"Play XIV if(cont)" and"you have a responsibility to" are not statements that coexist

Personally even if the content is cleared if a dps is doing less damage then a tank or a healer claims they are healing those are valid cases to show them the numbers cause sure we cleared but that should not be an excuse for that level of poor play. Do not get me wrong you can clear content in this game carrying many people. I happen to do that myself with friends who have physical or mental limitations that prevent them from preforming. Though that is why we do not take pugs when we do it. Sure they could join PF and prob get through fine but still not cool imo.

Parser is not inherently toxic nor is showing numbers though clearing the content should not be an excuse to poor play. Not saying I expect perfect play but I expect players at max level when it comes to pugs or PF groups unless stated otherwise that everyone playing has a general idea how to play.

If you are doing the mechanics correctly without any death/hitting enrage but with relatively poor DPS compared to the majority of parsers, why is that considered poor play? PVE is supposed to be player vs environment, not a competition between you and another player.
