Are PUG queues dead?

I've noticed that since they instituted LFG channel and killed the desire to do T2s that the queue system has seemed to get worse. T2s forget it. but even MC and CN I keep getting these groups of two other players that quit and leave me stuck in the instance for a half hour unable to requeue.
I personally am not a fan of the LFG chat, it has never gotten me a group and I tend to stay away from it. It seems they took the worst of all queing systems and implented just those aspects.

the problem is queueing for a dungeon that is suposed to be END-GAME and getting only blue items..every single run.... how many runs like that can you make before being pissed and lose interest?
the queue system also doesnt help, the instances are long and if you lose a player you cant get a replacement and just wasted an hour of your life.... that makes people queue less and less..
the loots from DD being BoP also doesnt help the queues..
even the pvp queues are getting longer and longer because most people are tired of ragequitters that leave a match 2 minutes in with a difference of only 20 or 30 points, making the rest of their team fighting 2 or 3 vs 5 every single match, so they just dont queue anymore...
It's not only ragequitters. I quit PvP all the time. I'm only there for the daily because I get absolutely no enjoyment out of PvP. So if I see a premade or people that seem to be speced for pvp I'm out in a heartbeat. Just my personal feeling that if you are going to put so much effort into beating on underspeced people in such a crappy aspect of the game, you deserve to have my entire team quit.
which is why the penalty for leaving a match should be your daily CD is reset to 24 hours from that point and you get no more glory while it's on CD either. Can't wait until they implement something like that...
We are definitely dominating, and we are always about to win.
Yep i cant wait for that too, but its probably too late now, the damage is done.
Lol I know this comes as a shock to you but those other 9 people that are still in the PvP match you just left are actually enjoying themselves, they like to PvP which is why they Q'd for it in the first place, and you just screwed their match. You acting like a child and giving up the moment you see a shred of difficulty means that 9 other people wasted 15 minutes. So you would be getting "punished" for wasting 135 minutes of other peoples times.
Not to mention why the hell should you get AD and glory for PvP if you leave a match?? Lol hell no, you should get nothing for 24 hours as soon you leave a match. If you legit DC they let you reconnect now, so that isn't a problem either.

I tried to get full set of Archmage to test it but I couldn't do it in about a week because rarely anyone is doing T1 dungeons (lfg channel doesn't help as everyone is looking only for peeps for CN/MC and only 12k+ GS).
I don't know why people are not doing T1, maybe its because many people left the game (and only guys with T2 are left) or no one is bothering doing dungeons and gather AD only to buy their gear off the AH.
I still have instant queue offers with two of my characters. Don't play a dps if you want that too.
First this is the first thread like this I opened, Second I was actually trying to point out how when I queue I now get thrown in with 3 out of five players and end up stuck in an instance. Like CN second campfire with no way out.
If you do not want to spec/gear for it then no join it.
Is like saying someone is pvp specced/geared and asks raids to be made more easy because he isnt pve specced or sth.
About premades....posted in another thread as well,make a Guild vs Guild event so ppl can pt que there and leave domination matches as solo que only...
not best solution and wont 100% balance but will get rid of premades at least^^.
On topic about CN is because of ppl farm first boss and leave empty dead dungeons ^^.
Too bad because how is someone supposed to get loot after the BoP-Change? The chance for a set-item to drop in the dungeons themselves is pretty bad, so going for it without DD is pointless. DD is pretty much the only way to gear up for T2-Dungeons. But how are you supposed to do that when you can't even get gear in the first place because Queues are dead even during DD-Times?
And forget about using blue gear. Can you guys imagine that they STILL haven't fixed the **** enchants on these things? Yeah, they still don't work on a lot of blue-gear, great stuff, a lot of fun.

As for PvP, I agree with a penalty for leaving. AD should not be awarded to quitters. If you don't like PvP, don't Q for it. I don't know how many times I've been the only person left in the group, but I still jump off the spawn point to meet my instant death. It's better than quitting.
There's really no point for the non-PvPers to participate whereas before there was. That can only lead to longer queues when there are less people in the pool.
And as far as dungeons go I don't do those at all really due to me not being in a guild and not wanting to spend an hour getting to the final boss just to have 2 people leave after a wipe and not being able to get anyone new in there. Which leaves you dead in the water.
GG? lol that's a joke since I can't play as I am not in a guild. And not going to bother creating different accounts just to game the system. It's a stupid requirement.
To be honest I'm not even complaining about those things since it means less time spent in NW and more time doing actual enjoyable things in real life. With all the nerfs (and bugs) the game isn't all that fun for me and definitely not the game I decided to support by purchasing a founders pack.
Completely agree. It was so, so stupid to require guild membership for Gauntlgrym. MMORPG Guilds are more often than not a huge pain in the ***. There's no way I'd join one just to do Gauntlgrym.
To even further your point being in a Guild adds nothing to GG. You can only queue in with 5 members. I mean I was really expecting 20v20 Guild vs Guild kinda thing. So its kinda dumb but can be fun occasionally, but why can't we do 20v20 more than just during GG?? They killed PvP but not making it really worth it and not giving any attention to it. Most of the people who do PvP do so for the 4k AD and thats it. I'm convinced only 40-100 people actually PvP on the Beholder server period.
