The TBC one also did automatic invites, you had the option to auto add members. There was just no teleport to the dungeon.

You had to phisically go to the meeting stone or inkeepers to get in the queue ... ofc hardly anyone used it.

Blizzard dont want that because ppl dont want that and same ppl made and used this tool Its so messed up. Imo grp finder tool from retail its perfect. No automatching and a special place to find other ppl lookin for same part of content without messed up chat spammin. Tbh i didnt really remember old grp finder tool how it looks and works. Im playin since vanilla and i was suprised that some kind of tool ever exist in the past lol.

After 6 months. Yes. Try do it now. Spam all around about boosts. When i was lvlin my mage on classic normal grps was all around. When i tried to lvl up my war alt there were only boosts teams.
The wise wolf who's pride is her wisdom isn't so sharp as drunk.
I was on Incendius as well. There were 16 total lv60s on and 45 total players. Checked at ~6pm eastern. Its kinda fucked man. It went from one of the better servers to nothing. I remember it having a 4 hour queue well into launch. I had the census addon at launch and it was well over 3800 horde players at peak time and now its a ghost town. I was gonna level a new toon there but ended up just making a new toon on Mankrik instead. I gave 55gold to the only other player that happened to be in orgrimmar at the time.
About the player count quote, i cant remember if it was 2800 or 3800, but i do remember it being horde dominated something like 58-62% or something.

That and, it wouldn't even put together a proper group, it would just group you with anyone else who was queued for the same dungeon as you. So you'd end up with a group of 5 DPS. Allegedly it would TRY to find a "tank" class and a "healer" class but it wasn't very good at it.
This addon, LFG Tool (iirc), was obviously realm locked as all classic realms are realm locked. But the addon could use the realm global chat channels and coordinate all the LFG Tool users so that you'd simply select which dungeon(s) you wanted to do and your role, then the addon would "broadcast" that to the global chat channel and anyone who used the addon (who tracks the global chat channel) would then pick up on this "broadcast" and put them into the addon list.
So if you were making a group and needed people then you'd put into the addon, then the addon would put that into the global chat channel in a format that triggers the addon for other users so that the other users can see that you're looking for people for whatever dungeon. Through the addon you could then automatically whisper to the party leader and the party leader would automatically invite you back, making the addon more or less identical to the Retail Group Finder tool.
Yes it's not LFG and I didn't claim that it was, but it is semi-automated and makes grouping up a lot easier/organized.
Again, I'm not saying that this was a bad thing ...or a good thing. But Blizzard decided that they didn't want it in Classic Vanilla, hence why they removed some of the usefulness of it.
