Something need to be done about BAD DPS.

[Gilraen]

So your "And those running third party parsers, as I've noted, used their numbers exactly how we feared they'd be used." is nothing but anecdotal evidence without any relevance.

Anecdotal suggests a lack of experience with the subject. I guess you missed the sentence, and my post well prior in this thread, where I specifically cite a tank in a Fractal run using a parser to call out the party for their bad DPS. That is experience, and first-hand experience at that, nothing anecdotal about it. And in the end it wound up being the tank that was holding us up so it wasn't even the party's fault. Prime bloody example of what we are trying to avoid.
