The Real Problem with Parsers

[Aiselia]

I don't want them in my DF pool.

Unfortunately for you, then, it isn't your pool. It's everybody's pool. They could just as easily say that they don't want people who'd kick them over DPS in their DF pool and be just as valid because you're both players.

What's the problem, again?

The effect they have before they get reported.

Both of which are very nearly meaningless metrics.

Still better than going in blind.

"Carry me, senpai!" is not an option on the DF queue.

What's carrying to you may be fine to them. Just like what may be justified kicking due to carrying to you is harassment to them and will just get them to report you. Again, who decides the threshold of what's carrying and what's not? Some people may feel that if someone's doing 800 DPS on a class with gear that could be doing 1200 DPS is being carried. Are they right in that assumption? Should SE make a new set of rules to govern what's carrying and what's not carrying? Or should they just deal with extra reports from people getting kicked for that?

And again I'll ask, what happens if you kick the person you were carrying, open up to fill the spot, and then another person comes in that's just as bad or worse? Do you kick them to? What gives you the right to waste multiple peoples' queue times? If you don't want to carry a person, what's stopping YOU from leaving the party and not forcing your will on someone else?

How many players stop playing because they're tired of people thinking they deserve to clear content just because they can queue for it?

If they do, then they clearly didn't exercise the options available to them by premaking parties.

You can't just pretend there isn't another side to this.

I'm not. I'm just not saying that my side is more important than anyone else's, and especially not more important than SE's. Fact is, if SE says they don't want to risk problems with people being harassed or kicked because of their DPS, then saying "Sure there will be problems but eventually there might not be" isn't going to convince them otherwise.

That's the only character on your account. If you have another account, by all means link it?

That's the only character on my account I've chosen to display.

Honestly, you're better off putting your main or whatever to backup your own perspectives.

I intentionally do not to weed out the people who choose ad hominem arguments over real ones. Even if this was my only character, it does not invalidate my argument and so is irrelevant. What I have personally done in the game is irrelevant to the merits and drawbacks of a system allowing people to kick based on DPS.
