If running a parser makes you cynical and depressed, why do it?

[Goji1639]

I've met different kinds of parser users. But I don't have enough data to make such an assumption or to consider my observations as facts as you're doing. See the difference? Maybe you consider it a matter of security to state something even without enough evidence to back it up. But in my case, it's considered a matter of ethics that you do not report something as a fact without any evidence. If you feel the need to state something even without proof just to feel secure, then you shouldn't be taken seriously as I stated in my first response.

Also, why do you think parsers are being threatened? Yoshi P knows people are using them and is OK with them. So I don't see any signs of threats at all. Any player that abuses others with parsers would be reported and actions would be taken against them. But guess what? GMs need evidence, not your personal experience. If you can't provide that, then the GMs won't bother.

I never stated that anything said here was a fact; again, you're just strawmanning so you can maintain an irrational position. I've already stated this is just my opinion.

Also, SE obviously cares about parsers; since even mentioning you use one is grounds for a ban. They're just not actively hunting people down for using them.
