I forsee about a week after a LFG tool is released people moaning about bad and needy players etc. Just create a channel on your server eg /cjoin glfg if you can get enough people to start using it you can shout out to the whole server, after a while you get to know people better. It also gives you the ability to look at who is recruiting. If its someone you know isnt upto the job then you can just ignore the request easy enough!

Like a blind man who never saw the sun, didn't you ever actually tried to think about alternate ways to ask to people ? Whispering, chatting, friend listing ... ?

And more generally, how is it so hard to put the same energy at writing long sensationalist texts like that than at trying to find different ways to form a group ?

You LFD people a paradox by yourself : you don't want to talk to people ingame, but you've never been so vocal than in those forum topics. LOL

I am saying the same thing over again because its a very valid point. You are also wrong, using the LFD is never mandatory. You can still group with your guild and friends. How does the LFD impact that?

I grouped with my guild all the time, just used the LFD if no one else was around.
because i believe that you are an idiot.

have a nice night, im out.

Sadly this...

Plx BW do not put in a lfg tool, the only thing that would be rly helpfull tho is a way to port ppl to the entrance of a flashpoint.

If you think this game is a WoW clone then go back to WOW.

WOW never had story telling and voice acting

Spamming the same 3 words (DPS LFG blahblah) over and over is not talking!

Staying at the station spaming the general chat with LFG is not "getting friends". It is simply dead play time.
Only fanbois and trolls think it is good for the game having people waiting for an houre to get flashpoint.
I was asking him what his point is in opposing the tool, you're arguing my point.

I do not understand the idea that "LFG This and this" is positive social interaction and adds to the community, it's just that, a more slow and more annoying way of doing exactly what the tool does. If the tool is server specific, which should be more than enough in a game this new, you would be able to talk with people and forge friendships just as before. You just get the group together in a faster, more efficient manner.

Congratulations ! you are now level 2 of 100 on the social ladder !

Hint : spamming like a robot is not what we anti-LFD call "socialising" either. Actually most of us don't have to spam more than 2 times in a row, as a matter of fact. STRANGE ISN'T IT ? :O

Jupp, that helps, whispering random people asking them to do flashpoints.
And yes I talk to people in game. I talk to people in the general chat. I stand outside the flashpoint with the totally useless and stupid "LFG" thingy over my head.
What more do you want me to do? Use shouts and caps lock?
LFG XXXXXXX FLASHPOINT, HELP ME OR YOU ARE AN IDIOT FANBOI!!!1111!!!!

Think that will help?
