How do you think Yoshida would react to the following hypothetical regarding parsing?

This argument can easily go both ways. Its a big problem when neither party wants to meet the other where they are at because they refuse to see where they are at.

I'd disagree in Yoshi P's case considering he's learned a lot of English when he really doesn't have to. He attends fanfests and engages with players in different regions. The only other person I remember in SE actually engaging fans like that in recent times was Tabata but he's since left.

The issue for the arguments is how they're presented. It's a lot of players bickering instead of a more positive interaction. For ONCE I'd love to see a thread that discusses this topic without the "I found the bad player!" or another arguing with a less skilled player by using FF logs against them. I'd like to see a person say "you know what, it's okay to fail, but I will be happy to take the time with you to help you get better" That's a more difficult approach, because "oh you're coddling" Often solutions to getting parsers in the game wants to do an hammer and chisel to the solution when you need a gentler and more patient touch to mold it into something better.

You want your halfway point? Start sharing positive stories on how you were able to help mentor another player and was able to do it thru parsing. You found a DPS that worked their pants off so you gave them the commendation -since DPS is treated like a disposable job - easily replaced.
