Where's the fun in raiding?

Main reason this happens is because of leap frogging. If Guild A pulls mob #1, then guild B pulls #2, then A pulls #3, and then B pulls #4 and then guild A pulls #5, what happens?

Guild B swoops in and solo pulls the boss and splits it from that final trash mob with ease. So, really, it is the natural way to deal with raid mob and dungeon clears when FTE and variance are part of the system.

Likewise, if one guild is obviously going to clear, what use is there pulling anything? Wait until they've cleared most of the trash and then snipe the FTE on the raid mob. Saves your raid a lot of hassle and gets you the more interesting boss and his extremely shiny shinies.
