I think the OP would be fine if he could find a decent group. And this is more than possible by joining an active FC or sing /shout. He says he doesn't want to use the FC option, which is him basically gimping himself in a socially focused game like this. He has the tools and is refusing to use them.

The server check issues are something else, these frustrate even the most tightly focused groups. I've not got to endgame yet, but even with a solid group for the dungeons at my level they can be annoying. Still, I don't think this is what the OP is addressing.

Gear checks and filters for DF would go a long way to helping the OP, and should certainly be implemented, however he has tools he can use to make his life easier. He should use them.
