Must Taste Awful
Blizzard, it seems, has recanted their previous statements so adamantly saying they will not bring back the global LFG channel. For those so lazy they refuse to read, it basically says come the next major content patch the global LFG channel will return in World of Warcaft, with a few stipulations. Mainly you have to be using the LFG/LFM system currently in place.
I’m not really against it, in fact, I think it will be a big help in getting groups easier, but it still seems like an artificial fix to a system that wasn’t designed properly in the first place. They give themselves just enough of an out to say they weren’t wrong in the first place about the LFG system but they are willing to work to make it better, when quite frankly they needed to just apologize for a half-done system and redo it, which I can hope from that post is still coming sometime.

[...] On Monday I made mention of Blizzard’s plans to bring back the LFG channel, at least in a way, even though they had said it wouldn’t happen. This “fix” is really an inherently poor band-aid on the LFG problem, but that’s another story entirely. [...]
