Thank you Yoshi for your stance on DPS meters

I do run ACT, sometimes, but I keep it hidden until the run is complete, then I analyze what I did right or wrong. Unfortunately, it's pretty much useless if there were no other players of the same class and ilevel in the group to compare against. The ONLY time I care about how another player did is if they're also NIN, and a similar item level, so I can get a comparison of how I'm doing relative to them. (It is a pain to find their item level though, since I never inspect other players in game.)

I'd love to have a built-in private parser that shows my performance and actions relative to an average of the last 50 runs by other players of my class and item level (+/-10) Let me view it at the end of the run if I want more data, or ignore it. Personally, I need to know how I'm doing relative to similar players. How else do I know if I need to improve or not?
Just show me the average DPS for the run, and a pie chart showing the damage by action. If I see all the higher DPS players using action X far more often than I do, then maybe I need to start doing the same.
