OP: I post this as a question to Bungie, please do not reply with a philosophy
the community wishes for optional matchmaking or a in-game LFG system, would you care to respond to there feedback that you continuously remove from trending and highest rated?
before you answer please read this post by Lost Sols

he highlights many valid points and these are shared throughout the community and a poll by gallp13
https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/124099307/0/0
showing the current difference, it is only 1000 or so votes but shows a clear divide
if you wish to make Bungie notice please like and comment, I will however be ignoring posts until Bungie answer the question, I will also be muting anyone who throws around insults e.g. calling someone or a group of people kids, this discussion is for those who respect each other's opinions.
thank you

My opinion is that instead of people coming to the forums and complaining about it use that time to find a clan or use lfg after a few days or weeks you should have enough friends to play with.

~Customized Bump!~ [b]In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth(needed Implementations!) is a revolutionary act; However, The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it(Bungie(vision), ignorance may deride it(bungie(vision), but in the end, there it is. Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't goin' away!

~Customized Bump!~ [b]Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors(Bungie(vision). But today we kneel only to Truth(What Destiny Needs Implemented)! Whatever you vividly imagine(Vast Open Worlds), ardently desire(Vault Space, OPMM, In-game LFG, ect.), sincerely believe(Needs Cinematic Story!!), and enthusiastically act upon(What you Bump and Like!)... must inevitably come to pass! [/b]~Khalil Gibran and Paul J. Meyer

Bump! More options = everyone wins. Makes no difference if I'd use it or not.
-
Bump. I don't think it's ever going to happen. If it did people would realize just how completely broken this game really is.
-
It's not going to happen. Bungie would have addressed this long ago. It's 9 months later and nothing changed. They are listening, but they have more important things to tend to like facial hair or wearing your helmet at the tower. I'm all for [b]OPTIONAL MM[/b]
-
Yes to *optional* match making
-
Sudden surge? We've been telling them since beta to make everything mm. Raids need a raid finder. But nightfalls and poe need it.
-
-
Since the consensus is for OPTIONAL matchmaking I really don't see any harm.
-
So in principal I generally disagree with mm for raids and nightfalls since these activities require vast amounts of cooperation and coordination. That being said I have come to change my mind recently in so much as that at the very least everyone should have an opportunity to try these activities and I fail to see how optional mm (something you opt into) would hurt the game). One things for sure if they tried it at least on a trail basis it would undoubtedly put an end to this debate.

https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/130106038/0/0 And optionalmm ftw
-
Sorry but the same 70 or 80 kids crying for MM on this forum barely make up the community. Until you can provide data that shows how many players actually use this forum, you can't speak for the community.
-
The ONLY positive to have mm would be you save 5 mins on a lfg site or forum but there's a lot of negatives! Bungie knows this! If it's not there from release and the game has done absolutely fine then I can't see them adding it now!
-
All the MM haters should STFU and get back into scouring LFG and asking newly befriended randoms if they got "any friends they can invite, etc" because they been waiting a while to get the 4th, 5th, 6th person in the fireteam. Those who are for MM, well if it's granted, then we get to experience the stress free efficiency gains. To all Haters - make sure you STAY THE F#%! OUT of MM if ever it gets implemented for raids.

well said!!
