Heya all
Quite a simple question for you all, and there may be multiple answers 0.o
In your opinion, what is the best server that has great raiding pugs? I.E. servers that can form a pug in trade and have that pug succeed 95% of the time.
The server I'm on is lame and there are rarely any groups going and I'm looking for a change, the PuG's here only occur at very very high population periods, which often doesn't work for me >_<
Also guilds are out of the question, after 5 years of playing, the best aspect of the game for me is gearing up new level 80's and I dont want to have to app to a guild just to gear up. Hard modes bore me.
On that note, what about these gold runs I've heard a little bit about. My friend at work does gold runs of ToC25 and gets gear through paying gold, and he gets a % of that gold back at the end of the run, often he gets more back... Thats on Spinebreaker, but i'd rather stay away from that realm (was my realm for 3.5 years until I moved)
Simple, but long, question - any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks Wowhead users!

Illidan (US) Horde side is heavily saturated and progressed, so there are almost constantly ICC10/25 pugs going on in trade channel. By 6PM server, it's generally impossible to read what is being said in the trade channel due to the speed in which the chat is moving.
If you're into this, come join us! >.>
I like, but i need more options. I'll start a character there anyway - BElf pally inc Illidan!
Also - I prefer PvE realms, I left Spinebreaker because I got sick of the PvP, but I don't really mind either way ^_^

Auchindoun EU pugs like 8/12 ICC, and insanity every week.
Also, one of the first clear of ICC (as in, 4 bosses, the day ICC released), was done with a pug (with me in it, ofcourse! :O)

Oh, and the loot system you mentioned is called GDKP (Gold-DKP). Essentially, instead of rolling or using normal DKP, you bid gold in an open auction, and the winner hands over the gold to the lootmaster in exchange for the item. At the end of the run, everybody who participated gets an equal share of the pot which has accumulated, thus it is always win-win. You either get gold, and item, or even both. I heard it's very succesful on some realms, while others shun it or have never even heard of it (this's the case with my realm).
wow this sounds so full of win, but i can see it really being abused too....
