    I've seen the former, done it a few times myself but that isn't using fflogs to harass a person, its displaying data points to back up an argument.

    The latter is an argument tactic calling into question the authority and qualifications one has to speak. For instance, it may feel a little disingenuous when X says that DRG is bar none the easiest job ever and he could do it in his sleep, but he only has 5% on the fflogs in his three v1s kills and nothing besides. If it makes you feel better people extend this to levels as well: seen plenty of people calling others out for speaking with supposed authority on a job they haven't leveled.

    Its a lot like a college paper come to think of it. If you don't have the credentials to prove you know what you're talking about, you have to cite someone who does.
