The kids that started with WoW and DAoC just won't ever understand the need for community, teamwork and, for lack of better term: Not pooping in your own backyard.
I take it you never played DAoC because DAoC very much understood the need for community. How many times in EQ did you have Guild Alliances get together to work to protect your frontier. I played on DAoC Bors and our community was and still is very strong.

Hell we still have the private server board we all used instead of VN's board up and running with probably 200+ people posting on it to this day. 200+ people posting on a board for a game that's almost 10yrs old. And it's not 1-2 posts a day, I would say the number of posts there is about 5x more than on this forum daily.

Do not lump DAoC in with WoW. The DAoC community is/was right up there with UO, EQ and AC's community.
