Can you imagine what I would do if I could do all I can?

No, all 40man raids were good for is carrying people and lag.
No.
40 man raids were terrible.

Said it before, said it again - in a lot of cases (read: not all), most people who want 40 mans back were never placed with the responsibility of organizing the damn things, or even A PART of them.
It was an absolute NIGHTMARE to set these things up. You could have 10 people slack through the first bit of Molten Core, and once you hit the later bosses, they couldn't anymore and you either had to compensate or find other people that possibly could have been worse. It was just a joke.
Definitely a no for 40 mans. 25 is plenty. The lower the number, the more personal responsibility on each player = a much more productive environment.
Btw: This is brought up at least once a month, if not much more frequently, around here.

Can you put a third choice, "Not in a million years!"
No. Never. Worst idea I have read in a very long time.
It can be hard enough to get 25 player together who aren't idiots. 40? Go do an IoC or AV and tell me how that goes.
Whoever does not miss 40-mans has no heart. Whoever wishes them back has no brain.
Yes, but perhaps only in a hardmode only sense, for the absolute top guilds. Just a bit more content, and really would reinforce the idea of bring the player not the class, where 10m HMs suck so hard now.
Who is Chris Metzen? He is supposed to be Turkish. Some say his father was German. Nobody believed he was real. Nobody ever saw him or knew anybody that ever worked directly for him, but to hear Zarhym tell it, anybody could have worked for Metzen. You never knew. That was his power. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. And like that... poof! He's gone.
When i want to do a 40man i go AV xD
I would love to do 40man raids. However, we're sometimes having a hard time filling up our 10man group. Also, it would have to drop 15 items to make the average loot-hungry player happy.
Ahh thx for the replys guys. I never played pre bc 40 mans and just wanted know people past exp in them. i can see were your coming from with carrying people but they seem like such good fun. The lag part u guys are on about now is abit daft condiering u can get a perfectly running comp for about £500 wich mine cost and i run AV on ultra with 60 fps.
But yeah thx for the replies guys apreciate it.

I voted yes, but only under an OPTIONAL raid mode of current content. With today's communities, it will not be as fun as people may or may not remember it being, and they will be hell to organize. Pretty much... maybe make a 40 man lockout separate from 10s and 25s, but under the same instance zones...kinda if you get what I'm trying to get at
Bring back larger raids yes, definately, This game has turned into a small group MMO. 40 or 72 man would be great, and with that we would get larger guilds instead of 878923 raiding guilds on each server.
You're in a 10man, doing hardmodes: Everyone has to do their job, one or two people die or slack and it makes it much more difficult.
You're in a 25man, doing hardmodes: You can carry some people that don't have the gear/attitude, but not many.
You're in a 40man, doing hardmodes: You might not always have a full group, and if you do it's likely that half of your members are undergeared or slacking.
