I'm pretty sure majority of the people that used parsers prior to the announcement, still use them regardless of illegality. A parser is still the best overall method to evaluate yours/others performance. If you are concerned and troubled about people removing you from groups due to low numbers, then you shouldn't be running with these people in the first place.

If you don't like or want to run with people you discern to be elitist, then why does their availability to a parser make a difference when you're ideally wanting to avoid them?
