Sad to say that wouldn't happen.
Don't know what your point was. Your fake *** compromise is actually no compromise. Should have quoted the most relevant part.

And trust me on this one - it's going to be my way in the end. Simply because I'm the majority and because the majority is where the money is at.

Actually it is a fact as far as WoW is confirmed. In the UK we have what is called the law of precedent (I believe it's in the US too) therefore I can safely state as a fact that LFD leads to nerfs, That doesn't mean that it will do in SWTOR however as the saying goes if it looks like a pear and it tastes like a pear, it probably is one.

I'm not against server LFD I just don't think it will work particularly well and as flashpoints will be my end game because I don't want to raid, I don't see why people should spoil my end game when there are alternatives.
LFD queue do not lead to content nerfs. Completely false. Wow started nerfing content before they even introduced x-server LFD. What logically would be the reason that LFG queues would lead to content nerfs. Keep in mind this is already the easiest, most casual, most accessible MMO on the market.

Actually the majority where the money is, i.e. the 10m, is playing WoW.

SWTOR needs to be different or people will probably slowly dribble back to WoW, or where ever they came from, as they have a more polished product - given their 7 year head start.

you got emblems of frost from your the daily heroic random and emblems of triumph for your daily normal random. Any additional heroic randoms gave triumph badges, and any additional normal randoms gave gold. Pre wotlk dungeons gave gold.

Yeah, you guys had a worse time for queues than we did, pretty much across the board.

In both the US, and in Europe, it's called post hoc ergo propter hoc, and it's logical fallacy.

... So what exactly was your point again?

If I wanted to play WoW (which I don't) I'd just play WoW. Simple as that. There are several aspects that SWTOR just does better (Leveling, Crafting, Companions, Story-telling ... etc) and therefore I prefer to play SWTOR.

I just think that a Cross-Server-LFG tool (among other features like dual specialization, a fully customizable UI, addons, macros and a barber shop ... etc) would make this already good game even better.

I am sick to death of sitting on the fleet forever and spamming chat. Please bring in a LFD tool so i can get back out into the world.
Vicious: You should see yourself. Do you have any idea what you look like at this moment Spike: What? Vicious: A ravenous beast. The same blood runs through both of us. The blood of a beast who wanders, hunting for the blood of others. Spike: I've bled all that kind of blood away. Vicious: THEN WHY ARE YOU STILL ALIVE?

Where exactly is the irony? I can't seem to find it.

He wants to queue up for a flashpoint and do whatever he wishes to do while he waits for the invite to pop up. Fire and forget. What's wrong with that?

No, he's going to get out into the world by standing in one place and teleporting instantly to a flashpoint and repeating. That's exactly what's going to happen. That's why there are so many people in org and sw, they're all just standing there waiting for queues to pop.
