No Cross Realm LFG tool please!

Well there's common sense, but that seems to be over your head...

A low population server is having difficulty getting players together to form FP's and Ops. So you think a tool which groups that same lack of people will magically fix it?

Nah, that'd be 16 server types, and it can all be done with the 4 types we have now (pve, rp, pvp, pvprp)

For each: Have a lfg tool, allow people to pick whether they want to group cross server or not with a checkbox, have 2 different end game content levels, the unapologetic level and the the scaled level.

Maybe you jumped in to this conversation late, I suggest you take the time you have to review Guild Summit vids and read former posts on this very thread... and the one that preceded it. Compiling a list from all of them is not in my future.

I am guessing math isn't a strong suit?

No, afk people will be just as afk. It's kind of tautological

just FYI: invalid reasons given by dev's are still invalid reasons

Valid reason: A significant portion of the player base want it, and there is no valid argument against it.


Because they lit the applause sign?
because they're not representative of the player base?
because they think it's a step in the correct direction to have any lfg tool at all?



You see what you want to see.

What happened in WoW before LFG was you'd report someone as ninja in general and then you would get flamed for caring (in other words, the one reporting the ninja would come out worse). So 1.3 will come with Single server only lfg, no significant change in fp participation will occur (particularly at lvl 50) on the low pop servers and by the time they get in a cross server LFG it may be too little too late. I love this game and I want it to succeed, but I can't keep paying for a game where all I do is log in, spend some time in general trying to find a group and then log out. And running lowbies through heroics is getting old too. Alts will keep me occupied somewhat for a time but I don't expect that to last either. I've been defending this game against its critics for quite some time, but it's becoming more and more difficult and this issue is a major reason why.

And somehow you along with a few posters in here are a better representative of the gaming population, considering that forums posters already make up of a very small amount of the total gamers, maybe 2%?

Suppose for one moment that my sample size is deemed not big enough. How does that make you along with other people right?

Let me show you simple maths.

I show you a video where, maybe 40 people applauded at single-server.
And here I only find maybe 10 different posters who want cross-server.

If 40 people do not represent the gaming population, how does that make the 10 of you more right?

Better to look a fool than to be one.

And you, a random forum poster from a single server, somehow knows better than a lead end-game designer who is privy to in-game data like subs, number of flashpoints run, across all servers?

A gamer knows better than a developer?

And you think I *look* the fool here?

No we know you are the fool. And yes, a gamer knows better than a developer. That's incredibly obvious. Know the difference? The gamer PLAYS the game.

The dev team said Single server only as they are smart enough to realize that cross server kills communities. Now I know a lot of people coming from that other game don't believe but that's just because they never really cared much about community in the first place as long as they could get their shinies.

Hell I am against cross server pvp as its gonna suck to not know who's any good anymore on your side and who's good on the other. But they've already said its gonna be cross so what can you do. /shrug

Actually if you want to use that analogy here, the judge would ask the clerk to reread the record of the part where the reasons were given and then he/she would reread them. Try a better analogy that actually works.
