Increasing number of players using 3rd party tools

[Vipes]

I'm not a fan of Addons, far too many people using them, and for what, to tell if they're top dog on the charts/parses?

You do realize there’s more addons/plugins than ACT, right? As long as it doesn’t negatively impact another person’s experience, there is no harm.
If I have a launcher that saves my login info, password included, how does that negatively affect you? Because you have to put in your password and I don’t?
If someone has a little plugin that tells them what zone they’re in over their minimap, how does that harm you? Because they know exactly the zone they’re in and don’t have to read the special font in the minimap?
If a player has a plugin that gives FFXIV a Discord Rich Presence feature, how does that hurt you? Because they can show people what character they’re on and where just by clicking on their discord name while you have to explain it all?

I could go on here but I think I made my point. There’s more than just ACT.
