I feel that everyone is comparing apples to oranges here. LFG is a tool to allow you to get into flashpoints "Faster." Granted, if you follow WoW's system and queue for DPS it can still be a long wait, but I can do other stuff than stand in a city screaming in gen chat "LFG for such and such an instance." When I have to work to find ppl to play with but only have enough time to play as a casual gamer, then I miss out on the instances. If I can't experience the content, what is there to motivate me into playing this game?
P.S. I'm not trying to be a troll here either. I so desperately want this game to become something epic.
