I still run a random daily herioc on both my ICC geared Rogue and ICC geared Hunter.
2 Frosties, some triumphs and decent gold for the time spent.
I run my JC, Cooking dailies while in the que.
Both toons have GS north of 6k.
My experiences are largely good to excellent runs, with the occasional phail group.
I keep ToT or MS on the tank, every cooldown, and make sure I save ToT or MS for boss fights,
skipping the last mob before the boss so I will have it.
Even undergeared tanks hold threat with no problems.
The mobs fall quickly to the ICC geared buzz saw.
HoR is the last phail group I was in, the heals just could not keep the tank alive,
apologized and dropped the group.
Once we got a new healer in, every thing went very smoothly.

Moonkins don't tend to move into melee range, what happens is melee range moves into moonkins.
On topic though, they seem about as bad as always. You could just be having the LFD equivalent of a dry spell. It's bound to happen occasionally.

Got into a group a couple of days ago with a new pally tank (I'm DPS). I said 'new to tanking, eh?'. They said 'Yeah'. I said 'Don't worry, just hold aggro and we'll do the rest'. The random went extremely smoothly and everyone was congrats to the new tank at the end.
Morale of the story - be nice to others and treat them as you would like to be treated - will lead to a more rewarding experience.
Cheers.

I've noticed nothing different. Good nad bad runs. Random is random and the RNG for random dungeons is even more so because of the human factor.

:/ I have the same problem, every low level (15-60/70ish) group I get into on an alt, seems to have someone from Hakkar which is the ninja-realm in my Battle-Group..

I attribute any decline in trying to "senioritis" or in this case "expansionitis." More people stop caring as much the closer their attempts come to obsolete.

I just recently (the other day) started playing my prot pally again. He is t9/emblem geared so heroics arent a problem obviously. When I get @#$%^ing DPSers who @#$%^ at a fresh 80 I tell them to cool it or they will be waiting in queue for a new grp, not me leaving and bailing on the other innocent people. Some will ^&*!@ at me for no reasons and they usually get kicked, the rest will usually bite their tongue and shut the hell up. Since I plan to run heroics for a while longer to get both the dps and healing t9 set I want things to go nice and smoothly, I dont tolerate stupid. I usually dont run into fresh 80s who are asses, they just wanna do the instance and get their emblems and get geared up, if they are slacking i'll let them know. I will rarely kick a fresh 80.

I have noticed that tanking and healing had dropped due to dps toons respecing to tank or heals to get their emblems faster.

I've noticed the following:
I get more bad groups when I use the Random Dungeon Finder.
... but you know why?
Because I get more groups when I use the Random Dungeon Finder.
I believe the % of bad to good is the same as it was when I was doing pug runs before the tool came out, I just have more groups to run with now, so I'm seeing a proportionate amount of bad ones.

I've had a string of bad luck lately with Heroic OK. I just started running heroics a few days ago, but I've gotten at least 5 groups for H-OK, and every group has disbanded around the first boss. Most of the time it's due to the tank thinking that if they go to the furthest group of mobs from the group, that they won't aggro any patrols, at all. And those damn casters just destroy us. So of course the tank blames the DPS or whatever.
However, one good thing is now that I'm 80, I've been getting more groups. And aside from the groups for H-OK, it's been smooth.
