If so many are spamming chat with LFG why are so many people ignoring it?

If there is no LFG in chat it couldn't be that most are in a guild and don't look outside the guild?

Could it be that if they need one or 2 more members they go with companions?

If I was to believe the LFG tool people I would imagine 100 people standing next to each other saying they wish they had people to do stuff with and after talking about it they all leave.

This is a big win for everyone, fixes the problem with the "ghost" realms and hardcore people can continue to use their guilds.

If your definition of fun is LF group while sitting on the fleet is your idea of fun good for you. I ran dungeons with guildies and when i couldnht i used LFD tool, or formed groups via trade for making achievement runs with random people. All those 3 options worked well for me in prett much every run.

Well guess what... you were wrong. It's time to leave that sorry excuse behind.
It's not an excuse, I couldn't give less of a frack about it, it's only a game. Either way, it's an obvious potential problem.

And I never claimed to be a 'community type'. If I wanted community, I'd hang out with my neighbours.

So long as you are willing to accept all the flotsam that will come your way with a cross server group finder.

I am all for a LFD tool, but them making it cross-server is stupid. It hurt WoW, and it will hurt this game. We will get a lot of people who don't care what happens in a specific group, needing everything, and just generally being a jack-***. I hope they add a LFD tool, but server specific only.

As for the dual spec thing, that sounds great and shuts up the people who said "AC's are not another class." I am glad they put their foot down on allowing AC transfers.

This is me, too.

Lack of modern MMO features, which at this point in my gaming experience at the top is server transfers (to get off a dead server), is the reason I've unsubbed.

I just suspect by the time these features are all implemented, I'll be enjoying one of the many 2012 releases I'm planning on buying, and the window of opportunity for me to be a long-term subscriber to this game will have passed.

But I do know if none of these modern MMO features are added, I'll never be back.

But I'll get over it quickly especially given how hard it is to get a group even here.
I'm republic and it's easy as pie to get a group on Harbinger. You sure you're not on a lot of people's ignore lists?

It didn't hurt WoW. It drastically increased dungeon participation, so much so that they implemented it for raiding too.

So excuse me for being stupid, but what is Dual Spec? I've heard of it before, but can never remember what it actually does.
