As an early BB raider, I recall everyone looking up to Veeshan's FoH as the gold standard for raiding guilds, and lots also saw them as kinda nuts. BB was a great server for the community but IMO it took a while for true poopsock raiding to take hold in the form of Club Fu, even AO/RoV others were frequently cooperative and would be considered pretty casual by current standards. Not a ding, people just hadn't really developed the raiding paradigm. We were killing dragons with crap gear in the upper 40s.

Since I didn't start playing until Velious (and didn't start raiding until Luclin) I can't really speak to before then, so that's entirely possible. What I do know is by the time I understood raiding, Club Fu most definitely was serious about it, and I say this having been in the same room with many of them when they raided.
However, I 100% agree that people on Bristlebane weren't all assholes to each other. For instance there was a Club Fu Warrior named Meriadoc (I
think he was an officer?) who would not only occasionally help AO, but also smaller guilds like Southern Lights, not to mention complete strangers. And he did it
constantly.
Now, try imagining (say) a member of Aftermath both fighting with and giving tactical advice to Tempest (or Tempest even letting an Aftermath member join them on a raid) for even a single raid mob, let alone a whole bunch of them.
Bristlebane Pride!
