Survey: Community Opinions Regarding Parsing/Parsers in Final Fantasy XIV

[HyoMinPark]

Was this addressing me? I actually can't tell since you mention the keyword, and I was specifically addressing the words being used and less Riyah as a person.

It was more so with regards to Riyah. I know that you were addressing the statement as pigheaded; to me, it seemed that she was addressing raiders as a whole as pigheaded, hence why I included the word “people” in an attempt to clarify. It’s one thing to refer to comments as pigheaded or stupid, but another to actually call someone pigheaded or stupid. Of course, my interpretation of her comment could also be tainted by previous posts made by her, which are generally negative in terms of how she views raiders, raiding in general, and parsing. I apologize if that was unclear.

More so, I’m just trying to put a stop to any unneeded hostility, since that wasn’t the purpose of the thread, and I much prefer seeing civilized arguments between posters compared to arguments where people do nothing but name-call and make needless/baseless exaggerations. People are always entitled to their opinions, but opinions and thoughts can always be conveyed without the layers upon layers of hostility I sometimes see on here.

feel free tell me if i go outside the scope of the thread you had envisioned. In the end of the day I wish FFXIV's development team would give us SOMETHING to fight the huge skill gap.

So far, none of your posts have stood out to me as incredibly hostile, so I think you are fine. :3 I don’t mind if people want to politely debate pros and cons of parsers amidst their feedback; I just take issue with people that come into threads trying to push personal agendas, blatantly start crap by baiting people, or have nothing to actually add to or promote discussion.
