My experience has been along the same lines.  People are usually pretty 
nice in random lfgs.  It's *starting* to feel a bit like wrath again... 
  i go through entire instances without having to speak to anyone other 
than a "hi" and the beginning and a "ty for run - awesome group" at the 
end, which everyone usually replies in similar while trying to perfect 
my rotations and timing...maximize my dps, etc while making adjustments 
you just work anywhere else, whithout having to worry about surviving. 
Occasionally you get the stray tank /heal combos that just don't work, 
and thats the only time I find now that there's a problem.
