The cheers that blew up the vent servers.
The many chat messages that flooded everything from Guild Chat to General Chat.
It may sound funny, but downing a new raid boss for the first time was a wave of excitement for many guilds. To some, it meant they were progressing as a whole. Raid-level bosses were not designed to be easy. They were designed to require tight guild coordination and teamwork. Without those, you were doomed to fail. Now, getting it right was the main obstacle to getting down that raid boss. That meant wiping for hours on end. Until everyone got it down right and pulled through for the last attempt.
Wiping wasn't a bad thing. It shouldn't be one either. Sure, it's frustrating, but the repair bills don't matter. Gold is plentiful in the World of Warcraft, even more than ever. Instead of giving it up or calling it quits next time, focus on what the raid is doing wrong, and do things to improve it. Check your positioning/raid balance. Check if you're properly itemized for the encounter. Make sure your tanks are properly equipped and are using their abilities accordingly. Make sure your healers are being efficient with their mana. If damage dealers constantly die to avoidable battle elements you may want to consider going one-on-one with them to rectify the situation.
Please don't call an encounter hard or un-doable. If anything, consider your playstyle and improve on what needs improving.
