    Met a tank last night in Alex 1 normal to get my bolt and he shouted that one healer didn't do any dps (a whm), and kept harassing that healer until we kill the oppressors, "can you at least throw some stone 3 cant you, lazy ass" etc etc
    He even harassed a ninja because my DPS (a smn) was higher than the ninja when we were doing single target. The ninja left but we still managed to finish it. The tank said "good riddance"
    My second time I've seen this happen in Alex 1.

    and this kind of story is the precise reason I do not want a in-game parser that shows party dps. individual dps, sure, but party numbers, no

    Plot twist: that tank was not running a parser, but neither was no-one else, He shouted out those remarks about people not pulling their weight, and because no-one else was running a parser, no-one could disagree.

    My point: Very rarely on these posts (god knows there are enough of them about parsers) do people consider that harassment MIGHT decline if we all had a parser. I play on PS4... in any content I'm in, someone can say I'm pulling great/abysmal dps and I have absolutely no idea if they are right or whatever, I must just accept what they say on blind faith, because I have no parser. If we all had equal access to parse, sure their might be some that use it to harass (but then we currently do anyway, as per your anecdote), but there might be less people calling others out when we can see THEIR numbers too
