@ZoS: My Final Plea- We can't consistently form groups for Vet. content without Text!

Before i start... I know a mod will probably lock this right up and reroute my conversation to the the one thread we've all been banished to, BUT i beg of you let a Dev. read my post.
I LOVE this game and I represent a large number of players like myself who desperately want this game to prosper, but see no way of playing the game as it was originally designed to be played since text chat has been removed.

This game is a MMO.
The best, end game content in this game is group content like all MMOs.
Even with 5 guilds with 1000s of active members a person will not be able to find the correct roles, levels, people trying to run the same content.
Especially considering you can only sit in one guild chat at a time. Though who would want to sit in more than one IDK.
- Or maybe i should sit in Elden root and shout over a dozen psychotic racist crybabies to look for that key member for my vet dungeon run... NO.

It is common knowledge the group finder system is not ideal to say the least.
Either sit in a queue for hours on end, OR find a group with the incorrect roles, OR find a group with varying levels that create a ton of issues including incorrect leveled loot, OR most of the time just find horribly dysfunctional groups.
In every other MMO i've played including console MMOs no one uses a group finder. It is always a joke and always will be.
Veteran content in MMOs requires more than a random group thrown together by a computer program... but ya'll already know this... don't you.


The bottom line is everyone i know that knows how a MMO is supposed to work is beyond frustrated.
Most of them have stopped playing altogether and gone back to other games. NOT because they don't think this game is incredible. NOt because they didn't want to commit a ton of time and money, blood sweat and tears to this game, BUT because WE CAN'T RUN THE CONTENT. period.
The last month I've literally seen a dozen of my friends log in, stew around questing for an hour, then log off and go play DCUO where they can hope in premade kickass PUG raid groups one after another because 100s of them are being formed by the minute in text.

god bless and goodnight.

    Agreed... Text chat (especially LFG chat) is the #1 most important tool in a mmo, can't believe it didn't come with the game

    Area voice chat has got to be the most disgusting thing about this game, all the squeaky voiced kids, coughing and runny noses, music blasting, crying babies and people yelling across their house. It's such a terrible feature that I hope gets taken out

    I have a VR1 temp, VR2 nightblade, and VR3 sorc. Why 3 low level VRs? Because the second I have to start doing VR dungeons the game grinds to a complete halt. Not to mention how hard it is for a 34 yo to find friends.
