IB vs DA wasn't fun for anyone. It was more a posing contest over who was going to Mage farm plane of sky and the RnF wasn't that fruitful either.

Pre-Sky DA vs IB was pretty dope. Raid rules were much less restrictive, guild sizes were smaller and much more mobile, and a lot of gimmicky strategies that have been used here over the years hadn't been considered yet. As brutal as it could be, I actually made a ton of friends from both guilds during those 15 man AFK claiming days. Would have like 60 people sitting inside the PoF fire wall waiting for shit to spawn and jus BSing with each other. Also the competition seemed much closer. As fun as FE vs TMO could be, TMO destroyed us for those first few months. I got the first FE bard epic and think I had been to 30+ trak raids before we a) got the kill and b) guts dropped. We probably watched them kill 50+ VP dragons before we got that first druushk kill. IB usually beat up on DA, but even then DA was usually getting 1 or 2 mobs out of 6 weekly.
Sky was absolutely horrible though. So many players burned out up there in the first 3 months after it was released.
TR vs DA/TMO was cool too. DA/TMO had the numbers, but a lot of their good players like Daltheb and Baub had switched to TR, so it was a lot of 60-70 man DA/TMO zergs vs TR forces that were half the size, but much better geared and prepared. People always claim their competition zergs while they dont, but TR vs DA/TMO was one of the few times it was almost always true. Was cool to see that play out.
