    Finding nothing to do ingame while waiting for a queue is a failure on your part.

    I craft while waiting for queues. I find the activity to be very calming, stress-free, and relaxing while waiting for what can often times be the complete opposite (DF groups)

    Can't really force people to do crafting/gatherings/etc because not all people enjoy that part of the game. Some of us prefer mashing buttons and killing something instead of chopping trees

    Noone's forcing anyone to do anything. I'm simply stating that there is plenty to do while waiting for a queue. Hell, be social, talk with people in your LS/FC or even anyone wandering around the zone, maybe they want to queue up too, you might end up getting into an instance faster.

    I get that not everyone enjoys running around whacking trees, punching rocks and trolling fish, but I also mentioned leveling a new job which can easily be done by picking up any stray quests, hunting log entries, or even catching a few fates.

    Exactly.

    I imagine that waiting on queues will be a bigger problem at 50 since I won't have quests to do while I wait.

    Besides that I craft, gather or kill stuff to get materials for crafting.

    It's nice to be able to make money via crafting/gathering/mob farming, while in queue.

    It's all on how productive you wanna be.

    I stare very awkwardly at other adventurers, for long periods of time. Sometimes I'll read my copy of Lalafells and Cooking: Your Guide to Your Very Own Walking Talking Meat Rack! If all else fails, I'll roleplay a cynical mage that breaks the fourth wall and hates sappy Twilight rps taking place in the Druthers on Balmung.

    Know this, ye who relentlessly jump over my table... All of the glasses spilt, all of the hats tipped, thy soul shall be recompense for the atrocities ye have committed against mine intended leisure after long hours of defending Eorzea. When the Void opens and all that stands between thou and agonizing, fiery damnation are my ilk, ye shall know despair as we step aside.
