Built-in Parsers

[Niwashi]

Right now you can say "You're performing really badly!" and that's not considered harassment. Then you could say "You're performing really badly: your DPS is only 2500 when it should be 4000!". And again, if you add any personal insults or bad language to those, they'll turn into harassment, despite if numbers have been used or not. The main difference in my eyes is that when the numbers are used, the person receiving the critisism will know if it's based on facts or not.

Actually, telling someone they're performing badly can in many cases be harassment now. But that aside...

With a personal parser, they'd be getting those numbers. The difference is that you're not satisfied with the game providing them their numbers. You want to take command and be the one giving out your teammates' numbers yourself. That's where it turns into pure selfishness, the part where you are the one to tell them their numbers, or even that you feel you should even know their numbers.

The ones who can actually do something about their numbers ins't you. It's them. So they're the one who should get them. Controlling someone else's game is NOT your job. Your job is to take care of your own character, and see that you are performing well enough. It's up to your teammates to take care of theirs, and their performance.

With a strictly personal parser, you get your numbers and can work on improving your game. Your teammates each get their numbers and can work on improving their game. In a static you can coordinate this and work on your team dynamics to improve how you work together. But nobody gets to take over and appropriate other people's gameplay as their own.
