All of this said, on live, at max lvls or near max lvls you only need 6 or so friends to 'beat' the previous expansions. I don't see how impossible it could be to make a few buddies that want to do similair things, there's got to be a least a few thousand people on this planet who don't mind looting +10 earings instead of +100 earings.
On wow i ran pick up groups where I organized (and kicked bad players) to do the previous expansions content using their group finder tool, which is pretty good actuaully. After several runs, it was possible to get a group of people who wanted to run it a few times for vanity items or just because they liked doing the old raid with 3 or 4 people instead of 40. In this way I was able to complete most of the old expansion before the Lizard Lady Queen of the Oceans BFA mini expac.
