This is why this game should'nt get a parse

If we want to talk rules, you’re posting with an account that doesn’t belong to you, which is technically against the rules...

not really, he signed in and he was posting and I am posting a little bit because of what that person just said about not knowing anything I took over for a second how is that against rules?

The account is mine I own it I am the owner posting, but I gave it to my cousin he replied to someone else and I allowed him to so yeah its my account I bought it if im right here allowing him and me to post.

Gleipni :
Quoted me with "blabla" You're obviously disrespectful overall and even didn't get what I meant by giving as much as the 3 others and start talking about balance according to classes. I said I agree with you if the guy is a real burden, but better not pay attention about that part of my message, right? It's because of people like you discussions are annoying, you are the real problem, you remove parts of messages on purpose just to be right. Not well interpreting what I said doesn't help, but at least I think it's not made on purpose.

And btw, ""why should we bother taking someone so bad while other DPS do great ?" Is not the same logic. I wasn't talking about statics which are made to be between friends (so people who will listen to you without being offended for nothing), or to be between good players, so you have to get rid of that person not good enough for your expectation of your static. So yes, get rid of him. Meanwhile, if it's a random, then here is the why you bother taking him : because you didn't picked him. So just kick or restart if the content is unclearable because of that player, it's just obvious.

I do this is my cousins account he is sitting right here behind me playing.

I have played FFXI since beta and this for a long time don't jump the gun.

then again I didn't have to let you know that at all why you all getting up in arms over using parse versus people anyways when its against the rules?
Then again never mind I don't wanna reply to how right you are and how its good for the community and how everything will be nice if you had one lol so never mind.

... what?

I do hope you aren't logging in with your cousin's account since that is against the rules and apparently, you have to follow them exactly. Regardless, you seem to have conveniently ignored the part where Yoshida himself has watched raiders stream FFXIV with parsers active. If they were that rigid about parsers, why would the producer not step in and ban all of them? According to you, he should have.

Hey man, even if its consensual it's still against ToS to have somebody else use your account. Really sucks when your only argument is word of law, and somebody uses word of law arguments against you when in the grand scheme, neither parsing nor your use of your cousins account break the spirit of the law.

Here's my argument with what you just said - by the time you start hitting savage content, if you cannot execute your rotation while dodging the very obvious AOE markers that do show up in these fights (the ones that you have more than enough time to get out of the way of), then don't come into Savage and expect players to tolerate it. This is not so much about casuals in this game - I'm fine with that, because casuals have made FFXIV successful. However, while I don't expect perfection, I do expect a decent level of competence in Savage. By the by, essentially all of my clears on Savage and EX have come from random PUGs - and I clear a majority of the time without the anti-parser drama that I'm starting to think isn't as prevalent as some of these posters are trying to make it seem.

That technically doesn’t matter since your cousin is using an account that doesn’t belong to him, even if he has your permission, but okay. Just, if you want to enforce rules with regards to reporting people over parsing, best to follow them yourself is all I’m saying.

[Fannah]

Yes, going in Savage expect people to be good or at least to aim for improvement. Casuals wanting to stay casual shouldn't get there.

As I said, it's only a problem if they are a burden in a meaningful way.

I meant if they are bringing enough dps for real, why should they improve overall? That's all I'm saying. Don't force people to be even better when they are good enough and don't want to get into more than what they did. Being above what's needed is already good. No need to be a god.

Its my account it belongs to me and he was posting for a couple of seconds to type to that person just now no rules on me letting him type on my keyboard.

I said all of what I said before to you and everyone except that person who claimed I don't know anything, simply put he said he played ffxi and that it was my account and he knows what people use parse for wrong reasons.

Sounds to me you are grasping for straws since what I said before stuck and yes i follow rules.

It really isn't. The time it does happen, they just happen to meet the jerks that are using parsers and probably not pulling their own weight hence the harassment.

Thought you said it's your cousin's account and you have your own account with level 70s. Hmmmmmmm

I don't know what you mean with that meme, we are not all aware of it and the way it's used (just saw it was something about a mechanic of Zurvan Ex that could be skiped with enough dps).

Better learn to deal with the fact people are overall casual players in this game. Avoid playing with randoms the most you can. Some people can't even dodge big orange aoe on the ground. So don't ask them to be perfect at dps while they are focusing hard on dodging a mechanic when they certainly don't even would have a good rotation on a dummy. We proc with people from different servers we will never see again, so we have good chances to don't even see them after to talk and help in a meaningful way.

God forbid we want to hold players accountable. What terrible, awful people were are. Here's a novel idea, if you can't dodge giant orange markers, how about staying out of harder content? Why am I obligated to carry bad players just because they want to participate? Tanks and healers are not afforded the same luxury by virtue of their job. It's generally apparent when either role messes up. DPS, on the other hand, get a free pass unless someone watches their rotation or carefully words how they know their damage is abysmal. No one is asking for perfect, 95% DPS. We're asking for accountability and competency in harder content. If your damage is so low other players have to compensate for you, why is that fair?
