Guild Wars 2

I was thinking how the LFG Tool could be implemented more like a Speed Dating tool rather than something that can be used over and over again. Speed Dating is attractive because the window of opportunity appears scarce so it motivates people to get the most out of it. This could work just as well for LFG, and help prevent breaking the social systems of the game.
Let’s say every day you got 3 uses of it for dungeons (3 is just an arbitrary number).
Casual players who may not keep in contact with friends might use up some or all of this amount in a day. Guilds wouldn’t get diminished from it, and players who like to PUG a lot could buy upgrades to 5 and 7 times per day.
The key point of this idea is that scarcity of the LFG tool encourages people who enjoyed playing with each other to friend-up and try dungeons outside the LFG, also potentially leading to new guilds forming.
To keep good times happening, at the end of each PUG dungeon run there’d be an option to continue on with your group, but maybe only in a different dungeon. Anyone who continues to dungeon run together after meeting in LFG Tool don’t spend daily uses until they leave the dungeon/team. This encourages good groups to keep going, and it wouldn’t use up anyone’s daily amount.
Overall, it’s an opportunity to get what you need out of dungeons, but also connect with other players and “road test” a friendship or working relationship, without being able to just minimise strangers to quickly cycled dungeon hits.

I vote no. The people who need this tool for dungeons are the people who do not have guilds or large number of friends who do dungeons at their disposal.

There is a way too high of a chance of a bad group to count on getting a good group within the first 3 groups.

Plus, what do you tell the person who joined a group and got kicked when they meet the requirements of what the group was asking but the group was being way too picky on build?

Or the person who got kicked before the final reward so that they could let their friend in who is horrible with dungeons?

When those two different people happen to have to use an LFG tool or spam looking for group in chat to get a group.

It would honestly just drive people to use the gw2lfg site again because it imposes no such limit.

“I’m going to hit the 3 limit anyways since I’m going for enough tokens for a legendary and I need to do some runs to build up my gold, so I might as well just start off going to gw2lfg.com to get my groups. Use the in in game LFG tool if that site isn’t producing quick enough results for the dungeon path I need to run.”

Agreed Seera. It’s a horrible idea to implement x-number of uses for a system like that. We can guest only 2 servers a day and I agree that is fair, but to limit how many times players use the LFG tool or, worse, charge them for more uses is ludicrous.
