the thing about grouping these days is for alot of the cases it is boring as hell.
no one wants to chat. you know socialize with others in the group. its all go go go kill kill kill level level level get shiney get...well i think you got it...

the way most groups go you mite as well just be with some computer controlled bots. so many just group up..get their shiney or finish quest and they off.. slam bamm thank you mamm.

everyone is in such a hurry these days. must get to 80 in 5 days(or what ever top level is) then complain on the games forums how bored you are.

also i think alot(me anyway) just cant play like they used to(RL issues)
I cant just sit playing for 10hrs+ straight anymore. i may be logged in for 5hrs but probably only actively play for 2hrs..the rest i am afk
most groups would get peeved if someone kept going afk every 20min for 5+ min at a time.

then there is the lie that soloers want and have it easy if they want a challenge they need to group. when in fact its the other way around. Exp in groups fly by. things are easier to do. a soloer doing same content takes much longer or has to green/grey out the content. getting to 80 solo is a challenge. grouping is easy mode.
