I absolutely do not want a parser. You can look at the history of other MMOs to see exactly what happens when parsers are embraced by the community or developers. It does not magically make people get better at the game or want to improve. All it does is widen the gap between “elitists” and “casuals” while making the playerbase as a whole more toxic.

But hey that’s exactly what pro-parsers want. To be able to call out a “bad” player for only doing X amount of dps and, ergo, wasting their precious time in the DF.
