The Beta is not indicative of the final version, leaving feedback is the productive thing to do 
Yep, feedback like, âLFG is trash, add RDFâ.

Do you not see how this feedback is not constructive and will be ignored? RDF is not coming back, so letâs focus on the future and help Blizzard build out the LFG tool by giving meaningful feedback.
Imagine rerolling on one of those fresh servers. Youâre alliance and just dinged 15 and youâre suddenly introduce to RDF. You see the RDF icon on your minibar. You click it and see there is a dungeon called âragefire chasmâ. Interested, you click âfind groupâ and then go back to questing.
A short time later you hear a loud boom and a window pops up telling you your group is ready. You hit enter and all of a sudden youâre in a dungeon youâve never seen before with 4 other unlikely travellers from your server.
Itâs a fresh server. No one knows anyone yet but youâre all excited to be on this adventure together. You introduce yourselves and exchange some niceties then go about destroying the dungeon.
The last boss drops a blue 1 hand sword called the felblade and you win the roll.
You think âwow! That was amazing and this weapon is so great and iâm only level 15.â
You also met some great new people who you would have never had the opportunity to play with if not for RDF. Maybe you added one of them to your friends list or maybe you got an invite to their guild.
Then you go back to questing in Elywnn forest with a great sense of accomplishment and reward.
This experience happened because of RDF. RDF is a MAJOR community building tool. The idea that RDF hurts the community is misplaced. Cross realms is what destroys communities, not RDF. Just look at what happened to PvP once it went cross realm? World pvp stopped happening. You stopped seeing horde from your server. You stopped caring about the horde v alliance competitiveness

My only dream in life was to run rage fire casm as a level 13 alliance character. When I found out I couldnt I was destroyed both mentally, physically, and emotionally. Wont you please think of the children?
This is a common minconception due to it being so long ago when it was first implemented, but I was around for those years and it absolutely was the start of the automation of the WoW community.
Retail is just a lobby, you click queue and AFK and donât speak to anybody.
The LFG is a compromise for those Retail-minded players by allowing them a tool that feels familiar to their original RDF but still being what the Classic community wants.
Itâs very constructive, it tells Blizzard their beta system is trash, and that we prefer RDF.

Itâs 3 am and you want to do a specific dungeon this is how your life will be as a DPS
3:01 LF TANK Occulus then G2G summons available
3:03 LF TANK Occulus then G2G summons available
3:05 LF TANK Occulus then G2G summons available
3:07 LF TANK Occulus then G2G summons available
3:09 LF TANK Occulus then G2G summons available
Sure the first few weeks everyone will be spamming dungeons daily
but after a month of two, GL finding people to do dungeons that no one wants to do
RDF means you can queue and get a group regardless, yes itâs not as great socially as LFG but at least you can find a dungeon. If youâre not a tank or healer itâs extremely painful and slow to get a group RDF is way better and anyone saying LFG is superior is just digging their heads in the sand.
People will take you a bit more seriously when you stop hiding behind a retail sockpuppet you clearly donât play and post with your crusade 70, assuming you even have one.
Them geared tanks are going to make bank from selling tanking services.
Bruh, are you serious!??!! I tried giving the tool a shot and I must say, I prefer the current tbc lfg tool over the new wotlk tool any day lol. But hey itâs your feedback. We all see things differently or the same of certain things.
If you like the tool somehow, then hey props to ya in that regard despite me thinking you sounding like youâre trolling about it but on the other hand you may not be trolling⌠idk lol
Like i said in one of the other posts, Iâm glad I got a guild to avoid using the tool unless it somehow gets improved or etc.
One question though⌠If youâre against rdf for wotlk, why youâd name yourself rdf? That mainly what made me think youâre trolling lol but again you may not be but if you are trolling, then lmao⌠Other then that, hope everyone has a good day/night
LFG Tool and RDF serve different purposes.
RDF is for smashing content where you donât care about your group comp.
LFG Tool is for content where you well actually do care about who is in your group.
Both should be in the game as they both do different things.

I have to agree and disagree with that. Like everyone I came across in the rdf back then cared about group completion along with caring who be in the group⌠Well, nearly everyone⌠Which this is back on my server before it was even a crossrealm thing in rdf⌠When cross realm came, yeah that I agree with you about RDF straight up focuses on smashing content and etc.
The LFG tool despite itâs clunkiness and etc. I can see itâs attempting to be aimed for more " Social " aspect lol. Which in that case, a compromise can happen if everyone can come together for a compromise from both sides⌠but based on what the forum posts i been seeing such as pro rdf and anti rdf be saying, may not be possible.
So Iâll see how it plays out on release and if Blizz donât cave in to the other half of the side such as the pro rdf people of giving us the rdf in like whenever of wotlkâŚ
After all, they caved in of releasing classic vanilla and TBC regardless of why they have.
A lot of this depended on server size. I was on a high pop server back in wrath and if you were straight pugging you virtually never just ran across the same person again while dungeoning.

Yeah true that. I can agree to that since I donât know how your server population was back then. Although, I will admit my server was pretty good in population and every few times , often come across the same people in rdf pug groups which If i remember correctly can stay in the group and reque up⌠Thatâs pretty much another way of how i met some cool peeps with me being a dps mainly lol. But alas, everyoneâs experience is different depending on the server population as you said 
If they narrowed it to same server, no bonus badges from RDF, and locking you out of heroics to once a day like it was when the RFD wasnât in the game, it would be a good compromise. It gives it very little advantage over the LFG tool and the LFG tool could be used by people that want to sculpt the group to increase their chances of getting a specific drop. Heck, you could even use the LFG tool, for a group and hit the âjoin as groupâ in the RDF to pop into a zone.

Totally agree with that. As I and some other few pro rdf people has said that too of locking out people of heroics after completing them once in the rdfâŚ

Yea, it shouldnât have an advantage over the LFG system, it should be a parallel option.

Agreed. Iâm sure everything will fall into place that both sides can be happy about it⌠In my personal opinion, I just think removing the rdf that was in wrath , not entirely in wrath but at a certain patch update such as 3.3.5 I recall?? , was a bad move for Nearly everyone was talking about it lol before they announce it was going to be removed.
