How does SE justify these ten min enrages, but doesnt let anyone know their dps

[HyoMinPark]

That's the only discussion on the party chat before I was kicked, trying to explain why I don't need Shield Oath because I'm not the one tanking. And yes, it has everything to do with the discussion since people actually believe harassement from "low" DPS numbers will obviously be punished...

Shield Oath? Or Sword Oath? Which is it because you've stated both. If you were off-tanking, you don't need Shield Oath. Since a PLD's only full combo at level 50 is the RoH combo, which just happens to be their enmity combo. I'm sure you know this already. So if you were in Shield Oath, and they politely ask you not to be, then the kick can be considered justified. If you were in Sword Oath and they asked you to be in Shield Oath because maybe you were taking too much damage, or, as a PLD, they wanted you to MT and not OT (this seems to be the case for some alliance groups, they prefer PLDs to default to MT so that WAR/DRK can OT), and you didn't comply, the kick could be consider justified if half the party or more thought you were disrupting the run. If you were in Sword Oath, and they kicked you for just being in Sword Oath and not Shield Oath, then they're just jerks. But that has nothing to do with parsers and how the parsers supposedly negatively affect the community.

If people are punished, you have no way of actually knowing unless they come forward and say something about it. The GMs do not tell anyone of any actions taken against those who are reported.

I did my fair share of Coil and tried Alex Savage back in 3.0, so I've seen what kind of mentality you can find in some parser users. I don't need to try Omega now to see that mentality still in place (if not worse), I just need to see what information is spread in the official forum.

And the Official Forum is an extremely small population of FFXIV's actual playerbase. Not a great sample to base mass opinions on.
