For one, there are always new members that need things. And two, the core leadership is still there, loves the competition, and is gearing up yet another alt. Alts keep things fresh.
Where's the competition?

In the last 2 repops Taken, Divinity, IB, FE, and BDA I think all at least attempted a boss mobs. FE downed the last 2 Traks. There is competition.

Everyone involved in making the endgame of this server what it is, ask yourselves this: If you learned that you had only 24 hours to live, would you spend that time poopsocking raid targets? And would you feel good about how you spent the last year (or 3) of your life? There is more to this world than fighting for dragon loot and it's an absolute tragedy to see the miracle of the human mind wasted in this way.
Sadly this IS probably a lot of their lives and if the plug ever got pulled they would need to be on suicide watch.

I you want it, take it.

If you can't, wait till they're done with it.

This argument is dumb for 2 reasons:

1.) There is no way to compete at this point in the game. All they need is 20 people to log on any of the toons parked at all of the raid mobs. If you think it can be done, I'd like to see you find a group of raiders who will park their mains at any raid mob, wait for the batphone and see who can log on faster at any time of day and not get burned out by it.

2.) They'll never be done with it because they'll always be taking in new apps from the people who are too fed up trying to fight against them because of #1 or just flat out buying those toons and gearing them to park at more mobs.

You think its really that bad to have people camped out at raid mobs and try to throw the javelin first?

3 warriors, 5-6 rogues, 4-5 clerics.

Definitely as hard as Somalia going at the US.

What a notably dramatic and ridiculous comparison.

I recall people complaining about IB's reign of dominance. The difference is, while they were complaining they kept at it and eventually won the war of attritition.

1) I'm amazed they aren't burned out by it, I would be.

2) Again, the position they earned.

You guys complaining wouldn't have been able to contest IB either. They were able to, whether it was at the end of their reign or whatever.. that can stay out of this. But at no point could the people complaining have beaten IB at this either.

It's not an argument, I'm stating a fact that reflects reality. You don't like it, if I was you I wouldn't either. That's life pal. Not everyone gets to be #1, and #1 doesn't always like to share. Further before they were #1, no one really shared with them either.

How would you like a few months or a year after your guild beat TMO, they all quit (for whatever reason) that some other group came along with half or a quarter of the time investment and asked for a calendar? Easy to say you'd support it and I don't think you or your leadership would given what it would take to beat them.
