You gonna pay for my server transfers? Oh wait, I don't want to *********** transfer from the server I love. You just made this personal to me. And I'm not "forcing" anyone to do anything. My suggestion is to offer a better tool. So sorry if the modern age is SO SCARY.
You, You, You - thats what I am hearing all the time... Its very sad that you must act like you do. Im just guessing you are very young still so to tolerate peopleīs opinions or to actually compromise is very hard for you, cant blame you, its natural at a younger age but I hope you will change that behaivour soon, also to your own intrestīs.

Also if your server would be so cool as you say, how come you dont even know 3 people there? Somehow this sounds very weird to me, playing on the best server but not finding groups ^^

So glad you speak for every *********** person on your server. Thanks to the almighty, holy, RachelAnne, dictator of all RP servers and speaker of the one true opinion. Who says all RP people don't want/need a break from RP-ing and want to run a quick Flashpoint? Oh yeah ONLY YOU.
You can insult me as much you want, but that "childish" acting does not help anyone, especially not BW. They will just ignore your postīs then.

I dont want to offend you, but ya I dont think it makes much sense to actually try to discuss this with you as you are not going into this whole discussion a bit.

I said that on my server nobody has ever requested such a tool, which is what I have encounterd by playing there.
We got a working system and as far I know a lot other servers have such a working system as well. There even once was a thread here at the forum, where people had the servers listed and the global LFG chat channel - but unfortunately that thread was blown away by such threads like this one here.

I never said anything about your server, as I cant judge this. And the word guess does actually mean that I think this would be a good idea, it does not have anything to do with a dictator as you have thought.

The current LFG tool, as you call it, is complete crap. And a global chat channel does what? Allow people to spam the chat and still get no groups for ALL OF THE REASONS WE'VE BEEN SAYING FOR 1000 POSTS!?!

Don't know why I didn't do this sooner. /ignore
You said you need to sit at the fleet forever. I did prove you are a liar, its not my fault that you cant take the truth


As said, I will end this here for now. You are not able to compromise or talk things out without insulting me all the time, because of this I wish you a good night and wont discuss this with you any further.

Come with me children, as we go back. Way back to the year of two-thousand and eight. Where communities flourished like so many rose petals in the wind. Where just mentioning the word group in a channel of chatting raised the banner of glory and people would flock to you to vanquish all evil. Before the rise of the evil tools of looking that would destroy our beautiful and harmonious ways.

If anyone now name that tool, he shall be banished into the crafts of war, never to be heard of again!

Be gone, foul spirit! There shall never be such evil tools of looking in our wars among the stars! Be banished! Never to be spoken of again!

Edit to add: Thanks she who shall not be named for reporting my post. That'll stop me.

You won't have one, we will.

WE will use it while you will be grouping with all of the players you were grouping with BEFORE the OPTIONAL tool was added.

It is an OPTIONAL tool - IE: if you don't want to use it because you already can find groups without it, then you do NOT HAVE TO use it.

NOT ONE player here is telling you that you have to use the bloody tool - YOU are telling US that since YOU don't want to use/have no need for a tool that you will NOT HAVE TO use, that we CAN'T use the tool either, however.

So, what, you want us to just sit around and WISH we had a group while you and your groups have a good time?

Someone needs to force you to not group up, see how you like being told you can't do what you want to do in a video game.

If "community building" was a priority for BW there would be server specific forums -- ya know, to build community.

Why would you not create a LFD to "build community", and then not build sever forums that would "build community"? Seems counter intuitive but those have a a common tread, the word "not". Not doing something frees up money, time, and other resources to do other things.

I think BW knows this tool is needed, they just wanted to push it off for a year or so and the anti-LFD mantra of "it builds community" provided the smoke screen.
I've had very similar thoughts on the matter
Our lack of a proper LFD tool will black out the sun!

No its not Option. Go to the WoW forums about their current LFD tool. Everyone and their brother is saying is Forced other then people like you that think is perfect. Anyone that plays MMOs to Play MMOs and have friends knows and explains its a terrible tool.

I do play at an RP server too, we have a good community there and believe it or not - nobody has ever cried for a LFG tool there.
Thats why I think RP servers should be exluded from such tools, as there people actually want to talk to each other, those that want to use it, dont want to RP anyways - or do you really think you can roleplay in these LFD groups?

Also I am not sure why you sit at the fleet, this is your lack of knowledge about the LFG tool that is in the game right now.
Just /join 4 and you are in the global LFG channel. There is no need to stay at the fleet to talk.
It's you again ... sigh

How the heck is anyone going to force you to use an LFD tool?

Someone gonna come to your house and stick a gun in your face and say "use it or die!" or something?

There is some degree of forcing which we can work on to find a compromise that fits everybody but you guys who don't want a LFD of any form are a very small miniority of the playerbase. You shouldn't be fighting a battle you can't win, instead we should be finding ways to make it so as many people as possible win.

This is a bit like the "pro addon" argumentation

If you dont want it, dont use it. But its still in the game and does still have an influence.

I tried to explain earlier why I think that things like Bonus rewards, disabled lockouts are pretty much a must have for such tools.
This will then give all these people who dont use it to queue up, a major disadvantage. At the wow forum was once a discussion, where people were mad that they had to run 2 or 3 LFD groups a week, to keep up with the valor cap.

Also dungeons then must be lowered in their demand of skill, as understandable a LFD group will not perform as good as a self made one.
Again this will limit the gaming quality of those who dont use it, just look at wow - there you can almost solo all 5mens now as a good player, thats just no fun for guild groups or small friends groups.

It is unfortunately not that easy as you think it is


Those of us who see these things might look to you as somekind of enemy, but in the end we just want to show you the consequences about such tools and we try to offer alternative solutions, which help you too but dont destroy the fun for others.

BW does know that a helping hand is not a bad thing, but I am guessing they do also know that a simple solution like at wow is not the best way to go. If it would be, then the tool would had been in the game from the start - that it was not, does show their conerns very well, concerns that go much further than just the "kill community" argument of some here.

Guys, do not lose focus in this discussion, this is the goal we are working towards. We just need Bioware to test out X-server PvP brackets first.
