I'd love for you to quote where I said they were essential. I can quote several times in the thread where I've stated I haven't even used one, much less downloaded one for FFXIV. In fact the analogies I was using a stopwatch for was for a PT test. They weren't essential there either, but they were pretty damn helpful.

As I said before, they are just bluffing and probably boarderline trolling (at worst) or trying to get attention (at best) at this point. I just linked three threads showing parser information, a literally gold mine of 'offenders' for them to report. And they aren't reporting them. So... make your judgement on their true intentions based on that.
