Frankly they are the only ones that can judge if its a success or not because they have cold hard numbers to show its success. They collect the in game numbers that players personal experiences can not counter. Numbers are un biased and show the truth.
You know why everyone was running it? It wasnt for what they made it for. Blizzard made LFR so that all players could see the content.

The reason people ran it was

1. Elite guilds ran it 15-20 times in the first week to gear up their mains for world progression
2. People ran it to get gear that was better than T11 heroic gear while having to put in zero effort

The experiment of LFR failed for its intended purpose. Blizzard not wanting to admit it was a failure called it a success because everyone was running it.
If this game is so great then why do so many people that love the game spend all their time in the forums?

Why does it have to que you? Why can't I just look at a list of people who want to run and grab them? A que makes it feel like MW or some other FPS.

It kills silver hand server. The bad taste in everyone's mouth from using it caused much of the server to quit, with no in server grouping, guilds began to fall apart from no recruitment. What was once a thriving server that down content within weeks of addition became a ghost town.
Wow was copying Mario Brothers in every respect.

here posting my 100% support for a cross server lfg system!
There is no good reason NOT to have one just biased people with no facts! just personal experiences that were biased to not liking it to start with. Notice the ones saying from day one they knew they wouldnt like it in the wow system. People who want to find bad will find it even if it doesnt exist they will fabricate or exaggerate!

Grandiose much? I never once ran into a over the top #$%hole or a ninja the entire time I ran RDF in WoW, I have serious doubts it'll be the 80-90% you claim.
Just because I do not care, does not mean I do not understand.

Oh look, it's this thread again. I foresee a rehash of the other thread to happen here at some point.

Go.
