Give me a legitimate reason to NOT have a LFD tool.

Still not seeing the legit reason that can't be countered by the fact that the LFD tool is a choice.

People can group with the random whoevers using the tool or ask guild/friends and not use the tool.

Doesn't change the fact that there are no good reasons NOT to have a LFD tool outside of Anti WoW Fanboys.

Why exactly should I make the effort to list them again?? Do you have something against going back just a few pages and reading what others and myself have typed here?? You want another list so you can ignore that too?? Just in the last couple of pages a number of reasons have been posted.. Now want another one??

Not likely.. If you are going to participate in a forum, it requires that you read what others say.. I am not going to do it for you.. Have a nice day..

agin just showing someone there are more than 2 ways to find a group.

I agree we need a LFG tool. But ONLY if it has OPTIONS. A simple que system is not good enough IMO.

Because you think they actually exist, and want to communicate with other people.

If on the other hand, your goal is try and detract from the lack of valid arguments, or to troll, or you just don't care about communicating with people... then you won't bother.

I've read them. If that's all you've got, then I stand by my statement: there hasn't been a single objective reason posted against the lfd tool.

Quote:

No, I want another list so that I can go through and either say "yes, thats' an objective reason" or "no, that's not an objective reason, that's an X because of Y.

Quote:

Which ones didn't I rebut?

Eh, I've read them. None of the ones i've read meet the requirements. There are opinions. And fear and supposition. And false statements and read herrings. But no objective reasons.


Edit: I notice you didn't say what sentence I edited out... did you miss that? Or did you change your mind?

People will start skipping content more and more, and soon, devs won't care that much about content anymore.

Problem:

Those in favor of cross realmLFG tool, are ignoring there is a secondary effect to the tool.

While you ignore there is an issue, you cant find the solution, nor can you see the good reasons why its a bad idea.

You cannot solve a problem by just creating a new one. You have to solve both.

So, try to be creative and think of solutions for the issue at hand, instead of just trying to diss that there is an issue that is OBVIOUS to everyone who played an MMO with this system or know a bit of Sociology and how communities work.

Is there? What secondary effect is that?

No, if the problem you create isn't as bad as the original one, then fixing one is a way to do it.

I've played an MMO, and I took psychology and sociology (and some related, via Humanities) back in college. I don't know what you're talking about.

And thats how the pro lfd people are acting with the current tool.

I don't like it so I wont use it so it doesn't work.

As they watch LFG spam across chat but refuse to whisper back because that involves talking to someone.
