I used to run my own raid guild in Wrath - the most fun and stressful times.. it just became too much for me with having a family to take care of, but lfr is perfect for me because I can drop in and out without messing anyone around. I'm fine with the item level being lower than higher raid difficulties, and besides we will be able to acquire mythic items from questing soon enough.. sure they will be group quests but still.

I'm happy to take something rather than nothing at all - tourist mode suits me.
