Someone explain the LFG tool hate?

The biggest gripe really isn't community...to me that's crap. You have a chance to meet more people cross server then you do in your server. The biggest gripe is it takes away the communities ability to police itself in its groups. Say bob is a huge troll. always pulls wrong stuff, gets team wiped over and over, generally just doesn't give a rip. In the system now, the community has the ability to just not invite him to a group. He learns and either changes or leaves. LFG tool basically allows bob to troll as much as he wants and just reque up. that gripe i can definitely understand.

That actually is "community", since Bob can be a jerk without reprecussion he and other like him can behave in whatver manner they like which has a negative impact on the community. Additionally how many of those people you meet that are on another server do you actually bother to get to know? You can't arrange to run with them again, and its doubtful you'll ever get thrown together in a random group again. Essentially they become "Warm body #5674" and you never worry about building a friends list or even your own rep since you can just fill your groups with random warm bodies until you've beat the FP or Op. This degrades the social aspect of the community as surely as the rampant Bobs.

And face the facts, you don't use it because you don't want to.

Being hand held tends to do this but I have a feeling a lot of players don't even know that an LFG tool does exist right now

People, for the most part, want to group with people in their own server. Sure there may be some people who don't care, but I think the majority falls into the former category. A cross server LFG tool wouldn't really appeal to these people since the people they would be playing with would, in all probability, never be seen or heard from again.

So what about a LFG tool that works only in your own server? Well that is redundant because if people in your server don't want to group with you then why would their minds change just because there is a grouping tool?
