However, I have read many unsavory things about the P1999 raid scene on these forums. From all all accounts its seems like Lord of the Flies where a lot guilds are competing for a few raid targets. Apparently you need to have a "bat phone" and be ready to log on your character at a moments notice. I also hear that many guilds have raiding targets and zones on lockdown and sell looting rights to the highest bidder. After all of this, I'm honestly wondering if it's worth it to join a guild.

You've read the threads. Those are the people you'll either be rubbing elbows with or butting heads against. If they seem like a fun group on the forums, you're probably deranged enough to enjoy their company in game.
