All I'm saying is that it is really, really dumb that there is not a system in place for zones/instances like when you walk up to the aetheryte in one of the main city states to hop over to another world. You hop in a queue and wait your turn. Instead, we have the current mess where you can be locked out of a zone/instance regardless of your purpose of being there and you have to sit there and repeatedly click on the aetheryte to try to get through. Why can't you just tell it once that you want to go and then wait instead of having to spam click it? This was a huge issue with the housing situation up until this point because it all came down to whoever got lucky and happened to click at the right time; they're doing away with that system because it was dumb and wasted everyone's time by forcing them to sit there and repeatedly click while praying to RNGesus. You should be able to click on something just once and tell it that you want to go through - it's like forming a line to get in instead of everyone just mob rushing the gates. I cannot fathom how this would be a bad thing.
    The goal of instances is not to give you 3 times the hunt marks to kill in a wave- its the opposite. You aren't supposed to suddenly cram 300-600 people in a single instance and then collectively move to another, queue or no. Their implementation is literally there to prevent that. Instances now hold over 600 people when folks are not surging in. If 1 is full you get put in 2 or 3. It doensn't care is Chi or an S rank is up, its not supposed to, its supposed to spread people out. You are locked out and the congested error pops up on your screen because the system has registered that its congested and you should not be there, please play on the instance it put you on.

    Getting more chances to rack up marks/tomes/nuts/tokens/fates etc is a sweet bonus for those of us who know to take advantage of the system but it is not their intended function.
