I really don't get this *extremes*.
One side it's what we currently don't have (a global LFG channel, a good LFG tool).
On the other side there is the cross realm LFD tool.
Couldn't we met somewhere in the middle?

A global server LFG channel would be such a simple way of doing it.
Some friends that I play with in SWTOR were met years ago in other MMOs in LFG global channels. I really don't understand how they didn't gave us global channels yet.

Cross server tools are what provide the anonymity that leads to community decay.
Community decay is inevitable, LFD tool or not.

I'd take a global channel...anything, even on harbinger getting a group together is torturous.

Not having your real name is what leads to community decay.

I suggest you try Facebook instead, it appears to be the type of game you're looking for.

Keep pushing that crusade son.
Welcome to life. One big match of gathering people for activities. I have to hire more people at work. I have to convince more people to join the Fire Hall, more people to go to church, more people to play on the flag football team.

Interacting with humans in such a way is how our voluntary society came about. Most people wouldn't like it if some matchmaker randomly assigned them teammates (whether that be in marriage, at a job, or wherever) so why that has to be the norm on an MMORPG confuses me.

At least with having to form a pug you have to live up to a bit of e-rep.
People are mostly mindless jerks already, moreso among the current gen of MMO players.

Would you like me to destroy any of your other points?
Wrong, flashpoint couriers are on each planet. Finding a group for a flashponit levels 1-48 would be much easier to do from the planet in which you first get the quest for the FP and not in fleet. Why? Because that is where you will find other players that are your level who may be looking for those FP's.

At level 50, FP and Ops can be searched for in one of a couple places, Fleet or Ilum. At level 50, finding a HM FP and ops is easy to do in both places. People are constantly trying to do dailies.


Destroyed my arguments? Hardly. Now you just look like a noob who hasn't played the game at all.

Every thread where the OP claims to speak for a whole group of people is costing you credibility.
