The vast majority of the player base would abide by it, and even then, if a group was missing 2-3 people that would be there for an average 'take down attempt', an incoming group would standby and wait to see if guild A killed it, wiped, or didn't have the intent of killing it.

Then again, most of Quellious was also nice enough to talk to each other about the intent of a raid in a zone, and see to some sort of agreement. When I was working on my rogue's epic, our guild zoned into Kedge at the same time as another, but instead of racing to the end for the robe I needed and hoped we killed him first, our guilds joined forces to kill him. They had a bard that needed the spine, I needed the robe. A win for all sides.

Would that we could live in a more perfect world, eh?

This is how Tunare was for the most part. It sounds like alot of you grew up on very immature and greedy servers. Tunare, just had a mutual unwritten law, first to be in zone clearing with a force had claim, simple as that. I only recall 1 leapfrog moment with Ssra Emp and a GM just came and checked logs of who tagged the first trash to lay claim.
