If someone just does not care for all the things that come with raiding; which some of those things are yelling, screaming, whining, not being on time, having to spend hours searching for one or two people because someone could not make it or chose not too, bitching who should have the gear and the endless name calling and blaming that goes on as to who's fault it was for the last wipe only after 20-30 minutes later you are all right back to the point where the boss is still standing and you got like 30 or 45 more minutes of raid time because someone took their time and decided to jerk around.
Seriously, I been through all this and more and I am more than sure I forgot a few things to add to the list, these things are what took place in Cata for me. I raiding in Wrath with a guild I started with in BC and the people never acted like this, if they did they were long gone. Cata was the end of raiding for me, until the LFR (which is nothing more than a dungeon wrapped in raid boss atmosphere). Now on average I have to wait for like 30 to 45 mins to get in and maybe have to deal with a few people standing around or be afk and then have an occasional raider whining and bash people for be bad.
I find that part so assuming because the LFR is for people from the people that never raided before up to the person like me that just does not no longer want to play the whole song and dance that seem to come with raiding. Sure there are many groups that don't do much of what I first explained in their guild, but I have had enough bad that I would just rather zoom through some content and move on with my life. I don't consider it easy mode either because you still have to deal with idiots of all kinds in the LFR. What I do find it to be is, I really don't have to engage another person, if i chose not too. Which in turns helps me to maintain my sanity more than anything else.
When I get in a decent LFR group of like minded people, it is truly a wonderful experience and very much a joy to complete. I do not have to here all the damn noise in vent, people whining and crying about this and that, It is so peaceful and takes me back to when I first started raiding way back when.
My incentive, is to have peace of mind to retain my sanity and every bit of it I can. if i have to deal with couple numb nuts per run in the LFR, so be it because it is much better than the alternative. That is what I think of your incentive.
