You log on to FFXI, you search for around 5 minutes. If there are people around, you invite them and form a group. Otherwise you go do something else.

You log on to FFXIV, you stand around for 5 minutes. If there are people around, they'll end up in the party. Otherwise you... stand around doing nothing? Why?

Again, the systems are different, but it doesn't make any sense to me why they're different for someone who took that approach in FFXI.
You cant look for members while doing somethin else in a party.
lets say i whant a party to grind.I put party sea up nobody joins , o well i go duo my leves.While im duoing my leves I WONT BE ABLE TO SEE IF PEOPLE ARE AVAILABLE.

With flag you can STILL DO THINS IN PARTY and be able to look for members and when rdy meet up at designated location.

Is just one small example . Im completely agaisnt mechanics that includes watch paint dry .
