and after 1 wipe everyone will just leave the raid group and i just wasted my time when i could have done something else more productive , not like gaming is productive but i don't have all day playing and things like this will just ruin it for casual players like me.
Completely wrong way of playing WoW.

First of all, if you play for gear...you are doomed to not like it...if you do Raids because you enjoy it then you'll love it.

And second...if the people leaves the raid group after 1 wipe...what kind of people is that? 1-2 hours to prepare a team is way excesive...it takes half hour at most with organized people/guild. And raiding is time consuming obviously...but you can still enjoy it if you play let's say...2 hours a day, you can always get someone else to fill your spot when you leave.

People that only do raids for gear usually rages and QQ when they don't get an item...and cause drama. If you manage to find a guild of mature people that doesn't mind passing for an item even if they need it...i guarantee you'll have much more fun. This comes from someone who was by far at the top raiding guild on my server back when i played...and we played like 4h a day 4 days a week (not friday, saturday, sunday).

Also, you don't need 100 random players/classes on the same guild, a small guild is easier to coordine and organize...you need like 4 players of each class at most with a similar playtime and you are ready to progress on raids. The key to make raiding progress comes mainly on gearing up people...having different people with a few good items is useless if all are bad geared, for example tanks...one of them should get geared up first (the most active and better player usually) and then the rest will roll for their items eventually.
