    And yet I see far more toxicity from the casual side than parse advocates. Calling out someone for essentially getting carried isn't abuse.

    "Uh, what's going on, DRG? Your damage is way lower than it ought to be."
    "Are you a dumbass? Just uninstall the game if you're gonna play like shit."

    Both statements reference a parse yet only one could be reasonably labeled toxic. In the event parsers were ever implemented, the latter statement could and should be reported. Assuming the GMs do their job, said player would get a warning. So...

    I firmly believe many people don't even realize how poor their performance is because this game does absolutely nothing to relay that information to the player. You have to rely on third parties for rotation guides and advice. On more than a few occasions I've talked to people after a run that I at least somewhat know and they've been shocked that what they were doing wasn't the proper rotation.
