I have my logs hidden and I don't believe in utilizing parsers therefore I don't join groups that do. I think if you are looking to clear EX/Savage content you are better off doing a PF and stating your needs. By joining established statics, they will have their own sets of rules.

Personally, I am only diving into EX this patch because I want the DNC chakrams for EX2. But I don't usually dip into higher-end content on a regular basis. Many players treat Savage/EX like a professional job. That's how they play. I don't personally play that way but I've just learned to find groups that suit my needs.
