Healers need an overhaul

Also your dps uptime isn't 96%, I notice your static uses logs, so to see uptime you need to plug those into https://xivanalysis.com/

Sigh... voice my opinion and FFLogs is tossed at me...

Airight... I'll go back to lurking and keep my head down, I'll let the 96%+ DPS up time people talk.

Well that just broke my heart.

I can't exactly speak for Liam, but I doubt that they meant anything harmful or to invalidate you (considering that, prior to that, they had actually chosen to go through each of your post's discussion points). If anything, you could have ignored that part and just chosen to continue in the discussion anyway, and just chosen to talk about the other 3/4ths of his reply to your post.

That's what I'd do. I barely heal anymore, and when I do, it's barely coherent since I just don't care (and we still succeed, go figure, haha~). That doesn't mean I'm not going to send messages to Square Enix on a weekly basis reminding them that healing is a boring chore and that this bleeding of healing veterans won't cease until it no longer is.

Is that all you take from it?
It wasn't even an insult, just a bit of information to prevent a very common mistake: mixing up fflogs "active" with actual uptime. I've seen countless people think they're close to 100% uptime because they thought that's what the "active" part meant but xiva is the tool to go with if you want to take a closer look at how you performed and where you could improve if you want to.

You make it sound as if someone tore you apart over logs and told you to not even post here but there were some good points and a bit of information that's easy to miss. Nothing was "tossed at you". You interpreted something wrong judging by your "96+ dps uptime" (which you mentioned first) and that happens and now you know which tools to use to get the correct information if you want to. Nothing keeps you from posting here.

And the main problem with not being able to heal more isn't that you're forced to dps and do huge dps numbers but rather that there simply isn't more to heal. Just look at p6s and the laughably long gaps between damage. Most raidwides have at least 30s between them with several cases of 60s and even close to 90s. What else can you do but spam dps? There is literally nothing to heal, that's why you can't heal more.
And right now you can still sit well below the dps uptime you mentioned and your group clears just fine.
