Good post. I quoted this part because I felt exactly the same way. Even if I had 1,000,000 plat I still wouldn't have bought soul leech for my epic. I wanted to kill CT for it.
Many, many people have this conception that the raid scene is completely "toxic" because these huge drama posts about FTE sniping and trains get posted in RNF. They get a lot of attention. But for the most part raid encounters are not like that. There probably isn't as much drama or rule breaking as you think. Some encounters will always be messy. Anything in Hate or Fear can involve training, and a lot of it. That's the nature of those zones, and it's usually not on purpose. Aside from this, most engages go smoothly even with both guilds trying their hardest to win.

it only takes a few bad apples to ruin the bunch.
back in the day when I played I remember specifically rogaen stated that pullers in pofear are going to train each other accidentally and that csr would not be involved.
we went up to clear for armor and another guild came up after they had appointed a person to run around with a kite and do nothing but train our pullers because they took it as training in the field was legal.
that leaves a very sour taste in the mouth, and it doesn't take but a couple of experiences like that before you don't even want to try because you know they know they are misinterpreting the rules to get the edge.
competition? please...that's being a dick for dicks sake and there is no need of that but people do it. How is that fun for anyone? and people wonder why the casuals don't want to sit for 30+ hours just to have some BS like that happen, even rarely, once is more than enough to turn most people away from raiding.
