Upset with Cross Realms

The worst thing Blizzard did to WoW is invent the idea of cross realm !@#$. It completely destroy the camaraderie that comes from getting to know everyone on you server. Now WoW is a game where you can be in groups of people from all other servers and you will never see again. What the ^&*! were they thinking when they did this? What possible gain is there? Some people like being on low pop servers where there isn't a lot of activity. What #$%^ Blizzard this pisses me off to no end that they made this. Another example is the Booty Bay fishing contest. If there wasn't any goddamn cross realm !@#$ you wouldn't have to worry about so many %^&*ing people from the other faction just killing you off while you're fishing. Instead it's a cluster @#$% of people from all different realms. You might not be competing with them for 1st on YOUR server but they still can fish from the same pools you can AND $%^&ing kill you while you're there. If there was no cross realm bull$%^& you would actually be fishing against your realms people not $%^&ing 50 different realms.(##RESPBREAK##)16##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##Locked at the request of the OP
I've renamed the thread. As long as people don't circumvent the language filter we generally don't get too upset but I think we can probably draw a line at thread titles.
Generally, we get that you're upset but the people on this forum aren't who you're upset with so stop shouting at them and discuss your issues.

Someone sounds a little butt hurt. Cross realm, whilst having some disadvantages is also very helpful. Filling out zones that seem emptier. I also noticed you seem to be one of those people that feel everything should belong to them with no competition.
If you stopped being angry for 1 minute, you will meet some awesome people.

1) You make a more solid point with out the swearing.
2) There are realms without the feature active.
3) It's called an MMO for a reason.

I'm sick of being forced to use the dungeon finder because that is all anybody does and being put into groups of people who I don't know and will not know after this dungeon. It truly ruined WoW now there is no journey it's so streamlined because hit level 15 and you can dungeon finder and be placed with people from any other realm. If you're the type of player who actually wants get to know the people in game rather than power level til you're capable of doing raids then cross realm really ruined the game. What is the point of having different servers and offer server changes for an outrageous price when they're all mixed in a *!@#ty way? Why can't we go back to the old format of you get into a guild and that is who you mainly do dungeons with to level and then find people you're level? Now it's just whelp time to log in and go dungeon queue with people you will never do a dungeon with again. If the dungeon finder was instead just set to you're realm you would have a VERY good chance of getting the same people and you then create a strategy instead of the thought process we have no where it's "I'll never see these people again so it doesn't matter how !@#$%^y I act." Before cross realm if you were a %^&* in a raid or a dungeon or to your guild you wouldn't be able to do much. Now you can be a &*!@ to whomever you want and there is no backlash because you'll only know them for 15 minutes.

Cross realm didn't ruin anything; you can still make friends, can still run dungeons in a premade group, and still have fun. Heck, with the addition of Cross Realm, now people who are RealID friends can actually do stuff in the world.
And if the Dungeon Finder was set to realm...the same !@#$ would happen; you saw that in Vanilla, BC and Wrath were people were asses and still ended up getting groups.
Don't blame the tools; it's the community that causes the problems.

Are you removed? You're completely misunderstanding what I'm saying. No !@#$ there are other players in WoW. I wanna know why the @#$% they made cross realm bull^&*!. When I first started playing WoW you would find a group of people to play with and you would befriend them and that's who your group would be and you would level together. Now it's just dungeon finder that's cross server. You're not playing with people from your server you will know them for a matter of moments. You used to be able to get to know your server now it's just you know your guild.(##RESPBREAK##)2060##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##Do not use terms like that, in a derogatory fashion, to our community members.

I can see you're going to be a fun addition to these forums. If you hate it so much, stop playing. No one is forcing you to endure all these hardships. Seriously grow up and learn to not swear every sentence.

You can still do your dungeons with you realm players and friends, you just invite them to a group and queue up, it will be instant tho.
Again, WoW is an MMO, go play another game if you don't like cross realms.(##RESPBREAK##)2060##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

You can easily get to know your server...and the other servers. I've found a lot of dungeon finder groups very pleasant without any jerks in them. I've watched as a dungeon finder group ended up making friends with RealID.
Also, for a fun fact, your Trade chat is still Server based, so if you are trying to put together a pug group there, it would be your server only.

^Exactly, you can just ask in Trade chat, if there is a player that isn't from your realm, you can just ignore him or tell him that is your server only.
Scenarios is another choice too, you can do it with people on other realms, but you will almost always get people from YOUR realm.
EDIT: I said other realms too because of your Real ID friends.

OP - I think you're confusing CRs with CRZ. Especially with your example of the Booty Bay fishing contest.
That said, with me being the biggest hater of CRZ, I actually see the point of Connected Realms and are looking forward to them. They solve Low Pop problems, with is sorely needed by the game.
Cheers.

I have a lot of friends made despite CRZ and LFG.
You know the secret? Talk to people.
Hard I know right?
OP, the dynamics of making friends and having a community have not changed, in fact with RealID it's even easier.
I have quite a few people I met via LFG on my friends list and whom I talk to and play with on a daily basis.
Before CRZ my main server had quite a toxic community, because of CRZ and eventual VR I will probably not be transferring all my toons to another server as that toxicity has been pretty well diluted.

Don't think i am the only one, but i am completely missing any point that the OP is attempting to make?
CRZ has no effect at all on your ability to create a flourishing guild of like minded people and do what you want to do in terms of dungeons or raids with people you know, in fact with the addition of the merged realms you will be able to grown your guilds with people from other realms as well giving you the opportunity to cast a wider net for these purposes.
You will always find that you will get out of a community as much as you are willing to put in to it and if you are one of those that would prefer to lay back and wait for it all to come to you then you will have a poor time of it i'm afraid.
Get stuck in, get to know some people and enjoy yourself.

I happen to be friends with a few players who are not in my guild. Some of them aren't even on my realm, but we can do Flex and previous-tier raids together because of RealID.
CRZ improves the ability to make friends.

It truly ruined WoW now there is no journey it's so streamlined because hit level 15 and you can dungeon finder and be placed with people from any other realm.
Everyone ranting about the LFG tool did not play in vanilla. In vanilla you had to set up shop in a capital city and build a dungeon group. You know how you built it? By repeatedly calling out in channel 1 or 2. LFM for <dungeon name> need healer and one DPS. Or you could do a who and send people random tells. "Hey priest, hope you're a heal spec. Want to join my group?" Once you had built the required, tank healer and three DPS you then had to travel to the dungeon and run it.
If you had to leave the dungeon to go repair you had to actually hearth out and travel back, or run all the way to the dungeon entrance and then ride, not FLY to the nearest repair/vender hub.
Oh and do you know what you had to do if one of the five members had to leave early? GO BACK TO THE CITY AND LOOK FOR A REPLACEMENT, willing to pick up in the middle of a run..
It was such good fun and really led to a tight community.... NOT... JUST NOT.

Just Vanilla? It was the same till for 50% of Wrath... Even when ToC 5 man was released I remember summoning people to Argent Tourn.
Only when ICC came did they introduce the LFG; thank god.

So apparently getting to know people from other servers is a sin, but getting to know the people on your server isn't?
