Give me a legitimate reason to NOT have a LFD tool.

Could be they all don't like interacting with other people like you OR they know of your anti social ways and just don't want to run with you.

Looks like a control system error to me.

1# A LFD tool will ruin/destroy the community.

3# We will see more 'thiefs' and people will be bad mannered.

People don't automatically turn into 'thiefs' just because they won't see the other players again.

4# "I don't want to play with random bad/clueless players".

5# Only lazy people wants a LFD tool.

6# If you don't have the time to find a group yourself you shouldn't be playing an MMO.

the chances of encountering a griefer are pretty much even, unless there are entire servers full of idiots that should be avoided.

Yeah - he's obviously lying. It's not that there's not enough people to play with on his lowly populated server.

[Irony]

He's just an anti-social, lazy, stinky jerk. And he's already on everyone's ignore list. That's why he can't find a group. Sounds logical to me.

Do you Anti-LFD-People ever listen to yourself?

It will destroy the feeling of beeing known, this is a fact. At wow I knew half my server at vanilla, at WOTLK I knew 15 people and that was my guild.

A thief at a server community will steal once, maybe twice after that he is on the blacklist and wont find groups anymore.

I didn't insult anybody. I made a blatant observation.

I'm not saying "me me me me" at all. I'm speaking for the thousands of others who are in my situation. I don't want Bio to create a tool "just for me". I want them to create one to enhance the game and make it easier to get a group = more fun.

Oh wait no, i'm sorry - it's my fault because I'm on a low pop server, rather than your awesome high pop server with uber players. Forgive me - I'm obviously not entitled to my own opinion, a view on this frankly, stupid debate and my sub is less important to Bioware than yours is.

He's just an anti-social, lazy, stinky ADHD-jerk. And he's already on everyone's ignore list. That's why he can't find a group. Sounds logical to me.

/ignore works in cross-server LFD tools as well (assuming they'll copy WoW's implementation)

So yeah, you're wrong. I was specifically asking for what's wrong with WoW's implementation of the LFD tool from a mechanics standpoint, and you jumped in touting accountability - which is a byproduct of playing with people, not a byproduct of a LFD tool.

It will destroy the feeling of beeing known, this is a fact. At wow I knew half my server at vanilla, at WOTLK I knew 15 people and that was my guild. If you join a specific server then because of the rules there and its people.
All this does not exist anymore at a random tool that matches you with people from different servers.

At wow I had so many problems with people from other servers, it started at looting rules and did end at pull and kill orders and their kind of playing the game in rushs etc.

So you don't like how others play their game? Either play with like-minded individuals or learn to respect and tolerate other people.

A thief at a server community will steal once, maybe twice after that he is on the blacklist and wont find groups anymore.
I really wonder if you guys ever played an MMO before, because you dont know these things. Every Server at wow vanilla had these list´s, they did exist at Ultima and DAOC and so on.
Also people are not always intentionelly rude, some are just having fun by rushing, skipping bosses or calling others noob. They dont even need to be rude, its just that they play different.
By matching those people with casuals that dont rush, are noobs etc. you create a very bad gaming experience for everyone.

No - not really. People will still get away with being as*holes. Because 2 days later everyone will forget how you ranted about them in general chat. That's how it is and how it always was. Your "community" doesn't care.

If you look for players, you take only those that fit your playstyle. Thats what its all about, you dont join a guild either, just because of loot do you? The guild has to fit you and so does the group, at an LFD this process is skipped and many different opinions collide.

So don't use the tool and play only with the people (your friends, your guild, like-minded individuals) you want to play with.

Just join the global LFG chat. If you refuse doing this, then you are lazy - sorry to say.

No. I'm not lazy - and I don't like being called lazy either. I just don't like wasting my time.

If you have 40 minutes and about 1-2 hours for LFD group run, then you have the time! A LFD group does take about 2-3x longer than a regular self made one. Time is not an issue, you are much better off by doing it manually.
