When did calling PS4 players “console peasants” become acceptable?

Everyone is at the mercy of anyone who uploads random fights, not just PS4 users.
If you are going to claim to be a great player, you should be able to back it up.

But that's just my opinion.

I mean, I can say whatever I want about myself in a public forum. I don't have to back it up to any of you, because I don't play with you. Only people I need to prove it to are the other 7 people in my party at the time. And that is done on a constant basis.

You are correct, you can say whatever you want. Welcome to the 2-way street though.
As much as you can claim to be the greatest-of-the-great, I can turn around and say "No."

[Hash_Browns]

And saying "no" won't strip me of how good I am. That's the beauty of it.

Who you trying to convince at this point?

This is why i don't raid or do EX Trials. FFLogs, Parsers, 3rd Party apps, Serious Discord conversations, Statics... all for glamour pieces that don't even look sexy xD.

I love how this thread devolved from "meme that was taken badly" to "us console players are trying to prove our worth in this very thread, but we don't have to prove our worth".

Seriously. If it didn't matter to you, then you wouldn't be posting here. If it wasn't worth it, or if PC has no advantages over you, whats there to complain about? Sounds like an inferiority complex. A useless discussion that is going nowhere.
But anyways, tons of PS4 players perform well. Keyboard, controller, doesn't matter much. As a matter of fact, many console players already perform extremely well via their logs on a supposed elitist website, which gauges accurate information.

I would just like to say, to that person who did call it an elitist website, it does actually say a lot about how you view the game, or potentially how good you are. Not that theres anything wrong with being a casual, but FFlogs isn't an elitist website. It's just a website that gives accurate info for a fight, how well a person did in said fight. This can lead to self improvement because it can help you map out your cooldowns as a tank, find where dps phases end or start, when aoes screenshot that dont have cast bars (Innocents, as an example, immediately snapshots when the final mob dies in Extreme. You wouldn't know this very easily without playtesting or seeing when the snapshot completes via FFlogs.)

Now, that being said, much like how Act can be used in a bad way, FFlogs can also be used in a bad way. But just because things can be used in a bad way doesn't = bad. Otherwise everything would be bad.

But hey, thats just my final 2 cents.

They say it because apparently they need validation of spending over 1000$ on their PC.

And no I don't own a PS4, only a PC.

Brutal truth from a PC owner. Very refreshing to see. +1 to you.

I also stand by calling it an elitist website: one fueled by an addon that is against the ToS. But that was many pages ago

Sorry I lied.

I mean, just like how people need validation for spending 400$ on a console to play an MMO as opposed to playing it more smoothly on a pc for a tiny bit of a grander sum. But meh. Choose what you want to play on, but theres 2 sides to this. Both seek validation, and honestly, both are wrong in their reasonings why. It's pretty dumb.

That's some bias. And you having the mindset towards that add on and what it entails for the improvement of the community and/or game, as well as allowing theory crafters to do what they do, but better (which would still allow elitists to thrive REGARDLESS by the way)

Is exactly why you probably won't and haven't thrived as a great player.
