Ash, I think you need to give current Head Raid Leadership, Mcfierce, working with Guild Leadership, a chance to set up his policys. I think he is trying to strike the right balance, give him a chance to get things completed. Remember he works a full time job and has a life outside of Redeemed *gasp!* as do others leading and no one is getting paid for their time here, they have volunteered to serve. If once everything is laid out, and you disagree then ok express your concerns.
I am all for progression raiding, I am a sports enthusiast and progression raiding is an awesome sport, and I enjoyed leading a Ulduar progression pug this summer and I am all for striking the right balance of progression raiding in a Christian enviroment. I believe if you read carefully what Angry has said in his postings he is taking the right tac.
To truely progress, and from leading myself, I believe anyone should be doing a mimumum 3000 to 3500 dps consistently on 10 man Ulduar bosses (not trash aoe), if "you" (whoever) is a dps, are you there yet? If your not, others may be carrying you, and you've got your work cut out. Are you (whoever wants to progression raid) studying strats on the Ulduar bosses or are just waiting for a raid leader to give you instructions. The better you know the fights, the better your situational awareness will be and you will live through the fights. Are you coming fully prepared or asking someone to place the food buff down for you cause your cooking/fishing is not high enough, do you have your potions/flasks, and gear gemmed and enchanted. Are you working on getting the right gear if you do not have it yet. If you say you want to participate in progression raiding, and you are not doing these things, others may be carrying you. You do not need anyone to hold your hand to do these things, and you can do them at your own pace but if you really want to be serious about progression raiding they are all a part of it. This is not aimed at Ash, but at anyone wanting to progession raid.
Leadership can only do so much to create an enviroment where progression can occur and I think they are working on striking the right balance and McFierce just took on the job and is new in it. Give him a chance.
Truely for those who wish to progress, it starts with YOU.

Love you asheriah.
