As a real example that I encountered, a few raid cycles ago, some of my raid members really struggled because they were using a parser. Rather than taking their time to properly learn the mechanics, they would be so focused on their parse number and damage output (unnecessarily, we were way ahead of the DPS check) that we would wipe to mechanics because of it. The solution my raid leader came up with was to ban the DPS from using their own parser (the raid leader still had one running) so that they would only focus on the mechanics, and that solved the problem.

Parsers are fine, but I do agree with KaivaC that I think player quality would actually decrease if parsers were encouraged in MSQ levelling content.
