    And if you honestly think this is me mad, or hostile, I can honestly say you've neither met, or spoken with me, when I'm actually either of those two.

    Either way, I'm gonna bugger off, since this echo chamber is getting rather blatant.
    But I can say with certainty, that if SE ever implements a "official" parsing tool, it'll be the day my sub ends, permanently.
    I frequent these forums pretty regularly, and I have to say I think I have found a pretty good candidate for the crankiness award.

    I don't think anyone is blind to the fact that there are people who parse and are a-holes. That being said, if someone is continually having negative experiences with people who they suspect are parsing, isn't there a chance that there might be something there worth a deeper dive? If you are laboring under the assumption that the vast majority of people who use parsers aren't complete dicks, then yeah - it does make sense to cry foul when people purport to repeatedly run into harassers and abusers.

    If anything, I feel like the people spouting the most toxic nonsense are those who bury their heads in the sand and completely eschew feedback of any kind. The super self-conscious players who will flip out if you make any kind of suggestion as to how to they could streamline their play have been the majority of my negative experiences. So...are we sure those aren't the people in the echo chamber?

    If I roll my eyes any harder, I'll give myself a headache. Bye Felicia.
