    It will change. Right now if someone calls you out for low dps you ask how they know. When they reply that they run a parser you can then report them for 3rd party software and they will get their account suspended or banned. Because of this people keep quiet. This does not apply to static groups.

    If they allow parsers then it will turn into "must have minimum dps >= X else kick".

    Not sure if you ever followed the Japanese server raid groups or not. They go by the "follow the mechanics and stay alive and we win".

    Oh please, the Japanese also have a blacklist where they put all the players who lie about their performance and are holding groups back. It's pretty much common knowledge and I wish all DCs would do this to keep these type of players out of my way.

    Also the 2 excuses brought up this time are funny.

    "I was top tier in another game" Cool, I was a top tier Formula 1 driver, obviously mean I'm a top tier NASCAR driver and should win alot of races. Oh wait, different means, different rules and different environments. It's doesn't translate 1 to 1.
    "I'm top tier but just not interested in Savage" I could beat Floyd Mayweather in a fight but I'm just not interested in fighting ya know.

    tl;dr It's not how it works... It's not how any of this works.

    You are aware that your words there make you sound, right?

    You can't say, "Keep these type of players out of my way" without sounding like an 80's sports movie villain.

    Using a program not supported by, and in fact is against the rules of, the game to "improve" is exactly like using steroids to win a weight lifting competition.

    A parser is more like recording one of my fights and then reviewing it later to see all the mistakes I made to then act on them. If it was steroids, the parser would let me compete with DPS players as a Tank or a Healer. Get your damn comparisons straight.

    Also I outdps'd more players than I care to mention on Warrior during HW and SB. Am I wrong in wanting those players effectively being awful out of my way?
