Ok OP here is how it is. people wont read your post, they will just post a couple of dumb "reasons" why they think there should be a LFG function.

The vast majority of MMO players know that having more functionality such as cross server queues and LFG system will only benefit the MMO they are playing.

The small minority will allways cite the QQ of "omg, dont put lfg tool in, it ruins community" which is just a null and void argument tbh.

We want you to make friends and the only way your going to do that is by having to group with people from your server.
I'm sorry but I don't want you to dictate my play style or to re-work me socially.

I'll settle for my optional tool thanks.

And you're right I do want the tool for myself, that it will immensely help so many others is just gravy.

Glad you have come around.

Your welcome.
Except what we have is tried and true system already in place in modern mmo's.

Pretty ham fisted attempt really, thanks for trying?

This is not true. Most of us have guilds and friends to play and many of us do run the content, especially the end game OPS. This still doesn't change the fact that we do make alts, we do all have different play times outside our scheduled runs, we do want to play the content when friends/guildies are not online.

How would you feel if they suddenly removed the queue for warzones? The only time you could play was when you had a full group. No more random nights were you feel like going in solo and just playing a few rounds. This is no different from LFD queues.

That's a pretty naive thing to say to be honest. They will look at the most succesful competitor (WoW) and try and copy the features that made it so succesful. The Cross-Server LFG-Tool is one of these features.
No surprise there, you demand to reduce my enjoyment so you can have your 'quality of life' improved - how thoughtful - sucks to be me I suppose eh.

Actually I am confident that I can factually state that WoW has less subscribers now than they did when they implemented LFD (although to be fair I'm not suggesting that that was the only cause)
