    How would it be toxic, the OP asks? All the while FFXIV has one of the least toxic communities in the mmo genre. Then factor the present toxicity despite the lack of an in-game parser. How much of it is caused by third party tools illegal to the game's ToS? Does anyone truly think that the current toxicity in the game will be reduced by an in-game parser?

    SE has a turned a blind eye/deaf ear to those third party tools being used for parsing, and in return you get outright refusal to address any kind of in-game parser. I would consider this a win for those of you who like to use such tools because you're here on the forums talking about how x number of DPS is lacking and are not getting 86'ed from the game.

    Fact of the matter is that it is not in SE's best interest to eject players using 3rd party tools. They will discipline players in clear violation, but suspect and hearsay is completely ignored. It really is no different than any other community gathering where you know you cannot stop all illegal activity, but you are required to police the activity you observe and priority is placed on keeping said gathering safe. SE has far less concern for 3rd party tool users than actual harassment going on in the game, which may or may not be a result of them. They most certainly don't want to add to their workload by adding an in-game parser.

    So in short, the question being asked should be how would an in-game parser NOT be toxic?
