RDF please

Because they didn’t want to actually pvp on their pvp server so they all turned to the pvp server that was their faction only. They also bought into the “dead server” hype. There weren’t really any dead servers. There are a TON of complaints having to do with the mega servers now though that happen solely due to the population on those servers. The best thing Blizzard could do is cap the populations of servers so we are forced to spread out. That gets rid of Q times. That gets rid of the supply and demand problems they were having. Think back to when everyone was crying about black lotus and flasks being so expensive. That only happened because while there were no pop cap limitations they didn’t increase available resources at the same time. The problem is you can’t now increase resource availability without screwing over lower pop servers. You’d crash their markets immediately. People fail to realize blizzard doesn’t make changes that only effects one server. They usually effect them all.

This is the state of the current LFG tool.

I played OG wrath… And some of us did have sunwell gear. There was a pug raid going during prepatch. I had T6 gloves and some T5 gear. Definitely saved me some gold leveling.

Well its a good name then. She was one of my favorite civs to be in Civ 5. I wish they brought her back for Civ6.

Ok well not on my server. Not in my groups. I talk all the time. Be the change you want to see.

What does this even mean?

I mean… obviously im anti RDF… but i think both sides have people who say things that make us question their sanity lol.

Back then, sure. On our current server you’ll see 1 maybe 2 pieces at the most. The majority don’t have any. That’s why you don’t see a lot of gatekeeping on our server - because it’s fresh.

Core features of the game have largely been preserved for patch 3.4, sans RDF. Point me to another core feature that was in 3.4 that isn’t currently in the game and you may have an argument. As far as I know, the only things not currently in the game are tied to content (i.e. raid phases, etc). RDF is not tied to a content release, and is simply a social feature.

The ability to queue for BGs from anywhere is a very similar feature, and it has been enabled. I don’t see a compelling argument not to enable RDF.

Yeah, I do as well. Crickets is all you get, people just wanna do the content. Typing and socializing is not why people do instanced content. In today’s hyper politically correct world, even attempting to communicate is challenging.

I like picking on people who play gnomes as a way to get people to communicate. Gnomes are now ignoring me for racism. Like … … … …/facepalm, talking in LFG is just a bad idea it seems. It is understandable why people avoid it.

I’m talking about on our server. I was in a pug discord. Sunwell was being cleared quite a bit. We were clearing all the raids every week after we hit 70 on Maladath.

Its the state of all dungeons. The only difference in the two is one will have a que and randomize and the other doesnt.

ive put myself as both a dps and a tank in the tool and was able to find groups just fine.

That’s what I’m saying. People could run SW maybe 3 times before Wrath released. That’s just a few pieces if you get lucky. If you ran it after Wrath release, okay then. I didn’t know anyone did that.

Personally I didn’t bother with it at all. Never did like that place.

pLEAse take it back

and I am all for polls so we can get the player bases vote and see if we are the majority if not then my argument would stop but we dont know for sure. and when I said to i was talking about my option but the reason I am also for the people who play at random times and cant find a group cause i been in that spot I was a tank looking for more people and I never found enough people to even get a group togather cause it wasnt in peak times. I wanted LFG in TBC but it wasnt in the OG game so my argument wasnt good enough to put that much time in to it but in wraith they had LFG and when they announced they werent bring LFG a few of my friends said well were not playing and they havent cause they was a main feature they were looking forwards to.

It’s not challenging to be nice. Really, it isn’t. Try it.

a) there are no battlegroups anymore, so it will randomize everyone from every server together, allowing everyone to troll anyone and there be no consequences to the actions of someone to the greater community of people on that server.
b) there is a huge social aspect when leveling to being in a zone and other people looking for more for a dungeon that is also in that zone. Westfall is a prime example.
c) people can join guilds and do runs just fine, or start their own runs, if they struggle to find pugs that gatekeep them because of their gear, etc. It isn’t different from Mythic dungeons in retail, you have to build a group for those and run to the dungeon, or be summoned from the stone/warlock.

come back and reply to my thread unless you are chicken

this is already done with battlegrounds as well as queue from anywhere

you can report people cross-server still, removing RDF didn’t disable that.

there will still be a greater community on each server with or without RDF.
Removing RDF didn’t increase community sizes on every server.

try finding those players on a non-fresh server, you will have a hard time now since you can’t find the amount of players you would with RDF enabled. You can still be social while leveling in a zone while in RDF queue.

maybe on a fresh or megaserver.

RDF isn’t going to stop people from doing that.

you mean like how LFG tool is being used currently? an issue which RDF would alleviate?

RDF isn’t going to take that option away from you.

now explain how blizzard removing RDF improved your social interactions so far.
or return to your post in the previous thread and continue discussion there or are you scared to debate?

the report button exists.

the ignore feature exists.

I’m certain that individual server communities could get together and form a ‘community blacklist’ if they really wanted to enforce consequences to actions.

Not really. Most people just quest until they are ready for the dungeon, then spend 30 minutes looking for a group, then give up and move on to the next set of quests.

Your example? You can’t even run VC efficiently until you’ve moved on into Redridge, since the minimum viable level for dps/tank is at least 16. At this point, a large number of those people needing to run VC end up just buying a run from a high level character.

all of these are options with RDF as well. Guilds will still have guild runs if they care about efficiency, or whatever.

None of these are compelling arguments for why RDF should not be enabled.

cheapens? oh you mean it takes away from your vurtual validation you receive because in real life you dont get any?

you have far more issues than rdf if youre that reliant on a video game to give you validation as a person.
