My exact sentiment. I am not familiar with how red works, but everything you speak of concerning blue is how I perceive raiding here.
It's disappointing no doubt, and what I did once I became jaded with the raid scene was create new toons and level them doing things I missed on older toons. Now I do solo and grouping in lower levels, and hope to continue my soloing in higher levels, trying more challenging zones that I never been to.
I personally don't see how the raid scene on blue is fulfilling to the fringe raiders which is probably 90% of the raiders.
The 10% are hardcores that run and organize the raid guilds and as such they are the ones getting the majority of the pixels whether it's their mains or any one of their personal army of alts.
After about 2 months of seeing this process in action I understood raiding on blue wasn't for me. The level of greed astounded me, especially considering the gains are pixels.
I enjoyed reading your experience on red, only because I considered trying that too, but the lack of population has always discouraged me from bothering.
I will just stick to my plan on blue, leveling and grouping for fun, with the goal of soloing high level zones one day.

It's still possible to enjoy SOME raiding on blue as a casual. I just watch guild chat and show up for some of the smaller/quicker raid targets. I absolutely refuse to go for any mobs that require poopsocking. I remember in particular one time several guilds all stacking up at KC while Venril Sathir was in window, all of them congregating there just for a CHANCE at possibly killing him sometime in the next several hours. I avoid those situations like the plague but have still been able to enjoy some more casual raiding.
