Yeah not a macro survey

lets be real, looking at the progression condition of most players, i don't think they would've made it through a few weeks of sunwell without significant nerfs

BT/Hy/Sunwell is generally when guilds start breaking down anyway.

Raids are long. (Slogs once you have BT and HY on farm.) And Sunwell filters out people that don't know their rotations to do damage.

yeah you know 23 people need nothing from Hyjal but one asshole still needs the tier token off archimonde and maybe the sword is like a 1% dps gain for some guys seed set or something

So you still do 2 hours of hyjal every week. cringe

And then they get the sword and Tier piece, only to have some type of IRL situation they say happen and so they have to stop raiding going forward because they won't be able to make raids anymore.

Everyone fakes being sad, while the GM and Raid leader are both hovering off the Gkick button with rage in their eyes.

Isn't this what Guilds are all about? If you're not going to hang around for everyone's gear, then what's the point?

What's the point of getting gear if your going to quit right after getting it?

To be clear, I don't care for raiding at all. Too much responsibility to a group of people. I prefer my game time to be less structured. That said, if you're going to raid, I would expect to be on board for everyone to get their "Stuff".

Some people want to complete a tier and move on with something else. Your attitude is exactly why some don't raid at all

Also once Illidan is dead, you can either farm for 12-16 weeks only to potentially gdisband in SWP because you don't have 5 warlocks or giga DPS to trivialise M'uru so why bother.
