    They don't need to tell you "you have X DPS, therefore you are bad, therefore you are kicked" to... kick you. If they have that number available to them through a 3rd party program, know that you're parsing low, and want to kick you they will just come up with a different excuse. As long as they don't explicitly say the quote (or some other variation) then they're in the clear. So the only thing that would change for them is they would say "you're parsing low bye" instead of coming up with another excuse. Nothing would actually change in that regard, if parsers can harm the community then they already are.

    I think that they can, depending on their use. I would certainly trust the df and community less, as you are right, no one needs to say anything to kick people. I do believe that kicking people will happen more often and more frivolusly.
