I find it easy to tell how well I am doing that way.
I very strongly recommend you check out ACT to realign your perceptions. Not only is your analysis of threat and DPS completely incorrect, there are other factors that are significantly reducing your "merit" to make this statement.

I must be misunderstanding you somewhere. I don't "intentionally" keep away from parser harassment in WoW. I simply don't see it. I still PUG content frequently.

You have the same problem don't you? Esp when you admit being in a crowd of a select few, you do not know what the majority is, therefor I can say you are the one stating a conclusion with anecdotal experience and having emotional bias. Because guess what? Parser harassment happens IN FFXIV!!! when they have it against the ToS, it is pretty obvious it will only increase if you give out a public parser, and that is why SE does not want to do it. Are you really suggesting one person vs the devs who has chat logs, going to believe YOUR "anecdotal experience as analysis"
Read my post, and read yours. Which one of us sounds "emotional"? Where did I say anything about being in a crowd of "select few"?

The other major difference in our posts is that I am stating my opinion and providing examples to support my statements. You are stating yours as if it was fact. Which is not the case.

Another tidbit you had wrong is I have never once stated parser harassment does not occur EVER. That is ridiculous stance to take. I've always tried to direct your attention from the constant combination of the words "parser" and "harassment". They are 2 separate things.

Ya sure its not like he has no clue on what goes reported and have people relay important information time to time.

A person that thinks they know more then Gm team/ development team of the game in question, unbelievable. You are in some cave if you think parser harassment is very few cases.
Again, in what world did I ever say or imply I knew more than Yoshi personally? I've simply stated examples of why Yoshi's word isn't the hand of god.

Please, do me a favor. The next time you PERSONALLY see harassment stemming from a parser, copy and paste it, report it, and then post it here for all of us to see. This way I can keep track of it.
