Yoshi-P "definitive" answer on third party tools from today's 14 hour stream

You should probably not go around looking for and instigating it, then.

I think you can find the "Uninstall" button yourself?

Eventually people will learn that restrictions are arduous, and that instead of inviting them among ourselves, we should self-moderate to preserve the freedom that we still have. If the parsing community refuses to self-moderate and blend in with the rest of the player base, the devs might be forced to act to remove this from our game. And the worse it gets, the more likely it is for them to take action. It behooves parsers to act responsibly instead of lashing out against other players. After all, Yoshida is on record with saying that parsing is negative if only because people use it for toxic ends. Parsers should prove me and him wrong by demonstrating that this tool can be used for positive ends, rather than to fuel hostility.

So what it already does. Cool

It already does, but you can't fault a tool for being unable to account for your willful ignorance.

[Ransu]

Again, lack of knowledge, showed that they don't understand how the game works as demonstrated by their poor performance

You wanna be the pot or the kettle?

Telling your fellow players to uninstall the game is what I would expect from WoW or LoL, not FFXIV.

The FFXIV community ought to aspire to be better than what we've seen here. If people cannot do it themselves, then we need to have safeguards to prevent our community from spiraling out of control like other games have.

Isn't that what this community does to people who say they don't like this game's story?

I mean some should, or only run with Trusts or those that are okay with carrying. You realize that pulling your weight is something people should be doing, yes?

I mean, some of your clears show that you were carried lol, may need to deflate that ego a bit.
