Should reading our Battle Log be a ban-able offense as well?
    On Demon Wall, was there communication? Did everyone know the fight? Did everyone know to kill adds or not kill adds? Or was the only communication going on name calling and belittlement? Right, it doesn't take a tool to be that way, them or you. We also don't want a tool to be there to be abused at large. Oh yeah, just like the In Progress DF window. A useful tool that got abused so it was changed.

    Is it harassment to you when you go into DF, have ZERO control with who you get grouped up with, want to do that sub 10 minute WP run, and it takes closer to 20 minutes? You going to rage that they are wasting YOUR previous time when the run otherwise went smooth, just not fast enough for you? How far do you go with your previous time? What did you do before Vote Kick/Vote Abandon? Just leave and eat the 30 minutes?

    Yes because that works so fast for DPS at all times. LS, FC, statics, even Party Finder can be a lot faster. If you are a tank with instant-queue? No, clicking a button in DF is a lot faster than seeing if anyone else wants to run it on your own server.

Failing ANY of these, I would get vote kicked, harassed, and bullied WITHOUT THE USE OF A PARSER.

    Why is it then the moment a damage class is in question as to whether or not they're playing their class correctly, it's this giant problem?
    You shouldn't be bullied, harassed, vote kicked, etc. Tanks also get the blame when it is not there fault. DPS goes crazy and pulls first, or unloads AOE right after axe/shield toss, or healer throws a regen on you RIGHT before you pull a large group? Just because you would get bullied, harassed, kicked, without a parser, does not mean we want a tool where even more grief will be incoming.

    DPS has been in question all along. Someone marking mobs? Someone not killing in proper order? Crowd control used? Everyone staying BEHIND the tank when running around a corner or entering a room? Everyone let the tank pull? Bad DPS has been in question since the start of the game. We didn't need a parser for that.

    Especially fighting a boss mob, or anything that lives long enough to see debuffs. BLM got Thunder up? BRD two DoTs? SMN their range of DoTs? Heck any class with their DoTs and debuffs kept up? Don't need a parser to see that. Noticed the DPS never used any damage increasing buff? Don't need a parser for that.
