The other solution would be to do a daily PF for alliance raid if you want like-minded individuals who want a fun, challenging experience in alliance raid.
Poking a monster for 2 minutes with barely anything happening around makes someone feel powerful? You do you, I guess, but I feel like I'm gonna fall asleep when nothing poses any threat or challenge in a fight.

I said this before but why exactly should players do SE's job for them? We pay for their game, it's on them to keep content fun and relevant to both old and new players.
