Well, Synapse and Citadel are two of the worst written and grindiest TFs in the game. It wouldn't surprise me if people juist don't want to do them anymore.

I would recommend posting in the Freedom Server forum to see if there is interest. With as many people that frequent that server I'm sure you could find plenty. Just pick a time and day and have people sign up.
In addition, if you haven't already, join one of the several chat channels for that server. I never have a problem pulling together a TF there, though to be honest I haven't participated in much outside of the incarnate trials of late.
Easiest way is to schedule it as others have said. That way people will be more likely to have the time etc. You may wind up leading it yourself which is a good learning experience.

I'm in three different channels dedicated to TFs (on Virtue) and even at that, there's been noticeably fewer TFs being run. This weekend was better -- I did ITF twice, LGTF, STF, a CoP trial, and a redside hami raid... I think that was it. But yeah, it's been a bit harder to get on TFs in the last month.

On Saturday I put out feelers for a Citadel on Guardian, and it filled quickly. I even had to turn someone away. Everyone was cooperative and friendly, and we knocked off the TF in 82 minutes or so with a modicum of snappy banter.
It's possible that I just got lucky, but it seemed like there was interest out there.

Unfortunately that's usually what happens when the new stuff comes out. Especially this stuff that actually gives people a reason to dust off their old level 50 characters and gain more stuff on them. Also, as someone else said, they are some of the oldest TFs in the game, long, very tedious and not much fun (for some people) compared to the newer content.|

Have you been trying to find one forming to hop on, or form one yourself? I'll bet there are others that want to run them, the trick is finding them, and you'll probably have better luck trying to form one yourself rather than waiting hoping someone else does. I know I have run all of the 6 signature TFs since the weekly strike targets came out because I finally decided to go for my TF Commander accolade and didn't have any of the badges (except maybe Numina).
I've been trying to get a Kahn together for the last two weekends. No joy. I had no problem getting a Sutter together the week it was the WST. I can definitely sympathize with the OP.
not had a problem getting anything together on victory server, if i want a tf, can form it up no problem
I have noticed it as well on Justice. I am about 15 shards short of having my alpha slotted but it takes forever to get a TF started. Everyone is doing the new league stuff. I did finally find on Justice that people are gathering in Pocket D to arrange league play. I have yet to get the new queue system to work...
if you can't find a TF group, go form one yourself, that is your best Option and it's work 100 Percent of the time. People will Still do weeklys alot, so those are the common Tfs going on, try Joining a Global Channel or two on your home server, that will also work.

Oh yes, people suddenly decided that they didn't want to do Synapse and Citadel anymore, right after doing it for years. It's certainly completely and utterly unrelated to I20.| Well, Synapse and Citadel are two of the worst written and grindiest TFs in the game.

Seriously, the amount of effort some people go through to claim the game is always super fine and nothing is ever wrong... You could probably design your own MMO from scratch and end up with it being better than CoH if you used all that energy differently.

I would think the same thing could be said about the doomsayers. I've seen people go from thread to thread to expound in detail about how bad things are and how much they hate the game.

I led a Katie Hannon TF recently. I hadn't done one of those since merits were introduced. I think we were the only people in Croatoa, though.
I've found that lately it is a lot harder to form up TFs than it used to be. I'm hoping this is just because i20 is still just new shiny. Might even out a lot more...eventually.
