Make it clear in the Party Finder that experience is not required, nor is watching videos or any other sort of preparatory studying. That party will fill faster than you might think! There are always plenty of inexperienced players looking for practice, and often even a few experienced players willing to show the newbies the ropes.
    I very much disagree with this approach.

    DF is always and will always be a roll of the dice.

    You might get 7 people who know the content inside and out and are bored while waiting for their static to log on.

    You might get 7 people who have never set foot into the content and have no idea what they are doing.


    You shouldn't go into DF expecting an auto-win... that's ridculous.

    If you make a PF group and say "experience required" and someone who has never seen the content comes. Yes, that person should be flamed. Queing up for DF to experience the content? Nope, no expereince required.




    Also, how is it "ruining someones day" if you que up to content you don't know, but make honest attempts at completing it?

    The real problem with this game is that there are so many entitled brats who feel like, "one fail = leave". We have an hour to beat primals, but I've rarely ever been in a group that lasted more than 20 minutes. One or two wipes and someone rage quits, rather than sticking around and trying to help the group achieve victory. That's the real problem, not someone who doesn't want to watch a video showing them exactly what to do.
