    3. if you add the parser, you will just add a way for people to discriminate against others, when it isn't necessary because the good players already have parsers.
    Because people on PS4 can not use these parsers.

    If Yoshi's stance is "It's against the ToS, but if you don't tell anyone you use it then you're fine!!".... well I'm sorry that's just ridiculous. I (and the few others in this thread who care to read the entirety of posts instead of picking through a few words and take them completely out of context) already realize he said No. We get that. That doesn't mean we can't try and come up with viable alternatives. For lack of a better excuse, it's just downright unfair that they cast a blind eye on PC users who use these add-ons when they tout that the game is multi-platform but both platforms don't get the same goodies.

    I don't agree with your point #3. I don't need to prove my personal level of skill in this game to you, nor would you probably believe it. I am plenty good at this game, so not all "good players" have parsers. I would like to know how much DPS I parse so I can try and improve, because right now all I see is flying text that means literally nothing to me outside of "OOOOOOOH that was a nice crit"

    The discrimination bit is getting very played. Who would have imagined that on the internet, breeding ground of perpetual sarcasm/flame/trolling, that people would get so bent out of shape over a little criticism.

    .
    PS4 users have a legitimate gripe, but point #3 still applies its not that you need to prove yourself, and obviously you can get better using your own data.

    It's that people would use it to not take someone based on a number that is very subjective.

    and the "good players already have parsers", im not saying all good players have parsers, but good players have them, and good players want them, ie yourself.
