    Yoshi-P can't protect the community from everything, and in this case it's doing more harm than good.

    Go take a look at all the players underperforming yet thinking they're the top dog.
    Or how about the players who genuinely want to improve but have no way of knowing whether what they are doing is good or not..

    How's that for proof.

    The proof is in the community right now.

    Hmmm.
    That's like saying that screwdriver are only used to stab people, make sense!

    I'm not here to make fun of you really but you may reconsider your opinion one day.

    Meanwhile, non-official parsers are useful tools for raid progression since they keep designing tight DPS check fights.
    All of this is very hypocritical to be honest, parsers are needed for a part of the community but it is like a whole "fight club rules" only.

    Want to hear a funny and casual story, where an official parser would have been an useful tool?

    Today I was doing my expert roulette as brd, AK-Hard, the second dps was a smn, full syrcus tower stuff.
    The man managed to only spam bio II and miasma the whole run, no banes on pack of mobs, no shadow flares, no ruins, mostly doing energy drains over fester. It was a long, painful and weird run x.x.
    Meanwhile, we did not kicked him but the healer and myself really tried to make him understand (in a gentle way) that his rotation was not correctly done.
    But.
    We did explain this in English, the guy was German and couldn't understand a single word.
    IF the game had an official parser running, no matter the language, numbers are a worldwide common language.
    And so, when partying with other, if your numbers are far bellow from another team mate, there is no need to be Einstein to understand that there is maybe a problem within your gameplay.

    Let's be honest guys, how many BLM spamming Fire III <> blizzard III back to back did you met during your duty finder experiences and how many of them still continue to do so since nothing ingame is giving you some sort of hint.

    So, do you see the potential good uses of an official parser in order to create a better playing place? Or do you still think that all scissors are used to commit murders.
    I'm going to repeat myself but... Don't punish the majority just because a minority can make bad uses of a tool.

    Edit: I didn't see you were the OP in the first place so I didn't quite grasp your stance on this but yeah, I agree with you on this.
