Be smart, don't tempt fate.

Also, we will be getting parsing meters once addons come out, recall yoshi saying that once addons come out, the ability for them to display more information is fine.
You recall in error. Yoshida explicitly stated he will not be adding a client parser because he does not want it to lead to discriminatory actions against players. However, what he has stated is that he would make beginner-training style quests that will teach players to be mindful of their DPS and may, as a objective for said quest, require you to maintain or reach a certain DPS marker.
