    FFLogs really just makes raiding stressful to me because I feel like every mistake I make rotation-wise or mechanically is potentially getting smacked onto a permanent record that I have absolutely no control over.

    I care about improving and doing well. I do my research on the Balance discord to know that I'm gearing/doing my rotation appropriately. But I'm not going to spend hours re-running the same raids for no purpose but to bloat some arbitrary score only a puny portion of the playerbase knows/cares about when I can be spending that time chasing other more tangible achievements.

    The number of incidents where FFLogs has caused toxicity to be directed at me can be counted on one hand, but the mere fact that it enables such behavior at all irritates me. People should concern themselves with how someone performs in the now, not some silly number that can be easily skewed by inconsistent parses or misinterpreted via stupidity. A lot of people will only look at a bad parse without actually looking into what caused it, which can include deaths that were caused by mistakes on the part of other players. I cannot begin to count the number of times I've died at E6S due to getting an air bump circle but not having anyone get into it to keep me from dying for starters.
