    No, your comment doesn't stick, it stinks. First of all, I'm not using any one as an excuse to oppose the introduction of parsers, nor am I asking for special treatment for, or by, anyone.

    I was simply pointing out that with generally available parser numbers, the general environment of the game becomes much more competitive and less friendly and frankly unpleasant to people who because of one impairment or another will more frequently be challenged by players demanding that they parse higher.

    Being opposed to having a parser of all players individual performance being generally available does NOT equate at all to asking for special treatment for anyone. I've done and said nothing to suggest that any player should be singled out for special treatment or that any person should be treated differently from any other. I'm happy that you're brother is good at gaming, gaming is wonderful for teaching spacial awareness, motor skills, exercising the ability to plan ahead, following sequences of instruction among other things, so it's great that your brother is into gaming and that is something you can share.

    It's just a pity that you're so keen to attack me rather than listen to what I'm saying.
