    There are also people so focused on mechanics that they don't do enough dps :P

    I find that most arguments against parsers on these forums are made by assuming that a correlation implies causation ("I saw a guy be mean this one time, therefor harassment" "I saw someone misinterpret the data, therefor people won't be able to use it" etc.).

    Relying on your own experience to inform your own personal opinions is one thing. Expecting other people to be swayed by it is entirely another. Which is why it's not a very respected way to debate/discuss/argue.

    I'm still waiting for a better argument than "I have a feeling it might be the case" for why anyone thinks parsers will cause any increase at all (let alone significant increase) in harassment, griefing, or just general rudeness.

    We are all making assumptions which cannot be proven till officially introduced
