Haven't played WoW in a long time, but doesn't this expansion seem kind of lackluster?
No new Race nor Class. In Pandaria there were both, however I hate the fact that we've got a neutral race, seeing Pandas fight Pandas of a different alliance on the battlefield, seem so stupid.
IMO they should've made Pandas horde and give alliance like Centaurs or smth.

So as everyone keeps asking and no one is making.....

For both EU and NA, just write down your battle tag if you want people to play with.

Remember this is for Warlords of Draenor specifically, not just Panda land, only post if you will be getting WoD

Three things i need; 1. Battletag 2. Faction 3. NA/EU

With Cross Realm now all you need to be is on a server and be either Horde or Alliance and you can group with anybody in the game

Yes, arbitrary gear checks, certain logistical problems, and to a minor extent more advanced mods, easier and faster gearing, and PTR testing (very insignificant, but still saves a few hours for top guilds, as I've posted previously) are all factors as to why raids *seem* easier post-TBC to some people.

However, the biggest difference from my observations throughout these years is that the general skill level and comfort that people have with the game have increased significantly. People have just gotten much better at the game overall, and it's as simple as that. In my hardcore days back in TBC (I was in a world top 100 guild during Tier 4 and Tier 5 content, then in a decently well-progressing guild for T6 and Sunwell), I was the best rogue and one of the best tanks in my guilds, and compared to now, where I'm just a casual player who occasionally steps foot in some flex and normal raids, I was terrible. The people I played with also weren't that good, even compared to some randoms in flex that I play with nowadays. At least to me, the difference is so massive that it cannot be overstated. Even just watching some twitch streams and youtube videos, I can also tell the difference. This is even more apparent in PvP, but that's another story.

Do you think technology has helped as well?
Go back to doing 40man raids in Vanilla, with early 2000 computers on maybe dial up still connections or even just broadband low speed is going to have effect on many thing. Ping for a start, then the low FPS. Add into the fact needing voice comms of 40 other people its going to be pretty hectic!
Now a days everyone has a 1mb connection at least, most people are playing with 30FPS + which is fine and don't struggle with lag.
The casuals have rigs that are set up for high end gaming let alone just WoW xD

So along with the players getting better, the players are also getting the perfect experience on top of it? Add into the fact that people can support the super easy UIs and the Addons that have been created to help show things on the screen clearer it all adds up to more people being able to hit the high end raid scale. As well as the high end players also getting these changes to make them EVEN better.

Do you think that has helped too?
