This article is spot on.

I think the reputation point is the true problem behind dungeons today.

Before LFD I would run pugs, meet people and often chat to those who shone, add them to my friends list and invite them when I needed a decent Tank/healer/DPS for future runs.

LFD took that away. Nobody seems to care anymore how well they, or anyone else, play - they'll just slide of to their other realm to vanish. Theres no point making relationships with good players - or noting bad ones.

Unfortunately LFD has removed a vital part of the community on a realm level by stopping players wanting to interact on each other.

I think the LFD would work much better by working on realms - not battlegroups. Maybe having that reputation to regain for all classes would make pugs a nicer place, and drive players back to it.
