No. People in lfr can easily get away with not trying and slacking a lot easier then they can in any other mode.
No, a ton of players do that in LFR. And no, they don't go afk on every difficulty because in any other difficulty there is vent or mumble or some chat program being used to organize it. If you go afk in any other mode, you WILL be replaced. In LFR, you may not even be noticed. Auto attacking =/= not being afkPlayers go AFK on every boss in every difficulty, it's just that it goes relatively unpunished in LFR. Also, it's a very small minority that does this that are making the majority look bad. Another nice tar brush.
So? They wont because they will be kicked. Why? Because you can notice who slacks in flex. In LFR, most of them slack.Heroic raiders can slack in Flex.
Ok? I never once mentioned a number. Just that you can easily get away with it in lfr.Fallacious argument that 13 people in every LFR are AFK.
Most LFR runs do fail. Did I say every lfr was like that? No. But there are usually one or two people that Do not care and wont try or will just afk.Fallacious argument that personal experience can be extrapolated on to every LFR run ever.
Oh I don't know, the fact that the boss has HP!! And a berserk timer! That is where its listed. The fact that the boss Can enrage if he is not killed fast enough. Then what happens, he wipes.Then where is this requirement in the list of requirements to enter LFR? I don't see it anywhere.
Im a tank. The leading cause of me not joining LFR is the poor attitude of players, and the amount of players that will not try and just afk.There is a poll somewhere on these forums about tanks and the leading cause for the lack of tanks in LFR is the poor attitude they recieve from DPS, not the poor quality of players in LFR.
Typing in all caps so they will see =/= shouting at them. It means they are not paying attention or seeing it otherwise.They do not have any respect for you if they are being shouted at, so it's not surprising if they don't listen to you.
Yes, they can and that is why LFR fails more often then not. That is why I won't do LFR. Because they have the same attitude as you and then fail miserably.Players can do what they like in LFR. Players don't need to be told that fire is bad, that's a waste of time typing into chat. Fire is usually ignorable in LFR anyway.
Hope so. Because at the moment, there is none.Incentives for tanks in LFR will come, I'm sure of it.
A boss has mechanics that has to be done?! What madness is this? Welcome to the world of raiding, where bosses have mechancis and you have to follow them or fail. Which is what happens.The mechanics should be intuitive in LFR. If they're required reading material then either the mechanics aren't intuitive or they can be ignored.
LFR is here to stay because removing it would mean that they admit it is bad. If raids are not good, players will not stay. This isn't up for discussion. If they do not make end game content, or good end game content, then people WILL and do quit. LFR will not change the fact that it has to be done if they want players to stay. I can see you wont listen. You are the type of people that has ruined LFR. "Its easiy, why should I care?" Because if you don't care the good players won't continue to carry you.Look it up yourself.
..poor quality Firelands/DS style raids with few bosses and re-used content, yes.
...where the participation of raids had hit an all time low, as well as the boss count for the tier, because Blizzard couldn't justify spending resources on content hardly anyone saw. Hence why LFR was rushed in to try to save raiding.
That because Ulduar had an easy quarter that everyone could see, and Naxx was relatively easy, so that justified spending lots of resources on raids.
Had no-one seen ICC, say, because it was too difficult, it would have incentivised LFR earlier.
However, the quality of the raid entirely depends on how many people saw the previous raid. LFR is here to stay because it justifies a large resource percentage on raids. It's a cyclic argument.

No raids = no players because people would get to max level then go "no what?". If there isn't anything, people quit. Heroic raid or not, raids must be around in order for them to keep players.
