I would like to be able to log on, click a couple buttons, and be playing something. I know its a lot to ask, but I guess I have higher expectations of a game then most. For all the people talking about how it breaks from immersion.. give me a break.. are you saying that posting in fleet chat for an hour with "LF1M healer for <insert FP or OP here>" is enhancing your immersion experience into SWTOR. Come on.. Things need to be made for those that like things fast and simple, and make the people who want to make things complicated work around that. I know people dont want to hear that.. but its the only way to compete. edit: removed the overly insulting part. sorry, long day at work, no excuse though. You are spot on though. Spamming general and getting crickets in response is not community building. The critics have made some good points so I do support the tool having some anti-ninja coding such as limiting need rolls to gear that can be used by your AC, etc.

I remember in WoW where if you weren't in one of a certain small number of guilds, you didn't raid, period (and it was that way on every realm I played on). Then X-server LFG came along and all of a sudden many more guilds had peole geared enough to raid. Suddenly, those 'elite' guilds didn't feel so special anymore. That, IMHO was a great thing!

I'm not saying it's the sole destroyer of server community. but it certainly does not help it. And as you can see, most people do want some kind of LFG tool, just not x-server. Uber fail analogy attempt there. And how does spamming LFG and getting crickets in return enhance the community feeling?

No. After they're done with their current server transfer progression, it'll be unnecessary. I won't get into the fact that almost 98% of my x-server LFG experiences are all bad. The difference between a same-server LFG and a X-server LFG is astounding. The loss of culpability makes a huge difference.

You're getting near the truth of why some people don't want this tool. This tool opens the door for many to get the same gear the Dungeon Dwellers tooks countless hours to aquire. Than there are others who argue against it in ignorance. They actually have no real experience with a true x-server LFD.

The loss of culpability makes a huge difference. That's too bad. I've ran with well over 100 different people cross server and out of those experience (dungeons, raids, pvp), I could count all of the bad experiences on one hand. And one of those experiences was simply because I got put on a team that was from another country and I didn't speak their language nor did they speak mine. There really wasn't in problem running the content, it was just confusing at times on what they wanted me to do. I just find a lot of the "Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad" cross-server stories tend to be more hyperbole than fact.

The loss of culpability makes a huge difference. You had very bad luck then. Most x-server groups were good for me and most others I've chatted with. And I've had alot of stinker groups from same server groupings before. Before x-server, if you weren't in one of THE guilds, you were a lower class citizen and those guild members could grief you to no end without repercussion.

Either cross server LFG or forced server merges that eliminate 50% to 75% of the servers. Either one is an acceptable solution to me.
