Agreed! I only ever see 1 to 2 things on there at once.

SE... why in god's name is there a timer on the party finder? If the timer runs out, the party stays together, and either one of 2 things will happen:

1) Your timer has actively discouraged them and they'll give up.
2) Your timer has inconvenienced the party leader and forced him to post to the party finder again.

What possible benefit is there to timing this? It's not as if you can AFK and rake in the party joins, since, y'know, you get kicked if you're afk.
