    That's what I hear all the time, some of you might not use it for bad, if its anyone I am talking about or the ones who should blame for people like me not liking it.

    Is the ones who miss use the tool for wrong.

    When you say "ones" you are referring to people. Each person is different in terms of attitude and personality. You cannot blame a parser for that. Yes you will reflect negatively on the person for their bad attitude towards you, but that's all you can do besides report them and hope SE takes care of it. To try to blame a parser for someone's attitude towards you is like trying to be mad at the tools a plumber uses because he doesn't want to fix your leaky pipe.

    Don't forget this people: a parser isn't only good for DPS. It also helps with many other things going on like (over)healing, mitigation, incoming dmg and loads of other stuff.

    I think SE can't use the harass argument anymore. They also know people will ask for it more demandingly, so I wonder what their response on the matter would be like.

    Looking forward to it.

    Good? Hell no. Have you seen my alignment in D&D?



    But going on topic, I believe if we were to use an in-game parser I think it'd be a good step in the direction of raid content. Then like after every raid players could choose whether or not to submit their DPS scores to Yoshi-P's Dev team. They could then possibly use the data and analyze it to adjust fights based on a % of players passing and failing and give tweaks to fights on some mechanics instead of giving an overall blanket nerf. (I'm looking at you Turn 7.)
