If you don't like being target for violating TOS...how about don't violate the TOS?

I don't care your stance on it. Don't do it. It's against the rules. Until the rule gets changed I'm going to report people when I see it. Sometimes it's not about how "harmless" something is. Things are often against the rules for a reason and being dismissive about it just makes you look spoiled and selfish. I'll gladly report anyone I see with it.

I hope you report people for Sleeping in a hotel room with someone of the opposite sex or flying a kite in public or sweeping dirt into the street, because rules exist for good reasons.

The anti-parser rule exists for one reason, and one reason only. It's been stated by YoshiP. FFXIV doesn't have damage parsers because ONE celebrity got harassed with low numbers ONE time years and years ago, and therefore parsers are evil and toxic and should never be allowed in the game.

So clearly, if someone's using one and not harassing anyone with it, that means it's EvilBadWrong and must be stopped. Because its existence is the problem.

If it's against the rules I'll report. Not gonna change my stance on it.

ABNER, ABNER! Something strange is going on over at the Stevens' house!

Okay Gladys Kravitz. Keep poking that old lady with binoculars nose into other peoples' business. They're definitely ruining your gaming experience by having fun over there.

Why would I attempt to change a mind that's already proudly closed? You don't have a logical reason why it's against the rules, other than "because it's against the rules".

People who tattle on other people for victimless offenses that don't affect them in the slightest are obnoxious busybodies. And I'm not going to change my stance on that.

So you're being condensing to me for disagreeing? How in what way is that acceptable behavior? You're trying to school me but are being kind of a jerk about it.

[Nav_Fae]

Why should they bother trying to change your mind?

Your opinion won't change and neither will ours.

As long as we don't end up raiding with you - you can't try to report and boot us from the game. It's a win-win. You don't deal with potential parsers and we don't deal with you.

You indirectly are confessing that you use third party tools.

Report me then - since you’re so eager to do so.

Are you seriously clutching your pearls over someone being rude when you're saying you'll happily try to make others lose their characters and thousands of hours because they do something that doesn't affect you?
