Following that same logic why should it not be possible getiing to 50 straight away aswell ?
why wait to play when 50 is vast more superior being then lv 1 ?

But basicly this is what comes automaticly

If you have X-server LFG you will aswell actually need to have the instant teleportation feature ,kick reductions timers, loot stops from some classes and the list just gets bigger.

The more convinience you will cram into the game the less people will care about the performance while finding the loopholes to do so just think the Pvp dungeons but times 10 .

Or think about TBC WoW when they implemented the PvP gear for honor and what that turned battlegrounds into.
Basicly same things here will happen.

I don't even know if WoW have fixed theire x-server LFG not being able to kick the afk players yet in the instances or is it still being missused?

Destroy community in game? lol, what community? Servers are dead. The LFG tool would be the only way for many people to do anything at all. Especially lower level people and peoples alts.

And by implementing a x-server tool which the entire community does not what but only the vocal community who spend more time whining on a forum then playing the game should get their feelings on the game put to use makes for a bad game.

Unless you think a healthy community who gets all they want like free loot from x-server instances and raids etc which is one of the other reasons WoW bled a lot of extra subscriptions from some of their most influential subscribers such as the hard core players because the game started to cave into player requests.

That's going completely off. You PLAY the game from level 1 to 50. You SIT AROUND DOING NOTHING waiting for a Flashpoint group.

Huge difference.

I'm still calling for ONE virtual server you shall be known as <charactername>@<servername> We'll be able to whisper a player using that. We will share the General Chat. We can "hop shards/servers" to play with players we know.

Your logic is flawed. You are playing the game when leveling from 1->50. You're doing missions or running flashpoints or playing PvP. It's activity.

You are not playing the game standing around fleet spamming LFG messages.

BW has already said we're getting same-server LFG. The only difference this thread is talking about is the merits of making that tool, that we're already getting, cross-server. So yes, we're going to need kick reduction timers, loot control, etc., anyway. Cross-server or single server, the feature list is the same... except for cross-server or single-server.

As long as flashpoints become the gear thread mill you need to have access to them. Every attempt to do a single server Lfd has failed miserably. Blizzard may be a lot of things in including the death of the genre but they are not stupid. The rampant problems with the Lfd pale in comparison to problems for most gamers finding reliable groups without devoting their life to a video game. under the old system those who played 4 hours a day had no problems making connections but those who played sporadic got the shaft .
Our lack of a proper LFD tool will black out the sun!
Then we shall cancel our subs in the shade!

However it follows the same route as giving players too much of a thing makes them want more given to them at an easier cost.

BioWare should not cave into the pressure from vocal groups on a forum and probably are running in house graphs to see what percentage of players run what stuff and implement only what is needed to get a appropriate level without removing the MM from the ORPG.
