Question about FFLogs

[KageTokage]

From personal experience, blocking your parses on FFlogs tends to cause more harm then good as far as how willing people will be to invite you to parties.

It is pretty annoying to be getting judged by people when you aren't actively uploading your own parses to ensure the average DPS people are seeing is actually accurate, though...

My guess is people only upload their best runs, why would they uplod bad ones? So parses other's upload might be a more realistic representation than what a person uploads themself ^^

Eh, I had a friend who ended up with a bad parse on FFlogs because one of their brainlet static teammates ended up loading the parse from their first clear of E1S. A clear where my friend ended up dead for awhile as the tank because the healer wasn't healing them and said brainlet DPS was pulling sub-optimally as well. It's rare at that level but it does happen sadly. Thankfully a few more proper runs fixed the issue but said friend was /not/ pleased when they found out.

Everyone has bad runs occasionally. Profiles without bad runs are as suspicious as businesses with only 5 star ratings... everyone knows stuff like that just doesn't happen ^^ Also everyone who runs statics etc know how to read FFLOGs. You can see someone died and you can see how they did up to that point. You can see if there is improvement from 1st logged kill (which is usually always a "barely made it" kill) to 20th logged kill etc.

Occasional bad logs literally mean nothing.
