I have created a chat room on the Line app to help make the looking for group process more effective.

This will help many of us find at least 2 other players to maintain vote control in a dungeon.

When posting in the chat please use this format:

LF (what you are looking for)
Your Gamertag-
Your character name-
Your role- (tank/healer/dps)
Your level-
Your GS-
Dungeon you want to run-

Chat link is:
http://line.me/R/ti/g/FKAn5asE4r

Or message me on Line and I will add you to the chat.

Chat title:
XB1 Neverwinter LFG

This chat is a LFG system only. Do not post trades, spam, disrespect one another, or troll. Violators will be removed and blocked. If it gets large enough I will assign moderators to help enforce the guidelines. Please contact me using Line with any questions, concerns, and/or comments. My Line ID is BoatManFall3n

    Joined up. I think this could be something really good if we get even a couple dozen people.

    Thanks all for the positive feedback. Hopefully as the thread gets more visibility we get more people in the chat.

    The more people that are in the chat the easier it will be to find a group and alleviate this vote kicking epidemic.

    Replied to your message. It seems there are plenty of active players that are in the same boat as me, tired of joining guilds that claim 100+ and 150+ members then logging on and only seeing 3 people online...

    Hoping the LFG chat can bring these active players together so we can all enjoy the game a little more. Who knows, we might even get the gear we want without being ninja kicked the second the last boss dies.

    If anyone is unfamiliar with Line. It is a messaging app for google and ios that doesnt cost anything and makes communication easier. Download and add boatman he will steer you to the nw lfg room.

    Thank you good sir. We already have quite a few members in the chat but the more the merrier.

    It is very gratifying to see groups being made every day and people enjoying the game more without fear of the boot and loot.

    I think it also makes the game more enjoyable simply by being able to play with people you are familiar with.

    Cheers!

    This chat was a great idea but unfortunately this promise was never fulfilled. Chat is anything but a LFG chat. Mostly general Xbox One discussion. Nobody willing to moderate. A missed opportunity. :-(

    Not sure if you are in the same chat room as I am wanderingkyng, but each day I post offers for groups. Since the inception of the LINE room and seeing it go from 11 to 33 members I have formed several groups with members from there. There are challenges with keeping the general chat and such out for sure, however it really is not bad when I compare it to other LINE channels where people have sticker wars and post endless streams of meme pics.

    With that being said, how many times have you posted a comment there and tried to plan a dungeon group? Feel free to hit me up there and I will be more than happy to try and coordinate more runs.

    No worries. It actually worked great one time when I needed a DPS to fill a hole in my group back when there were around 15 users. I'm sure if I were to post a LFG advert on the app I would get some useful replies which is why it's such a shame I had to uninstall LINE because 90% of the chatter in that channel had nothing to do with LFG... heck only about half of it was Neverwinter related. It's fine for people to stray but it made the app useless to me as I had to scroll through a lot of spam to find any actual LFG posts. My main concern was nobody seemed willing to moderate the chat, to step up and say "stop discussing that in this chat", so I uninstalled. Great idea just needs some leadership. Maybe LINE was not the best way to go if it encourages the type of behavior your describe. Maybe GroupMe?

    Have groupme, not as good as LINE IMHO. The step up in chat app for something specific would be Palringo. You have a bit more mod capabilities and can have script bots to do things such as an hourly post of rules or upcoming events. Each of the chat apps has little pros and cons for sure, LINE seems to be the one I have encountered the most people having installed and are familiar with.

    I tried setting one run for just members of the channel by posting a comment and allowing people to like or add to it(had a really great group that night btw). One person added to it to reserve a space on the team that way, which leads me to believe people need to be shown how how to utilize the app to suit the intent of the channel. Perhaps as more people join and attempt this it will catch on and become the norm.

    If you ever want to test out different setups with Palringo or LINE I would be happy to help. However, until there are other things in place I think this channel just needs a larger player base and more consistent use.

    There were two individuals carrying out a lengthy conversation in the LFG channel. I was at work and could not confront them right away.

    Once I warned them and they continued, I removed both of them from the chat. I also sent you a pm informing you that the situation has been resolved but you never replied.

    You are more than welcome to join us again.

    We also created a secondary room for those interested in general chat. It helps keep the LFG chat strictly LFG and when people want to simply chat they can do so in the general chat group.

    And you did not see the message I sent because i sent it in a pm as to be discreet and not publicly shame people.
