That just shows how much of an idiot you are. The problem with those sites is they don't really tell you much..

You cannot for example look at a parse and be like ok that players dragoon is i1000 and has an i950 weapon. And gear is a major component in damage.. especially with the games power creep..

So while you look at a parse and conclude that players terrible. Maybe they're not. Maybe they're playing the job properly but don't really chase the treadmill to much. It's tedious af having to rebuild every job every patch..

Also It doesn't take much to drop you from let's say 90th percentile right down to the 60s or 50s. Sometimes just 10-20 levels. And if your in the 50s your basically "average"

Also why many players pad the level requirements on pf groups because gear goes along way to cover for a bad player.

I do very much agree with the op that these things should be opt in. Not opt out. And any player dated from players not opted in should be anonymized. And show as "unknown dragoon" or something.

Did I said that someone with 99 parses is a good player ? No
Will I cancel an apply because he doesn't have logs, absolutely yes

and no matter what you say, hardcore/semiHC static will always find a way to only recruit people that know how to press buttons and be consistent/fast learner
