Would you be opposed to SE implementing a program to scan for addons/parsers?

I've been playing since ARR. What's your point?


oh boy here we go...
You don't know how bad the addon problem is because you're clearly overestimating their proliferation and catastrophizing. It's not nearly as bad as you seem to want to believe it is.
This isn't a game of "sanctioned cheaters."
You're not going to find any plugins or addons or third party tools etc etc on the darkweb lmao. None of them are hiding or difficult to find or inaccessible.


Square Enix has never, at any point, supported cheating directly.


I - along with most people who know how to play the game - am not a cheater, and we're not going to be brought under any more surveillance than we already are.

I'm sure everything you say is honest and true, coming from the perspective of someone who is defending addons in an anti-addon thread. You'll have to excuse me for being incapable of believing what you say. You don't even view ACT as a cheat or a performance enhancement probably. Of course you don't view yourself as a cheat.

Let's be clear too, I only accused people of cheating when they said savage content was impossible to clear without addons after finding out that they have savage clears done. Of course they are using addons if that statement is happening. Of course they are cheating. Everyone I've accused might as well be banned.

At no point have I defended addons. I have simply pointed out the flaws in your replies.

Are you gonna cry because I pointed out that your performance matters since you're cheating and mine doesn't since I'm not?

I hate to break it to you, but your performance still matters regardless of whether or not you are doing anything that you seem to want to label as cheating. You still directly affect the rest of your group with how well you perform.

hahahahaha who was even saying this? They had to have been joking, right? You sure they weren't just messing with you?
