Of course everybody wants the best gear.  No doubt.  But again.  I guess 
a good majority of the players who doesnt raid occasionally are fine 
with or at least has accepted their position as they prolly never will 
be able to get their hands on raid items due to real life issues or just 
simply "I enjoy killing a mob and do a quest now and then".
In my guild we have a handful of real-life couples where the other part 
just play the game for an hour or two now a few times a week.

It all started in wotlk after winning Wintergrasp.  We got access to the 
small pewpew raid where we could win set bonus gear. :)
I cant talk about Cata as I skipped this expansion completely.

I imagine most so-called elitist whiners arent that old anyway.  Some 
other just have silly personalities.  So I couldnt care less about them. 
  And dont forget whiners are able to "fill a room" with their negative 
attitude and bad karma despite they are a waste minority.
