    Could anyone tell even one "non-mean" way a parser will be used? Is any group just gonna be like:

    "Oh, player C did the least damage this round. Cool to know! Now let's continue without kicking him."

    If a group downs a boss with no issues, unless the disparity between the highest dps and lowest dps is just incredible, it's unlikely anything will happen to that low dps.

    Parsers can be used constructively. If you are pulling lower numbers than that player playing the same class with nearly equal gear, then there's something wrong going on, and you can use that as a motivator to look up help or ask someone in your FC for help.

    You'll find, however, fewer players are willing to use this information in a constructive manner, because the likelihood of a player blowing their top and getting incredibly defensive over it is high. The "I play the way I want to" crowd has made the community just as toxic.
