    @Vidu: Oh no, that would never work on NA/EU data centers. I'm fully aware of that. XD Because most people only think about their needs and what they want, compared to the group. There is also more lack of respect from NA/EU players usually, because we tend to think "me, me, me" and whine when we don't get our way. Which is how most cultures teach us to behave as we grow up, so it's not surprising. Granted, not all of us are that selfish (and being a little selfish sometimes is just human nature, perfectly normal and acceptable), but probably not compared to those that are exceedingly selfish (just based on the posts I've read on here and on reddit).

    So yeah, I am all for giving players the options to filter their groups, be it in Duty Finder or Party Finder or wherever. Even those who haven't cleared can choose to "exclude" those that have (ya know, if they want to be in a group with 7 other people and be completely surprised), so that would make it "fair," since both groups would have options to "exclude."

    Honestly, I think it's unrealistic and somewhat ridiculous to expect to PUG a piece of content (let's use A11S as an example) having never cleared it, and just a.) expect the veterans/those who have cleared to help/carry you even though they are there to farm the content for gear/pages, b.) expect them to be okay if you don't want "spoilers" or explanations of mechanics (I have met a surprising amount of people who don't want "spoilers" for fights), or c.) expect to even clear the Duty within the time frame provided.

    Party Finder is there for everyone to use: veterans, mentors, newbies, returning players...EVERYONE. But some have got to learn that, if there's no PF for whatever piece of content you want to learn/clear/farm, to take initiative and make one yourself. If you want something done, it's best to do it yourself. And to not force your wants or desires (be it learning/clear/farm) on a group of 7 others that may or may not share them. That's what I think.
