So the solution is to be the closest guild socking?

BDA makes an absolutely insightful comment in so few words.
Chest has been superior at thinking about what the other person is going to do to get as close to whatever line we all imagine is drawn and not cross it. Many raiding guilds on P99 have done this in a competitive sphere for so long that instead of hitting a wall, we push the line.
That line is so far gone that if we stopped and looked back at our history of raiding, we would see how far gone we are.
Today the term "player made enforcement" is akin to "uniformly agreeing to break the rules." If no one is enforcing the rules, we will always find a way to break them as long as it benefits us. Why? Because the first guild to do it will benefit. Then we argue and everyone gets on board thinking this is the new raiding world. Then the line gets pushed by a new guild who benefits from being the only one and we argue and come to a new "player made agreement" again.
This system is not successful for a healthy server. It is successful for the advantageous and aggressive guilds who have long since abandoned the idea of self policing.
I humbly request to hearken back to the days when we all knew what raiding was like and GM's had involvement in our lives. This mountain top council needs an arbiter.
As Aaron said in scene II of Titus Andronicus: "Pray to the devils; the gods have given us over."
