    Parsers don't even work using memory reading, they read network packets, which FFXIV has no way to detect since it is a passive process.

    And even if they managed to solve all of that, you can simply run FFXIV in a sandbox and interact with it from outside. Keep in mind that at this point it would already be acting much like a virus does, violating the european GDPR and also possibly causing virus scanners to (rightfully) detect it as spyware.

    If it were a simple problem to solve, it would've been solved a decade ago.

    I've worked on PlanetSide 2 and DCUO
    But yes I clearly know nothing about programming.
    You're not familiar with the concept of Sarcasm I take it?

    Sarcasm doesn't translate well over text. And the way you phrased it, didn't give us any indication you were being sarcastic. Then factor in things like autism, which changes the way we process social situations, and you can understand why it would have been taken seriously.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.

    It was pretty damn obvious to me and I actually chuckled.
