Please SSG, no more nerfs. Thank you!
I know you may be thinking, why would a parser be controversial?
First let's define what a Parser is: It's a script that (usually) attaches to your client (much like custom UI's that the majority of you here use) and that calculates things like DPS by each player, Damage Taken by each player, Heals done to another player by each player, overall Damage done etc. etc.
I swear to you, I have seen entire guilds -decades old- get decimated because of 'the Parser'.
I have seen people quit over 'the Parser'.
I have heard the most elitist, stuck-up, and rabidly compeitive players and guilds scream at each other over voice coms because of 'the Parse' or 'the Parser'
But...
It would bring the game's compeititive ruler to the next level.
Who cares about R10 completions when everyone knows your DPS stick is leagues beyond any other player on your server.
It reveals all and raises those few deserving to the status of gods and lays low those charlatans and pretenders to the depths of shame.
Gentlemen, let me tell you. It's the most sublime form of ego stroking you will ever experience in a video game.
Is DDO ready for a unofficial/official parser?
