Here is an example of how you can be red and still make friends. Last night I went to solo in unrest. A paly was there and he asked me "sow pls?" I said sure, right after we fight.
I help him finish the mob he is on as I am not really one to kill someone engaged if I don't consider him an enemy. But I don't wait for him to med.
He kicks my ass but doesn't finish me cause he wants sow then we move on.
To me that's 100% red. To not have anyone to group with to exp or allies to take raid targets from the great blue Zerg might be hardcore but to me at least pretty stupid.
Given the mechanics of EQ I don't see any way to be that hardcore.
