    Fair enough, if that's how it works, since I don't have the expertise to say. But if, as I've read here, it only records data from parsed runs, then it's extremely bias anyways. In my case, I never parse (iirc it's technically against the rules anyways, though they never act on it). So my data is very minimal and drawn from completely random parties I've joined where someone parsed and uploaded my data without my consent. Since the players interested in parsing are generally pretty mainstream, the only data is from mainstream parties I've joined, which is something I rarely do anyways .

    Knowing what I do now, I find it even more pathetic that that random guy messaged me the other day just to bash me about my FFlog stats...

    Also, I doubt FFlogs would be able to track anything besides what can be deduced from numbers, though. You might be able to tell how the fight went from the numbers, but if I'm parsing an all-DPS run of a dungeon and using bouncing to prevent damage on a boss, the FFlogs will show poor DPS numbers, when in actuality that's because the DPS players needed to intentionally modify their own rotations to match each others' DPS outputs, rather than maximizing.
