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

Sounds like a lot of lies and hiding information about how bad the cheating problem is in this game. If you have to pay for cosmetics, and you are bypassing that by cheating, you are almost worse than the people using cactbot to clear normal raids. You cost square enix money, they are just coping with being "colorblind". Even though the game has adequate colorblind options in it. Even though it's okay to be limited in performance because of disabilities, these entitled western people don't really care as long as they get what they want. It's just a game right? Who cares how other people get their prestige right? Who cares about how the game world itself feels right? Mindless self indulgence is all you care about and it's pathetic. Ban all of you.

Paid cheats happen in every online game that is successful. It is illegal everywhere and square enix can legally attack anyone distributing the mods. Maybe yoshi-p says he is against stuff like ACT but actually uses it all after all. It's weird how deep the "dont ask dont tell" effect goes. This game is a joke. The people who play it are extremely dishonest and fake. It's all just a front you put on to avoid being actioned. When rules basically don't exist as long as you don't talk about breaking them, they might as well not exist at all.

This game sucks so bad and for all the wrong reasons, because it is a better game than anything else on the market if you were to exclude this issue from your judgment of it. It's to the point where I am inclined to log in for the remainder of my cancelled sub, ask people if they are modding in raid content, and report them over and over. If I show up on any parse, I will report all 7 people in the group. Then they will find out who actually parsed it and ban them.

There's no excuse for this. I paid money to play a game that has "strict" rules over addons, and now I learn that the rules are fake. What a joke. Shame on this playerbase.

Are you going to tell me when I ask "Is anyone using act or other third party addons? I want to clear content without any cheating. Please respect my fair play and either tell me or leave" Would you leave? Or would you silently ruin my experience? I'm none the wiser right? You're actually a bad person for this perspective you know? How does it feel to live life as a bad human?

Let's be clear too, there is no paranoia or fear. Just pure judgment and feelings of being so much better than you in every way that counts.
