2. Will this ruin the community of the game? I doubt it, with all the other content that the game provides why do you consider that this will be it's Achilles Heal in regards to the game community. I think you are jumping to conclusions and should see the results of it being in game before you shun it.

3. For those of you saying you don't want or like it... You do not HAVE to participate in it. There are plenty of people who will participate in it and enjoy it. Why would anyone mind brining in more content and a variety of the likes that we never saw before in XI? I am personally excited about SE looking at this

4. Not everyone has the time of day to get together a group of people and do a dungeon. This would allow for people who are more casual to be able to group up and have success in this area. As an example: We run an NA / EU linkshell unfortunately we are light on EU people at this time, so this content would allow our EU members to participate in content we are not always able to accommodate them with. Not to mention it will allow for some surprise and variety while doing dungeons and or a chance to play with other community members and make new friends...

5. Those of you saying you would quit because of "this" or "that" which was implemented are being selfish and immature. Do you not realize that using a threat to promote fear is the same as terrorism or a terrorist threat? You should be ashamed and truthfully anyone who provides such a worthless comment or post in this regards should just leave anyway. We do not need people being immature. Fine go have your tantrum but SE doesn't need people like you here and neither does the community. Give constructive feedback or log off.

6. "Omg I might die in this dungeon, omg people may go afk, what if this guy is a noob, this group may not have a clue how this dungeon works... Omg GM Dave shows up and throws me in a dungeon with Fafnir..."
Really? Stop being so elitist and learn how to play with others. It's called a game and we are hear to have fun. There is going to be a % of people who don't understand or it will be there first time. It is called helping and educating people. Or like I said above you do not need to participate in it at all, that would fix your concerns right? Besides the fact of the matter is you can do dungeons without having to do the random dungeon finder.... do it with your friends who are good enough for you and be done with it.

There is nothing wrong with cross server communication and interaction... if anything I see it as being very beneficial. That is if they mean cross server or just across your own server and that is the world they speak of. The only thing I see in these posts of doubt is FEAR. I am not a mind reader nor can I predict the future and neither are you or can you. For my part I am going to support SE on this because the truth is none of us know any of the negatives that will come of these dungeons being implemented IF ANY... All I know that gaining any new content in XIV and new between XIV and XI is a good thing. I am excited that the creators and devs are willing to explore new options for our MMO.
1. I do not, and will not understand why anyone would play a Massive Multiplayer Online game solo. This is against the premise of an MMO.

2. We are not jumping to conclusions. Those of us opposing this system have encountered it in several other MMOs and have seen what effects it has on a servers community. Don't make snap judgements before you have your information, and be sure to read peoples' posts clearly as it has been stated by I, and several others that we have seen this happen already.

3. Your previous point stated how we were jumping to conclusions by stating this would harm server communities, while you proceed to tell us that if the feature is implemented "you don't have to use it." So, you're saying this won't harm the server community, yet are promoting that people do not use this function who don't want to......... further segregating the community?

4. This is one of the benefits I have seen from the dungeon finder, and that is convenience. But convenience kills games. I like to my games to have a bit of depth to them. If I can do everything extremely quick, I've no reason to play the game long.

5. You're going on about being respectful & immature while wagging your finger at people... So I say to you as well, give constructive feedback or log off.

6. Again, you spout off like you're some kinda messiah, telling people to be respectful and not immature, while proceeding to do more finger pointing & accusing of players for what they have concerns for... so... hypocrite much?
