(Notes from my experience from the server I play on)
Before GS became such a big deal, raid leaders (for pugs) required people to have the achievement for the raid instance. If you didn't have it, you didn't get to go (unless they were desperate). This made it really hard to gear up alts unless you were in a good guild. Today, the situation is abit different. They normally ask for the achievement
or
GearScore. Which means that if you either have the gear or have done it before you get a chance to go.
You can cheat both of those, ofc, by being carried to get the achievement or by getting junk gear with high GearScore, but that isn't that big of a deal, imo.
Why? Because if it's a longer raid (like icc/toc), the raid leader will see my "skills" after the first bossfight and can kick me if he so chooses. If it's a one-boss fight, there are two possible outcomes. Either we wipe and the raid leader will get the chance to kick the underperformers or we kill the boss and nobody cares about who did what.
