I also played on a PvP server, so people knew more about their class. We did RZ in tactics with an enemy guild zoning in selo-speeded, invulnerable SKs to Death Touch our tanks. It could also be that being on a PvP server my groups were pretty much guild only.

I'm pretty sure both can be true for both games. It isn't terribly hard to make it to max level on EQ or WoW (pre-expansions). Some people learn when they level and some don't. EQ doesn't have some magical skill barrier that keeps crappy players from reaching max level.

I remember way more people in WoW doing everything they could to crunch numbers, maximize dps thru rotations, and discover which items meshed well with certain builds. I was also in a raiding guild in WoW(pre expansions) and we got up to a few bosses into Naxx. (so it's all relative).
