Try compiling a group by hand on any server as republic, and you'll see why a cross server LFD would be very handy for us. We simply lack the numbers, it's as simple as that. On a Very Heavy population server during prime time hours, we may have a total of 80 people in the Republic Fleet on Terentetek (PvP). For many of us, asking for some sort of LFD system is about being able to actually play the game. If even not an automated queue, just a more intuitive way to mark yourself or search for people, than a simple icon in the /who window. Even Rift had a level 50 exclusive channel, which all players attaining level 50 would be placed into, meaning that no matter where they were in the game, you could broadcast for groups for instances and receive interested people. Swtor locks channels in by planets and/or stations, making it utterly impossible to find a group without an actual LFD interface. TLDR We don't need an automated queue, we just want an intuitive interface to find groups regardless of where people are located
