Blizzard needs to rethink this IO nonsense. It’s making m+ terrible

Maybe you didn’t have the utility that group was looking for. Maybe they saw something about your character they simply didn’t like. Start your own group. shrug
IO was created by the players not blizzard. Blizzard banning IO just means we’d find another way to measure people.

I guess you didn’t get the memo, but no one cares about last season’s score. You could have won the MDI last season and be the best player in the world, and you’ll get turned down for a +12 by most groups. That’s just how pug life is.
oooohhhhhhh now I realize why this thread exists. I didn’t realize who posted it… my bad.

Just Pugging …
Pretty common for people to solo pug to high ratings.

Competition?
Maybe better ilvls/rio’s applied?
Something something BM hunters something?

NGL I’m surprised that many people took a BM hunter the way you always talk about how bad they are.
of course. but in all those runs, nobody liked playing with you (generic you, not you specifically) enough to add you as a friend?

I’ve played this game since Vanilla. And it’s been my experience that pugs don’t randomly add you. People are pretty anti social in this game.

that hasn’t been my experience at all, but i’m sorry it has been yours. i’ve picked up a lot of friends every season so far this expansion.

I quit before I got 3k IO and I’ve had zero issues getting groups even though I haven’t played for like 2 months.
But then again, I’m not pugging.

Don’t be sorry. I don’t add people myself either. I don’t join pugs to make friends.

Probably explains why you’re not having luck making friends.
Not really something I relate to though, pugging without even bothering to socialise seems pretty lonely.

Yea and 3.1k ppl are probably applying right now, so youre still underdog compared to them
Make friends as previously suggested
It’s the first day of a new season.
It’s not IO. It’s that there are a lot more people trying to get into groups then there are tanks, healers, and groups to handle all of them.
So what’s the solution to this? Force people to play with you? LFD like queues? Those will work as well as throwing a LFR group into a mythic raid. Everyone will join thinking they will be the only carry and everyone capable of doing the content will run away as fast as possible.
I have plenty of friends. I never said I don’t have friends in the game. I just said I don’t make friends in pugs.
