The Real Problem with Parsers

[Aiselia]

I like how a question that's asked to the anti-parser crowd has only been responded to by people who aren't anti-parser making up answers for the anti-parser crowd.

Strawmen are a good way to practice your rotations, but a bad way to make a point.

Also, lol, you put forth effort and "considered" personal parsers.

Which is more effort than most pro-parser arguments who demand all or nothing.

A number with out something to compare it to, means nothing.

A number without something proper to compare it to means nothing. If I don't have 2 BRDs in my run when I'm running a BRD, I don't know how much damage I should be doing as a BRD. I can see the damage a DRG is doing, but they do different damage.

if they don't come to read up on proper rotations already, they aren't coming for a number that means nothing to them.

If they don't care enough to find out if they're doing good damage compared to the CORRECT class, why would they care what they're doing compared to the rest of their group anyways?

Lets look at that, why would they, what do they gain.

Group wipes, DPS was too low, people ask for parses to see who could pick up their socks. They gain tips if they're willing to listen.

your parsers will make everyone jerkfaces logic

Which I've never said.

They also don't allow you to diagnose potential problem areas in a run.

How does a party-wide parser allow you to do this that a personal parser wouldn't if they show the same information except not to everybody?

Personal parsers are a huge half measure.

Which you should be happy with if that's where they want to start.

So please don't claim some "I, on the other hand put deep thought into this" status.

I didn't say I put deep thought into it. I said I put some effort into it, unlike the majority of pro-parsers. Like you. What have you considered as a way to get SE to add parsers in?

you used disabled people as a defense against parsers

No I didn't. That would be extremely difficult since I've never made an argument against parsers. I've voiced the common argument against parsers which is apparently the reasoning for SE not adding them and how people here either fail to even attempt to disprove it or outright prove it to be a fair fear.

Disabled people were a side point about whether everybody can objectively put out the same numbers even with equal gear and whether everybody should be held to the same standard with equal gear regardless of any other factors.

So yeah, overall, your problem appears to be that you completely made up my argument and are trying to disprove some things I never said. You should fix that.
