3rd Party Program might as well be legalized

I don't even do any challenging content so I dont personally need it, but if you are agaisnt parsers, you probably are because you're just bad at the game or underperforming and you are scared of people calling you out on it

Good point. I have my FFLogs hidden because I’m bad at the game and all of my friends know it.

Also, it’s time that people understand that FFXIV is a plug-in and add-on game now. It has among the biggest modding scenes of any online game and towers above WoW in terms of popularity and capability of our add-ons. As many people on the forums agree, Square Enix will lose “around 40%” of their user base if they banned add-ons. 20,000 people are on the Mare server at any given time, and many millions of people have downloaded plugins. Parsing, “cheats”, and other tools are the bread and butter of Final Fantasy XIV in 2023. And we like it that way.

If you’re not raidlogging, modbeasting, and cheating your way through FFXIV in the current year, you’re far behind the curve and no one wants to have you in their party.

Square Enix doesn’t decide the rules of the game, we do. They can’t ban us all, nor will they try. We’re here to stay. Accept us or find something else to play.

You have a greater chance of seeing this thread get Thanos snapped than you do getting an individual poster banned.
