^^Obviously hasnt played a game that fully allows parsers to be used, specifically those with a real-time HUD. I completely agree with Tupsi and am glad SE has taken their stance against it. Parsers are not actually ever NEEDED. Never ONCE in my 11+ years of MMOs have I ever seen anyone use a parser to help someone, EVER. 100% of the time parsers come up, its some d-bag running his mouth, yelling, insulting, and ultimately excluding someone.

Now ill admit that yes, its possible that some patient good samaritan help someone with it ... and im sure its happened before. My point is its obviously a rare sight and not worth the problems it otherwise causes. (An event requiring compassion, empathy, and humility towards a stranger is a rare sight? Shocking!) They are a small rarely use convenience for those who use them correctly and only serve to make things easier and faster for them to win. Everyone else uses them to point fingers, yell, and insult others.

Im all for an in-game practice dummy UI or maybe one that privately gives you your own information. Anything so long at it doesnt help the trolls.
