Would you like an in-game parser?

Hmmm odd, I only replied with a post that everyone should respect each other, yet my post was removed???

Only because the person you quoted had their post removed.

Thank you, this makes alot of sense. I was worried that I got flagged for something, while doing nothing wrong.

If you got flagged, would mostlikely be a 15 day ban or something, happened to me once

Haha yeah they log you out and let you know real quick when you've been flagged. 9/10 though if someone quotes a removed post, unless they do a *snip* quote or something similar, their post gets removed when the removed post does.

So much this... There seems to be a fear of the bully who parses but it's rarely the case! It's usually used in a productive way... Why is the monk pulling such low dps? "/p Oh hey monk! you forgot Fist of Fire!"
I've been chewed out for simply complimenting someone for their dps. I didn't mention numbers, etc just "wow, you're dmg is insane!" which the rest of the party responded with "OMG ARE YOU PARSING?! YOU"RE REPORTED ENJOY THE BAN! READ THE TOS! NO PARSE ALLOWED OMG!"

As an AST, I wouldn't know who to give Arrow or Balance if I can't see the DPS of my party members.

So guilty!! (But I don't recommend it, paying attention to the parser while fighting has never gone well for me! Like typing during a fight.)

Forgot to mention: For myself, Parsing has helped me realize that I can stay in cleric stance longer. It shows me my over heals and helped me to trust the regen.

I'm sure I'm going to get someone mad, but the truth is if you have such a big problem with parsers I'm almost 100% positive your damage output is below average and your afraid you can't lazily go through content with out putting in effort and letting others pick up your slack. That's just my opinion.

I think you are correct that people who do not want parsers are probably the ones who dont do alot of damage, but I do disagree with your suggestion that the reason why they do low dps is, because they are lazy and dont want to put in any effort. If we all think that players who are anti-parsers are against it, because they want to keep their lazy playstyle and be carried, can you realy blame them for not wanting any parsers in the game?

Do I think there are anti-parsers who are lazy? Afcourse I do. But there are also players who want to improve their playstyle or players who do not understand how to improve. Can you imagine what would happen if someone saw their dps via a parsers and called them lazy, even if they are trying their best?

I doubt we would have any anti-parsers if players were using the number to help them improve and not judge or assume stuff.

And I suppose you don't want cameras and microphones in your house because you have some drug traffic you need to hide, right ?

Now, I'm not gonna lie, his post has somewhat a truth to it, like when I was in a ravana group for bird farm a mnk did 600. How can you seriously do 600 dps at ilvl 215 ? I can hit bootshine for 2-3 min and still do the same or more. This doesn't apply to all anti parsers however. But when you gonna be that low and leech of people, nah that's lazy.
If people gonna say its a mistake in their rotation, no it's not that's not a mistake or few hits that's wrong here and there, it's pretty much the whole thing the player is doing, being lazy.
