Thanks, I will keep this in mind, is there a place to read about the "trash mobs", i never raided at all so i dunno what a trash mob is vs a loot pinata (lol love the term btw)

The loot pinatas are the dragons on variance that spawn once a week and result in these threads of people arguing about the rules in killing those mobs. A small fraction of the population go to idiotic lengths to get these mobs, keep others from getting these mobs and selling the exclusiveness of these mobs as some sort of achievement worthy of praise or pride or something. They'll tell you it takes skill to get these mobs when really it just takes 40 hours a week and a good hemorrhoid cream.
The trash mobs are the ones that spawn more frequently (maybe 2-3 times a week, once a day or 3 times a day or just with zone repops) or even 7 day dragons that the top guilds don't actively pursue, that require far less time investment to get, involve significantly less drama and still drop upgrades for 95% of the population. Most sane people on this server can still get upgrades from a planar clear, for instance and planar clears can be scheduled or impromptu. Some epic quests can fall in this category and dungeons like Siren's Grotto, Velk's Lab, Chardok, etc. Arguably, a group of well geared 60's can do a lot of this fringe stuff and have it technically not be a raid, but that doesn't mean a guild can't make a raid of them either.
