The issue nobody wants to address

Snip.

Because it's ultimately a useless and unnecessary feature? Why would you want to hide your contribution from the group? It shows you clearly don't care about working as a group or have something to hide. Either case will see you removed because you don't deserve to be there, especially if you're causing failures.

You also limit feedback from other experienced players, granted negative as well as positive. We can't give real time advice without seeing your performance in real time. We also can't see where exactly things are going wrong in real time.

It's all well and good saying your average DPS is X amount, but if we failed in the first place unless you are clearly under performing consistently to the point where you average is low enough to make you stand out we don't know what the exact problem is.

If you're having issues with a particular phase, or mechanic we wouldn't know. You'd receive no relevant advice and nothing gets accomplished or you are kicked and the party disbanded.

People against parsers are avoiding literally every possible benefit we state over and over again because in their selfishness and ignorance they don't want responsibility. That's the only real conclusion we can draw, because ignoring harassment (which happens regardless of parser) that's the only reason left. If they don't want any form of responsibility they are playing the wrong game/genre!

The best part is, multiple people gave her multiple answers. Most saying that they didn't really care if it was implemented, but that it would only help those people whom she is terrified of abuse people. It was her choice to entirely ignore the negatives people presented, which is ironic, because I'm sure she has gone on about pro-parsers denying there are any negatives to parsers, which I have not seen any of them actually do.

My suggestion in another thread:

I'm totally with your suggestion. I think coding the different set ups like that is a waste of time personally, since almost no one would use the "No Parser" DF, and you would see a ton of "No Parser DF queues are way to long!" threads pop up. I'm totally fine with that if it actually gets them in the game.

But it voids the negatives presented with the hidden numbers idea.

Yeap.. It's going to continue till they shut this thing down...

And another one will open, and another. And it will quiet down a bit at the start of 3.1. Then it will come to the front again, once people are slowing down on that content. And there will be those amazing forum vets who sigh "not this again", and respond "Yeap, this again". That is the way ongoing issues work.
