I think you're missing my point entirely so, let me try to steer this in a different avenue. This is how I'm interpreting our discussion ATM.

My initial comment was the community would like to see any parser implemented and they don't care which type of parser it is (group or personal).
Your comment was the community doesn't want a group parser.

Upon re-reading the thread / data a little your comment isn't wrong. In the same token, my comment isn't wrong either. We're just having this discussion because we're pretty much misinterpreting the point the other person is trying to make.

To make it clear, while I did vote only for a Group Parser, I am not opposed to a personal parser being implemented either because players should have the tools to gauge their performance.

In the exact same token, there are definitely people who have voted for a personal parser that are not opposed to a group parser because they don't care if their numbers are seen or not seen as long as they have the tool readily available.
^ This is important because without knowing this context, we don't know how many people are actually opposed to a group parser or not. Just because someone votes for "Yes, Personal Parser" doesn't meant they oppose "Yes, Group Parser" and viceversa.

I feel your comment is skewed in bias because you're considering the data without all the context associated with it and almost feels like another option needs to be added just to see how much of the pro parser crowd are either
  1. Please, only Personal Parser due to abuse reasons
  2. Please, just give me a tool to use so I can gauge my performance

Shame we can't really add that option now but I hope you understand my point.
