That's a raid instance. While I've had a lot of good luck getting PUG
5mans for the daily heroic, it looks like end-game PUG raids are a
different matter. The few I've been on haven't been that successful,
and a bad one can lock you out of the that raid for a week.
For a while, I was on the call list for a raiding guild as a stand-in
healer, but they now have a couple of Holy Pallies of their own, and
it's been made clear they are unlikely to need my services in future.
These weren't PUGs, but rather a raid guild filling in a couple of
empty slots. I enjoyed that, and pulled my weight, but it doesn't look
like it will occur again soon.
I've considered moving to a raiding guild, but I don't have a regular
schedule. Unlike most raiders, I'm mature, married to a non-gamer,
have kids, a house, and a regular job. While I play almost every
night, I can't *reliably* clear a 3 hour slot 2-3 times a week, the
minimum which 'casual' raiding guilds seem to require; too many other
parts of my life can intervene.
I'm looking for suggestions on how I might handle this. It could well
be that I'm simply SOL,
in which case I'm going to be pretty bored until the next expansion
comes.

A slight variation on words from a song by Poison
"Tis better to lost at raids than never to raid at all"
Of course this does not apply to people who do not want to raid.
Good luck and give your wife and kids a hug for letting you have such
a fanatastic pastime on WoW!
