Mission Architect, farming, and Going Rogue

The way mission architect has changed the game makes it hard to look forward to Going Rogue. Since AE, it's become a chore to find even a simple mission team and one can all but forget about finding or putting together a tf unless it's a speed ITF. Even running an AE arc or even a single AE mission that isn't a farm has become next to impossible. What happened to these farms being cracked down on and removed from the game, their creators and biggest abusers stripped of their rights to create missions or having their accounts suspended? People blatantly advertise "ae boss farm" or "ae farm mish" in broadcast and nobody cares! Why is anyone going to care or pay for an expansion when what seems to be a vast majority of the playerbase isn't doing anything but AE missions? AE has even made its core idea obsolete. There seems to be no point in spending time to make a great story arc since nobody is going to play it unless they can use it to get to lvl 50 in under a day.

Not enough doom in this one.

I think it's a personal problem.

I have had zero trouble assembling regular mission teams blueside (Victory, Virtue) or redside (Infinity, Virtue). Wait, I think that's the operative term: assembling. If you're passive, you get passive results. It's like standing in your living room expecting a billion dollars to rain down on you. The people who want a particular type of team, go out and get it (or make it themselves).

But yeah, the Sahara will be a swamp with all the tears being shed here.
