Why are low standards for dps acceptable?

That really only applies to downloaded parsers that you go out of your way for though, rather than ones already put in games. Though I think more are likely to improve their dps if one is put in. Other things like Damage in can also make people see that maybe they should dodge when their damage in is double every other dps.

Ah yes I should of stated that I was talking about downloaded parsers as thats all we really have at the moment. My bad.

One of the parsers available atm has triggers to alert you when certain mechanics are happening by reading the battle log and playing a noise or a text-to-speech deal. So I'd say you'd have more likelyhood of having someone who does parse not ignore mechanics than someone who doesn't parse. Parsing itself, though, doesn't really have an impact on who ignores mechanics or doesn't - people usually only check their parse at the end or after a wipe to see where everyone is at. During the actual fight they're concentrating on performing.
