    Because an in-game parser would not suddenly lift anti-harrassment rules from existence.

    If SE added a parser tomorrow and I joined a party where I was underperforming and someone said "Moro you are garbage, uninstall" I would still be able to report them for harrassment, exactly the same as I can right now. How they came to their conclusion that I was garbage is irrelevant, they insulted me which is harrassment.

    The misunderstanding here is that some people think if I joined a party and was underperforming and was told "You're doing X dps which is very low for your class and ilvl, look up rotation info and try again" is toxic. It isn't, its factual. That is not harrassment.

    I don't understand how people can mix these things up. If you combine them into "Moro you're doing X dps which is really low you're garbage uninstall" it is still harrassment.

    The key in harrassment, I feel crazy having to lay things out like this but it seems necessary, is the actual harrassment which means in my example the person calling me garbage and telling me to uninstall.

    For that matter telling someone their numbers is not and never has been harrassment. When you report someone for something like that you're reporting them for SE's asinine anti-third-party rules, not harrassment. These things can happen together but they are not mutually inclusive.

    Saying having an in-game parser would increase toxicity is like saying owning a toaster will increase burnt bread. You can burn bread plenty of other ways, plenty of times you or others will use your toaster and not burn bread at all but throwing the toaster out doesn't mean you will not still burn bread in the oven or while making grilled cheese or while microwaving a lean cuisine. The toaster isn't making you burn your bread.
