getting kicked from end game pfs as soon as I join?

gonna be honest not sure how that defeats my point when the very first line of your quote says those things can be considered personal data. and as personal data would fall subject to privacy laws and GDPR.

This is why so many websites now throw cookie policies in your face when you visit them and won't even let you continue browsing the site untill you have accepted them or set your privacy preferences.

It's not that they're considered private or sensitive. it's that they're considered personal data. my game name being public information doesnt mean its not personal information. as stated in my previous post.

also as stated earlier. you give SE consent to use hold that information when you accept it's Terms and conditions. That consent however does not carry over to FFLOGS or any other third party which is why I like many others have said fflogs should be "Opt In" not Opt Out. because I haven't given fflogs explicit consent to hold data on me or my online id (character). and I doubt SE has actually given explicit consent either (espeically so given there official stance on parsers and third party tools)

It's a third party Parser, which is against SE's Terms of Service. If they wish to use it, let them.

If anyone asks me to purvey them a Log and I get kicked, I will report them. By then, it's out of my hands and into the Devs.

Let these guys win the argument and take your wisdom to where it's truly needed: in the game.

Regardless, you're right on the money on everything you said.

So...allow me to take this to a logical thought. Were I to start thinking like this, if I were still seeking a static at this time in a PF and got rejected and then kicked because what they say weren't up to their standards, reporting them is the next best step and then letting the devs handle it from there? Is that pretty much the gist of what you're saying? Just wanna make sure I got that right before I actually finish up my response.

I would agree if some people weren't so salty about everything when it comes to pick up. When playing with randoms don't come in with high expectations. Always found it odd about the people joining a pug and expect a good/perfect run every time is all.

When it's raid night and a random tank fills in for a weekly on O10S, and that tank can't even be bothered to mitigate the tank busters, or switch when necessary after three runs...

When a DPS fills in and they repeatedly die to the fireballs or don't even pass the Arcane Bulwark when they get the orange marker, or drop an ice marker right in the party stack when Ahk Morn is about to come out...

...or someone coming in that can't handle the very first Flamethrower or is constantly failing the first Larboard/Starboard, when our PF clearly says Panko 1 prog...

But yeah, it's a surprise to expect competence...
