		<description><![CDATA[While I played in Vanilla, I never got into a guild or had a chance to do anything group wise beyond running WC a few times - back when Barrens chat was famous!  I didn&#039;t get into raiding until WotLK when I found an actual raiding guild and played with a couple people I knew from the Real World.

Back then we were a pretty big guild, and were allied with a couple other largish guilds - to the point we could field a couple combined 25 Naxx runs.  And I remember the pain of organizing the schedule for that...  We also ran the old 40s on occasion, mostly because only a handful had ever done them.  That was a nightmare!  Even grossly overgeared, AQ40 was a pain.

I guess my primary point is, with LFR doing all the hard work of scheduling and coordinating; there&#039;s no reason it couldn&#039;t be used to manage 40 man raids.  Bring back the drama of the uber raid without the heartache of putting it together.

10 and 25 man raids should be primarily guild oriented.  Tune the LFR to 40 man, make the mechanics even more different than the current LFR is the normal and give players more options to get gear, see content, learn fights and have fun.  That&#039;d be epic, in my book.]]></description>
