    I don't think SE will ever change their stance on parsers because of the "Koike Incident".

    A female player and celebrity named Miyu Koike, who also happened to be the host for FFXIV’s official Nico Nico channel show, had an incident she attempted to recruit 7 other players to play with her (this was broadcasted live at that time).

    Abyss of Darkness, a world 3rd Japanese group for Final Coil clear then sneaked into the party (6 of them), streaming themselves through an unofficial channel and then made fun of Koike through slanders, spinning the boss around, and made fun of her DPS performance. Worse, Koike was also sexually harassed when the party disbands.

    This prompted the Japanese community to punish the group sending hundreds of naked Roegadyns (Hageruga Matsuri, see below). As a result, these trolls ended up changing their names, servers, deleted their Twitter accounts, issued a non sincere apology through their Nicovideo live broadcast (which further angered the community).

    Finally the group ended up a temporary ban given by the lead community representive, Foxclon himself.
    So for people saying, "Oh the whiners are too afraid to find out how bad they are!", think again. I wish we could have an official parsing tool myself because I want to know how well/bad I'm doing! But I 100% understand why SE has banned them after reading that story.

    this insident happened years ago once ONCE and the fact that people use parsers to support this event baffled me, the girl got heavily trolled by a dedicated group of jackasses who went ahead to deliveraly troll the girl in any way possible, she got mocked, sexually harrased and insulted and people care about them telling her dps is low really? gotta appreciate were peoples priorities is, but the point is, wether they had parsers or not, she was going to get mock insulted and sexually harrased which is way worse than making fun of her dps, parsers had nothing to do with that event. theose people knew what they were doing. So people stop using this example ti justify why yoshi-p don't want parsers in the game.
