parse for ps4 users !

[Whiteroom]

I suggested opt-in parsing where parsing is available in-game, but each player can choose whether or no to participate by optinG in -- setting in their options. This was shot down by suggestions ranging from people saying they would kick anyone 'hiding' their numbers and that it would lead to more toxicity, to people who demanded to be able to see the numbers for players who did not opt in.

God I hate doing this on a phone. It really is a hassle, especially with the 1000 char limit.

I did not see anyone suggest they would kick based on someone not using a opt in parser. What I did see, were these words, which I can quote if you really want me to:

In the event of a failure due to dps checks not being met, they would kick the one who was hiding their dps.

Now that player has shown themselves not to be completely incompitent with regards to parsers, so I made the obvious conclusion that this was to have the unnessasary add on of:

As long as nothing was glaring wrong with the visible parsed dps.

Now as for yours second paragraph there. It was stated that you were, "ironically" as you like use, making an adjustment to parsers, that would have the effect of giving that abusive portion of the community a target. Your whole thing is abuse, and you make a suggestion that would make the tool more prone to abuse, than less prone, which you should be doing. And then you, oh so grandly, turn aroun and say "I thought they didn't cause abuse!"

Now I keep bringing up that "human nature" statement for various reasons:

1. You say it to me for saying people who do not know they are playing poorly are likely to try to improve if they find out they are. And then turn around and ignore the very obvious point of how people would view a team member who hides their contrabution in failing content.

2. You state that you dont put people down, yet that is your introductory statement.

3. You continually point out only negative behaviour of human nature, and ignore positive. That ironic word again.

Now the suggestion of seperate queues fully negates the negatives of your "solution" and also has the effect of removing any of those a-hole from harrasing people, unless they intentionally join the other queue to troll. Yet you discard it. This also take the people who would hide their numbers to cover a lack of effort out of the hair of people who do want to show their numbers.
