Learn your history lesson: Witch Hunts DO cause innocents to be banned

[Havenchild]

You assume a lot. You should stop. It is making you look ridiculous. ACT just shows your DPS and the damage of others. This addon called Cactbot is the part of ACT that can be downloaded and added into ACT. That is the part that is really the discussion happening here. If someone buys a hammer and runs off to kill someone with it are you gonna witch hunt the owner of that store and ask that he be punished as well. You can't go after the store just cause the hammer came from them. In simple english you can go after ACT cause Cactbot works though it. That is dumb. And to honest no one should even know that you have ACT unless that person is a dumb @ss and telling everyone they are using it.

The only one who looks ridiculous is you, making the assumption that people won't utilize all aspects of ACT as many ALREADY DO. Let's not play dumb, I'd like to value your intelligence slightly more than you're letting on. CB is not that far removed from ACT to sit there and say "Oh this isn't gonna be an issue." You can literally download the plugin from within ACT so again stop going for the intellectually dishonest play here. It is not that hard to setup and you know that as fact if you are the smart individual you seem to be on the subject. Approving ACT IS approving "ACT" and ALL of it's expansive utility. It is not JUST a calculator. Stop the lies already.

So when you tell me an add on does something, I assume it is someone that is talking a bunch of bs, until proven other wise. As you are once again relating the same tired thing that DBM ruined WoW, but this isn't true. WoW devs ruined WoW by building the game around DBM. FFXIV fights are far to scripted for DBM style add on to ever truely make a large enough difference for the content to be overtuned, as it is already undertuned with out it.

So basically you comment on topics you have no knowledge about. Cool story.

I, on the otherhand was present in WoW when DBM became more widely accepted during the turn of Legion and Wrath and recognized by the devs. To argue that DBM was not (as I stated and you neatly left out) ONE of the reasons the WoW raiding community suffered is asinine and clearly you have no knowledge on that subject either. You don't really need my opinion on it, you can take the COUNTLESS content creators who raided the content as well. It is by an large an accepted reality amongst other things. DBM is damn near a requirement nowadays even if it was possible to clear some of the content without it (it is) but good luck finding a group like that. I would argue between DBM, the PTR and the devs catering to the raiding commmunity (amongst an invisible arms race, which Ion acknowledged in a recent interview with Asmongold btw) this lead to that tuned aspect of WoW Raiding suffering severely. Among clan divides that have gone on for far too long, the raiding community on some alliances on some servers have outright diminished. It's only now that they are getting rid of allegiances that things will improve but yeah it was/is a major issue they have no control over anymore.
