Because you can clear most fights with a lot of party members gray parsing (doing poor damage), and I'm really curious how, if JP players are playing to optimize, how they are going about doing that because the game itself does a pisspoor job of telling you how to play your job, much less learn an optimized rotation (staring hard at BLM here...).

Another key in this topic is basically, do the JP players consider ACT and FFLogs cheating or not. Not any other combat mod, specifically ACT for the purposes of analyzing damage numbers.
