Marrowgar weekly is annoying cuz I can't get groups on naxx geared alts without a fair bit of luck.

if they want to attempt an actual run then i can see that, if the group is just for marrowgar though... people are dumb
Yeah, I dont want to waste time doing just one boss in ICC.
While I'll grant that I am, by sheer coincidence, on one of the most progressed servers, that's still not the point. If you've got people in T9 badge gear and a handful of random other items from Frozen Halls Heroics, you should be able to take down Marrowgar in 10 man. In 25, it might get a little more sketchy, but I've been in plenty of PUGs since Icecrown opened that have been able to pull it off. Anything further in ICC, I'll grant you, but Marrowgar is a gimme fight. It's not even Northrend Beasts, which actually pose a bit of challenge even now.
HoR HC should not be included in the random daily HC list, period.
It simply doesn't have anything to do with a random daily, whose sole purpose these days is to collect Frosties or extra Triumph. It's a difficult instance, which is challenging, that becomes hell when you go with 4 random guys with no communication, different gear levels and skills.
Right now, it's like losing the lottery and nothing else. They got Nexus, you got HoR.
Limited attempts are an excellent idea:

We don't use alts either so inc short week ^_^
Sounds like that's what happens when you raid with douchebags.
Why is that thread locked lol
Lol, they moved it to the customer support forums apparently:

That issue isn't necessarily specific to limited attempts though. I know back in BC on my realm no one had SWP cleared. This was a week or two before WotLK I think and so 3.0 was out and nerfed everything. The top guild at the time had finally gotten M'uru down so they were going to work on Kil'jaeden, but there was some guild drama, someone got kicked and then that person went in with 5-10 resident server trolls and sat in the raid, making it impossible to get a full 25-person raid for Kil'jaeden in the place. They sat in it all night long too, heh.
yay random queue pops H.CoS and 3 people immediately leave. Rather than pass leader, the fourth guy fake-DCs, forcing me to eat an 11 minute dungeon CD.
That wasn't the impression I got from your initial comment. I'm picky about joining ICC on my main regardless, I just get extra picky when Marrowgar is the weekly, but you made it sound like PUGs on your server are still wiping to Patchwerk.
Complaint of my own: fuck Old Kingdom. I've been sent there over a dozen times in the past two days. Thrice in a row now I have insta-quit because I am sick to death of it. Blizzard needs to fix this damned system so that it actually does it claims to do. I have five or six instances that aren't presently locked right now, for example, but, nope, send me to Old Kingdom again or, lacking that, Halls of Stone or Drak'tharon Keep.
To be honest, we wont see a 25M LK Normal kill for another 3 weeks or so. Top it off with never seeing a Heroic LK kill in either format. I mean, the only guild that did tribute to insanity needed a full 25 man raid of 264 geared people to do it =(.
If I were to get 9 random people, I'd doubt we'd make it past saurfang. I still see 95% of the playerbase on our server with sub 5k DPS. I'd rather just not waste time in there when I know I can complete all the content. If I go in to raid, I expect to clear almost everything.
Sixteen motherfucking times I have been sent to Old Kingdom today. SIXTEEN. Out of about 26 or 27 queues. The last ten in a row have been Old Kingdom and I have insta-quit every goddamned one of them. I need a nominal amount of Emblems to be done what I was doing (collecting PvP shit), but I refuse to continue doing Old Kingdom over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. No, fuck you, Blizzard. There are sixteen motherfucking heroic 80 instances, send me to another one. Send me to Halls of Reflection with some 3k GS mouthbreathers, at least then there'll be an excuse for wiping on trash.
I actually don't mind Old Kingdom anymore. Used to hate it back in the day, because no one stuns the damn spellflingers and I'd die from the big shadow blast + melee. Nowadays I have the HP to absorb it and DPS is good enough to faceroll everything. Skip first boss, kill the prince, skip the rest, go right to end and collect my frosts. It's quicker than Nexus or VH. If you still need triumphs though... yeah forget that.
On that note, fuck Halls of Stone and the 5 minute gauntlet.
