    It's an innacurate tool to meassure other people's performance. Why innacurate? Because people only upload parses to their convenience. I'd be happy if they shut it down.

    It is extremely accurate, if you break down it is a wonderful tool that allows someone to break down the entire fight from start to finish allowing either a person or a group figure out what when wrong which allows a group to figure out how to fix it. Sure it is not perfect no tool really is, but it is a valuable tool nonetheless. Just because some may use to it lord over others does not mean the tool itself is inherently bad. Just as if someone calls another player bad in a not so friendly manner does not mean the words ring any less true.

    I once hid my profile, but then I said "Fine, if you want to feel better uploading practice/clear party numbers because you've already cleared and are good at the fight, do it". I haven't looked at fflogs since.

    Lots of people are harrassed by that info that was uploaded without their consent. You are all assuming the best use case scenario, when in reality it's been used everyday to harrass or exclude players.
    I get what you are saying but disliking something because of a few bad apples is odd, things are often not that simple.
