Dear Warmane Staff,
I write to you in these dark times as a simple citizen of Lordaeron. Like many of you I started playing WoW long time ago, in my case March 2005 version 1.8.0 (the golden days as they say) until the days of Wrath of the Lich King. Then I found Molten in 2010, played on Frostwolf x3 after which Lordaeron x1 was launched and everyone was so excited about. And I have to say it was the best Wrath of the Lich King experience I ever experienced in terms of leveling, random dungeon finding, battlegrounds and Raids - Smooth and Enjoyable. Sure it had its own flaws like any other realm, even if bugs were getting fixed at a slower pace and Wintergrasp was disabled, people didn't mind and were still loyal to Lordaeron regardless. Many were leveling on Ragnaros x20 and then transferring to Lordaeron because they knew that this server was the real deal and of course the amount of time it took to level even with RDF and heirlooms available, but they always came to back Lordaeron. Alas... most of us suffered a great deal of grief when we lost our characters during the tragedy of database loss at the end of 2014 and that has remained a scar in our hearts until nowadays. We all wanted a Rebirth of what once was our beloved Lordaeron realm. I am certain many of you will agree with what I have said. Sadly, the experience of the new realm doesn't quite feel the same as we had hoped for or as it should feel when doing dungeons and perhaps even the raids often times.
That being said, I wanna strongly suggest you consider enabling Random Dungeon Finder for us. I understand many will disagree with me on what I am strongly suggesting, but consider a few things. Many people have left the server. And the reason being is because one realizes that grinding endlessly, spending more time than you should on finding dungeon groups and on traveling turns the gameplay into a nuisance rather than pleasure. What once was has lost its charm as the game progressed and many of us simply do not have the time we had before in searching for a group up to 20 minutes just to do a simple dungeon, be that Wailing Caverns/Deadmines, Ragefire Chasm/Shadowfang Keep or a Daily Heroic. And at level 80 it's vital for saving an enormous amount of time. The population has decreased significantly since after a few months of the server's launch, the numbers speak for themselves. One of the key roles in keeping this server alive and to save what's left of it is to bring back RDF. It will definitely ease the tensions and will make the game more enjoyable. I couldn't care less about raidbuffs or heirlooms as I understand the reason why they have been removed. But to say that people socialize more and are having a more memorable adventure while the RDF is disabled is complete nonesense. It's the truth. It's everything but social and memorable., rather a penance. It's time you realize that if you don't do something about it real soon then we may not have a Lordaeron tomorrow. Lordaeron was mutilated enough by dying and being brought back to life with so many customizations that I think disabling RDF is the last nail in the coffin.
I can merely conclude that Random Dungeon Finder is an important feature that will bring only a positive impact to the realm and the community. As it was meant to do since the day it was released by Blizzard Entertainment.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Warm regards,
Illuminatus
Lordaeron Citizen
