Guild Wars 2

I stood in Lions Arch on a Saturday night spamming for 2 hours for a COE EXP (never got the grouped formed either). How is this fun Arenanet? I don’t get to play the game, I just stand and spam LFG, that is when I am not suppressed. At least make a globalal channel so I can go out and quest and PLAY the game while trying to assemble a group.

Global LFG is currently only available on your friends tab. I know that sounds insane, so let me also back you up on this:
“Looking for Group” is currently broken, in my opinion.

It’s completely non-specific, so even if you use it nobody knows what purpose you have for looking. Complete strangers in the zone see you on the LFG section of their friends/contacts tab, potentially confusing them. Pick up groups are often found both in the zone where the dungeon is located and in Lion’s Arch, but there is no chat that can reach both at the same time, resulting in sometimes massive Waypoint fees if you’re dungeon is unpopular. On top of everything else, certain dungeon doors getting contested (ex: CoE as in the original post) gives you a limited window of opportunity to start, so it’s essential that we have a better pick-up-group tool, even if it ends up getting spammed like the Party Windows of old GW1 (which by the way was brilliant). We’d rather put up with some spam to avoid the frustration of not being able to find a PUG when the time is right.

The problem I have with the LFG Tag by your name is that when you are in WvW the enemy can see it and you have no chance of sneaking around if you dont know the enemy can see it or if you forgot to take it off.
