Server: Jedi Covenant
Faction: Republic
Last night I logged in at 4pm CST and began looking for a PUG Hard Mode Flashpoint. I have three methods of finding a PUG:
1) Use the /who window and enter the LFM que with a comment of "TankLFG.HMFP" since the widnow is not expandable in any way and you cant read anything more than that. I never get any tells or offers from this method, but I do it nonetheless on the hopes that combined with methods 2 and 3 I might get lucky.
2) Our server has created a /4 LFG channel that some know about but most don't. It is server-wide independent of what planet your on. Spam it about every 2 minutes with "Tank LFG HM-FP's".
3) Stand around in the republic fleet doing crafting missions while posting sales on the GTN and spamming in general chat every 2 minutes "Tank LFG HM-FP's".
Using all three options I searched from 4pm to 10:00pm CST and was able to find only one pug group. 1 pug in 6 hours. That one pug was for a HM Esseles that was done and over in about 45 minutes. Other than that no luck with flashpoints but I am becoming the Bill Gates of the universe from all my UT mat sell's on the GTN.
On average I am able to get a pug for hardmodes about once every three days. Bioware pretty much has me by the ********s in that there isn't any other game out right now that I consider better than this. Waiting for months and months for 1.3 to fix this issue is ridiculous and the first game that comes along, that is half way descent, will pull me away from my sub here in a heartbeat.
To you bioware, go ahead and wait till 1.3 before you fix this crap and if any good game comes out you will have one less sub (and Im not the only one with this train of thought, I assure you) or you could get off your rear end and maybee implement a default server wide channel that is turned on by default for everyone that doesn't know how to channel jump.
