So, I hate to open up this can of worms again, but....

I stopped using parses a long time ago.

C'mon. You know that's not a legit solution if 1 player is wiping the group. C'mon.

Its open to way too much abuse when no one knows each other.

So is everything... still, why does that make leaving the group a preferable option to kicking the person that was the direct cause of wiping the group? I feel like you're just throwing buzzphrases at me.

I disagree with "so is everything". Putting random people from different servers who will probably never see each other again into a group opens the situation to a high amount of abuse. Theres little to no accountability and people can and do abuse this situation. Do you read the forums? We see way too many theads about getting kicked after a wipe or two.

Because a group parser could be used as a tool to interfere with df parties staying together.

Being more unforgiving, wouldn't just stay in raids, other content will be affected as well, making the community more hostile to new players, learning parties, and non hardcore play.

Maybe a parser on a target dummy.

WHOA... what is that helm you're a wearing? A dragon? Some kind of boar?

Your first 2 sentences seem to contradict each other. Also the forums do not represent a remotely large population of the game, nor their experiences. All of this doesn't really matter though, because I still don't understand how any of this relates to your original statement lol

So let's try this again: If one person is directly causing the group to wipe, why should I leave instead of kicking them?

[Xyth]

Since when kicking people to their poor performance ever a thing? Since ever... The only thing the parser will show is concrete numbers, rather than visually seeing their performance. Hell, most PF are already excluding BRD and MCH in the group lol, before even kicking them due to their low numbers, they're not even included.

The "abuse" you claim was never about abuse. If a DD can't output dmg to surpass DPS Check phases, then he/she deserves the boot. If a tank/healer can't perform to where they keep the party alive, then they deserve the boot. This concept was never new... why get butthurt about it now?

[Kayote]

I am and always have been for personal parsers. Mostly because they dont really cause many problems, if anything they help with player testing and feedback. If someone wants to use them for themselves, I say let them. Worse that can happen is we get cookie cutter x-skills and rotations ... which we already have.

[Scruffyx]

Would love to have a personal parser.
