Nice backpedal there.

No, there will be an average healer wait time, and average tank wait time, and and average dps wait time.

so... you can't find a math mistake?

You can make a subjective one. Or one based on opinion.

I've yet to see an objective, fact based one though.

how?

you just don't understand how it works, stop posting
No you're making the pressumption that any 4 players can run an instance or that theres always equal amounts of those 4 roles looking to group. I've heard this bad argument before many times. Its you who just doesen't get it.

This just looks like tap dancing to me.

9 groups form, in one 60 minute queue; the average wait time is 6:40.

Some may have forgotten your tirade against casuals emada, why don't you enlighten us again why you really don't want too successful a tool.

Theres no mistake in the math your trying to use but what does it matter when your premise is false?

There would still be a 20 minute average wait. The least popular class/role wouldn't wait at all and the most popular class/role might as well spam for a group.

raid is still there, still in server and still raid is what matter in PvE not 5ppl dungeon, no one care that you is best healer or best tank in eazy-mode dungeon…

You have seen them but you have ignored them

The system I listed that you quoted this from gives more than the WoW style LFG sytstem and removes many of the problems that that system produces. The only thing that it doesnt do is make the group automaticaly, which will also prevent bots from autoaccepting and afking the entire run.

This system will not prevent you getting those players in some cases but the leader can kick them without a kick timer since he formed the group.

But because you lable me as a hater you will just pick certain things I say and comment on them and not actually read it all.

I dont like the game but that doesnt mean I dont want it to get better.
If this game is so great then why do so many people that love the game spend all their time in the forums?

What does the insistence that people will still need to wait matter when they wont be waiting anywhere near as long and will be free to do as they please instead of spamming general and pestering people through who searches?
