Eastern Time Zone, US is fairly rough to get a PUG on Alliance.
There is an extreme shortage of tanks between 6pm and 9pm. So, tanks run whatever they want. They get all the tank and melee loot they want in a few runs, and quit pugging.
Healers have it a little tougher, and have to be a little open on where they go, but they can usually get a group. Occasionally, they get a drop.
Ranged DPS is highly sought for places that drop tank and melee loot. The bosses often do not drop anything for casters, and if it does, it was probably promised to the healer.
Melee DPS do not PUG. They might roll against the tank, and this is very strictly forbidden. Since reservations are frowned upon, it is much easier to have de facto reservations and preserve your reputation.
