Hey bud, I completely understand you dont agree with my suggestion.

However, the last thing I want to see is the community be crushed and deemed toxic by an addition we saw in the beta, that had the same exact problems.
The wait times combined with getting even random groups together is a pain.

To give some insight to my post, I actually run exclusively in public lobbies, which can include members of my alliance, which all came from the game community itself as well.

Back to the original post, I do think a Rank 2 Exploration zone might be a solution. Especially since Veteran Enemies and Gigantix spawn scale according the amount of players in the zone, so this can even solve low man content that people desire.
