The Real Problem with Parsers

[Aiselia]

I'd be 100% on board if they had been available at launch, but if people really want to see your numbers, they can see them. Hiding your dps is just no longer an option. While it might have been a good option, it's just no do-able anymore.

However, a personal parser allows for one to be able to see their own output but allows SE to maintain their (actual) current stance that they know people use them but shouldn't bring them up.

But you're right. Hiding your DPS isn't an option if someone already has a parser.

So then, why are party parsers needed? A personal parser gives you information about yourself and presumably will use less resources than a full party one, making it easier to fit in for PS3 players. What more relevant information will a party parser give you that a personal one won't?

Or are you going to argue like you have countless times before that a perfectly good analogy has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

No, I'm going to argue like I have countless times that scale of potential abuse is important. The objective benefits of making a premade outweigh the detriments.

Other people can't help you if they can't tell what you are doing wrong, and some people are unwilling to help themselves.

Continue to the end of what you quoted where I mentioned optional sharing. This can either be done through my idea of having a share button that shares the parse of the last fight (because presumably you'd bring it up after a wipe or when you notice things dying slowly) to a single person or the party depending on your choice, or what someone else brought up of having options of whether you make it public, private, or just plain off.

So, again, what objective benefits are there to a party parser over a personal one with optional sharing?
