You know, I wonder if you could do a casual-raiding guild where you raided IC...it would be difficult, but I imagine not impossible...hm...

I know plenty of people who do that. It's a little wonky with going back in weekly to kill bosses on the way to the end boss (a little easier when dealing with undead, elementals, or even demons!), but usually you can save the new RP for the newer content, or for new folks filling in spots. Or make believe it's new enemies, etc. Lots of ways to cover it.

I right now am saying IC that our raid is helping in the defense of Wyrmrest Temple during the Twilight Assault. Our group is casual, and slow (real life stuff hasn't helped much; there were breaks over the holidays) and we only do DS one night a week--the other is still Firelands to make legendaries and gear alts--but we're trucking along well enough. We have fun with light, silly RP before and during raid, some after, and through the rest of the week, both storyline stuff we make up, or day to day things, or server social events (participating and creating), and even in IC chat channels to keep in touch while farming or questing solo.
