Because this isn't going to change the game positively; the amount of people who want to improve and don't already have some means of doing so are tiny. The people who report you aren't going to make use of that parser anyways.

No, I'm not nice enough to say "I really want this to help people", I'll be honest. And I'm actually quite bad at teaching others anyway.

If I parse, it's for myself and for my statics, since I'm the one doing the upload on FFlogs. So that I can better myself, or see if I had a better "score" than during the last time.

Actually, I never Pug for party as I prefer to go with my static, even for primals. Not that I disregard the people outside of it, but I'm not that comfortable with strangers, to say the truth.

My point is that when you find yourself in a party made by the party finder, whether it's for 24-man raid and such, sometimes people just end up leaving without saying a word. Or just kicking with the other person not even knowing what happened. Because they can't tell them. And if the person doesn't know that he's actually performing poorly, how do you want him to improve anyway?

The "funny" thing is that sometimes people are calling other "bad at dps" while they don't use a parser and don't see that they're actually the one dragging down the group...

And I really don't think that this is healthy for the community at all.
