Maybe my memories of Muru are rose colored, but it seems like even then, each week was a little better than the last. Abe will probably disagree, but I don't feel that we have made any progress at all on this fight in months. If anything, we've slid backwards. I remember a couple months ago when we had a night where nearly every single attempt got us into P2. Now half our wipes or more are in P1.
This is a part of the reason behind my absenteeism. At this point (I don't think this comes as a big surprise, if its a surprise at all) I am more or less finished with "progression" until Cataclysm... at which point if WLPH hasn't self destructed, I will return to raiding. Its simply too late into the expansion (or rather, the given content) for me to truthfully want to put forth the amount of time and dedication required. I took a long hard look at the current state of the guild, my faith in its raiders and my own dedication this late into the content. The end result was coming to the realization I am not willing to make the sacrifices required for progression raiding, again, this late into the content.
Coping out on Ruby Sanctum on its first night of release, in favor of focusing on six month old content, sealed the decision for me.
I am by no means advocating others quit or take a break... but what I would like others to take from this rant is simply the following:
If you aren't sure you have the drive and desire (in some cases here, the skill) to complete this fight... You don't. If you have a doubt, you had better decide whether or not you are capable of stepping up your game and bringing the level of skill and focus required for the content. You wont be doing any favors if you're coming in half-assed, just because other people want to kill a boss.
Edit: On that note, I am always willing to assist if I am available. I have no intention of abandoning the guild and should my presence assist the raid, I am still willing to provide said presence. (Just clearly, not as often as I had months ago).
Edit2: But seriously. Gear my alts. Wash my balls. Love me long time. I'm the motherfucking TYYYYYYRUL.
