It's more indirect for sure, but it does happen.

So what I dont want to be in you *********** POOL, pool with people that want to do it the hard way, if it get harder to get grps, tuff **** you asked for it thats what u wanted

What you claim to be "factual" or "true" isn't. You're just making stuff up.

This is your first MMO, isn't it.
I've been playing WoW since day 1. And no, I'm not making stuff up, stop being ignorant of the issues staring you in the face of your beloved LFD tool.

If you dig that sorta thing power to you, I do NOT.
I have never had to use more than 15 minutes to get a group together. You wanna know my secret? It's called socializing. I look at the who roster for people who are tagged, if I don't find the levels that is needed for the FP, I look for people in those levels. Low and behold, there they are. Lots of people in the wanted level range, so I start throwing out whispers to find out their roles and if they are interested in joining. 1 minute later, I have a full group.

Please, stop being ignorant on the side-effects of this tool. It is not optional when 20-30% of the playerbase doesn't want to use it, they will be forced to.

This is a lot harder to do if people just click away and end up in a party with a bunch of people they can't even communicate with at a later time.

I think this is what they mean by hurting the community.
Spot on

This is the issue the anti social crowd doesn't get. There is absolutely no incentive to make friends when everything is cross server with the click of a button

And the counter argument is, "you're better off finding a guild and when you're not able to do things with a guild then tools like this are available to you so that you are not wasting your time".

Furthermore, at least on my server the only time people talk is when there is a wipe. Other than that it's get in, get it done and move on. Frankly, I'm pretty darn OK with that. You may not be but that's you and again all this stuff is OPTIONAL.

I didn't say anything in any other LFD thread. My point was that I can see people on both "sides" trying to dictate their way. Your response showed that you do so as well, hence my reply of you proving my point for me. And you may wish to learn what a troll really is.

Except they still won't use the tool because they dislike it. So if no guildies are available for them to play with, and they can't find anyone local since they're all using LFD, they don't group. It's optional right, but now if they want to even get a group, they have to use it.

Will that always be the case? Not at all, but it does restrict those on the other side whether you like to admit it or not.
