Ugh, I can imagine. Not really a new thing, I remember silly demands
for access to groups right back to TBC, but always frustrating, I've
just entirely given up on non-queued instances now, and only very
rarely do the queued ones. A shame, as it's supposed to be an MMO, but
other players just suck the fun right out of things, so the more
soloable/duoable content the better as far as I'm concerned. Horrific
visions having flex size of 1-5 is very much something I'm liking,
wish they'd make all group content that way!

Sometime I should try DS9, I missed out on that as I went from TNG to
Voyager and never made time for more than the odd episode of DS9
alongside them... been years since I watched any of those tbh, hmm,
something to look out for when I have some time. Making time for tv
shows doesn't happen so much though as I still play WoW a fair bit,
and Guild Wars 2 as well, and I haven't played anything like as much
Classic as I intended to either (eh that's partly down to my guild
changing beyond recognition though, the friends I had there all quit
and it's full of strangers, even down to the entire officer team, and
half the policies that previously worked for me have changed. I'm
weighing up whether to stick it out or look elsewhere, while knowing
there's not really any other guilds out there that suit me and Classic
without a guild is, well, not great for a shy person who finds it a
ton of stress to find pugs)
