I had a pretty good experience in LFR recently and thought I'd share it in the hopes of hearing about some other good stories.
My story doesn't start out so great, but in the end it all worked out!
I signed up for Fall of Deathwing and we got to the end, and sure enough the Agi one hander dropped. I hit Need, as it was a definite upgrade over my current main spec weapons. Sadly, another player won. Taking a closer look, I realised the player who won was Elemental. I alt-tabbed and checked his Armory, just out of curiosity. Main spec Elemental, off spec Resto. Frustrating that I'd rolled second highest to someone's off spec.
I tabbed back in and sure enough, he and I were some of the few players still standing around in the instance, so I figured what the hell, why not, and sent him a whisper asking if he might consider passing that to me as it was for my main spec. He went auto AFK and I waited it out for a while. He came back and I asked again.
He replied, "Got anything to trade for it?"
Me: "No, sorry, I don't. I usually only play Enhance so I only roll for Enhance gear." At this point, I thought, I won't be getting that weapon.
Next thing I know, the guy opened trade and handed it over. Good to see that being polite still gets you somewhere in a random group sometimes.
Anyone else have any positive LFR experiences to share?
