Improve the LFM

[Robbenklopper]

Since a few months there´re lesser LFMs than before in my eyes. Maybe coz of all the EDs that make it easier to run quests solo, more People beeing organized in guilds or whatever. From time to time, my guildies/friends are not online and i Need to run for myself, checking the LFM to join or create myself. Sometimes successfully, most the time disappointing.

Whatever. IMO the LFM-Menu could Need an improvement. We already can see if this or that quest is run in the adventures log, but it´s to much "rooted" to do easy Pairing.

My Suggestion: Extend the LFM-Menu with a Screen where you make multiple Crosses/marks for the quests you´re willing to run that day, DDO compares with everybody and spits out an overview - and we could pair up more easy. Or not?
The "One-Option" LFM is out of date.

This sounds way too complex to me. I think it'd be superior simply to change the Adventure Compendium to instead of "flag you as looking for group", open the "create a group" panel with that quest already selected. It also needs to be easier to post for adventure areas and entire chains (it'd be splendiferous if you could post a chain and it automatically updated to show which quest you were on). The LFG flagging in this game is totally non-functional and needs to go.

I could see having a button in the Adventure compendium where you click it and when any LFM's go up for that quest you get an automated "CHECK THE LFM PANEL FOOL" message. That could work.

They could also make it so you can't actually post an LFM without selecting an adventure area/quest/chain.
