The LFG tool is not so bad, but during LS events, or cooperative World Boss (Tequal), we are not looking for a group, but for a map (instance).
Could we have a tab in the Contact panel which list available instances for the map we are in. Each instance would be shown with some attributes :
- A language flag (EU instance could have up to 2 or 3 flags)
- A list of biggest guilds involved on this instance (2 or 3 biggest guilds represented on the instance)
- An “activity field”, describes the main activity on this isntance, options are :
— Exploration
— World Boss
— Meta Event (many maps have meta event, not only LS one like Drytop or Silverwastes)
— Friendly activities (RP, help for new palyers, Guild recruit, Jumping puzzle…)
— Mindless Farm (Bots needs their own instance)
When you load a map, an UI window shows the instance properties, and you have a drop down to vote for the activity you want do to do on this instance.

That way everybody play the way he wants, with people he wants.

The problem with this is that certain large guilds wants instances to themselves in order to get all (or at least as many as possible) of their members to a certain instance. With this system it would be impossible to hide the fact that a certain guild is massing in a specific instance and as such it would be rather easy for leechers and others to join it.

Are the Guilds supposed to hide themself in some instance ? Honestly I’m not sure what to think about that, but let’s admit that’s something we want for the game. Anet could “easily” had an option in Guild Upgrade to “reserve” an instance, just the way a Guild can launch a World Boss.
