DPS display could easily be solved with a system already in game.

You can say I'm "ignoring it" all you want. A parser will help to bring it to light, but your responses say you don't want it because of the toxic nature that could come about it...which I'm saying is no better than the same attitude the other two thirds of your holy trinity experience. This is also bringing it to an extreme as if literally everyone is going to go on vote kick sprees. Me having an expectation of dps to hit their own 1-2-3 in the right order isn't much more than my expectations of a tank to hold aggro or a healer to heal. I don't go into dungeons and expect everyone to pull 600 dps...that's asinine.

If they were held accountable for it some would start to perform better bringing up the average. I shouldn't have to run into a dungeon and pray at least one of the dps can do their job at least semi-competently, but sad reality is that we have to. Maybe if no job was safe from scrutiny people would be more apt to playing tanks and healers.

No one is saying that a parser is going to magically improve everyone overnight. Originally I was only for the sanctioned parser in the content where it matters (ex and coil). But after the discussion brought the concept into trivial content every single one of your responses has boiled down to "the double standard exists just because". I dunno about you but any point you have falls flat without a real reason backing it up. In this situation we should just have the sanctioned parser for everything to reduce this double standard.

I am fairly calm, I just wish you had a valid reason to your counter argument.

I guess the way the mind works (i.e. science) is not valid with you people. That's fine. I mean, that's exactly how people/businesses can sway others to react to something in a desired way eventually lol. Many people wouldn't have jobs if that weren't the case. Again though, it's not about the vote kick thing, it's about the outcomes for the players personal impressions. I'm also not saying you're going to expect big numbers or anything.

I'm saying you'll literally take the time, if you don't already, to actively check if people are doing what they should as far as their performance is concerned... irrelevant to whether or not things are acceptably fine. That's a psychological habit though, so that's not surprising. Not just you, of course, but a great number of people will be taking the time to do the same unfortunately. DPS should be held accountable, but the perspective that people are literally going to be watching out for a bad DPS simply to judge, since it's not as obvious to judge like a tank or healers role, is already a bad thing. The old school way of determining problematic DPS, like harsh DPS checks all over the place, serves the role a lot better IMO. That unfortunately destroys the games direction though.

And I do agree that if scrutiny was not a possibility, people would be more apt to playing the more focused roles of tanks and healers. It is though, as I said, because the spotlight is defaulted to them (their roles are much more important than DPS usually and they're outnumbered).
