    Replace "parser" with "guns" and this thread mirrors political debates over gun control.

    Anti parsers: we need to make it harder for violent people to get parsers.

    Pro-parsers: people will get commit violence either way. We need parsers to defend ourselves against them.

    I could care less about no parsers/damage gauges in roulettes and DF, but there should be an option for server-side pre-formed parties to utilize them in trials/raids that should be made obvious in Party Finder's menu.

    I don't care about roulette dungeons taking like 8 minutes longer. Do people seriously parse those tomestone piñatas?

    I do care about DPS-checks not being met in midcore content like primals and having no real in-game way of identifying exactly where the problem is. Story of Bismark EX's life. Sanuwas never die in time. No one is parsing? So, what do? Pick any other primal with a DPS check when it's still somewhat relevant and a lot of people will tell you how frustrating it is to constantly be held back by failing DPS checks that restart the entire fight as a consequence. Identifying where the problem lies in failing DPS checks isn't elitism (especially if you agreed to join a PF with parse/damage figures/whatever enabled), it's progress.
