parse for ps4 users !

Why is it that SE added an examine feature, which lets anyone who stands near you, or anyone just viewing your lodestone profile, look at your gear? They can track your progression, your effort and your worth.

Imagine if players didn't have the option. You suddenly can't see why your groups aren't reaching DPS checks, no one can single out anyone, because of glamour. Just little comments between each pull like "push the dps harder guys, we can do it this time." Isn't that nice?... but you're still failing content because someone, who although is a good player, is not so good as to keep up with the 20 iLevel difference between themselves and every other party member, but thinking about it, isn't being able to see someone's gear an atrocious and overstepping violation of freedom?

Alternatively, being able to examine someone lets you look at gear to set goals for, to see what other players of your class consider BiS or just the neat Glamour they are using; to be admired and to be shown new things, isn't this that same violation of privacy and privilege?

People don't kick people in average content for poor dps, because of parsers, they do because they are asses. The examine feature is enough for the toxic players to decide your worth.

In raid content, it's the same except others can't really bully through it to help carry the extra weight from the dps gaps and the party will just collapse.

I would love a parser to help me track improvement, figure out where my dps wanes and therefore where to improve.

I know this won't change the mind of anyone who is against parsers, but my message is just a reiteration of: Parsers and Examine Character are tools and toxic players will always need the special snowflake attention from harassment, tools just make it easier to justify it to themselves.
