masquerade:
I tried Zul'Aman once. It was disorganized and confusing, and I haven't tried raiding since. I'm quite comfortable in my laidback "instance guild." I help my guildies level up with instance runs and bask in the light of their adoration. And I have connections with the best guilds on the server, who have reccomendations as to where to put the kids with the thirst for raiding blood. It works out quite well.

Shandris got a lot more competitive after <Broken> moved to Khargath or whatever. Something ogre-y sounding. Which suits them.

She doesn't have a true berserk rage or anything, so the fight isn't a dps race; discipline was a helluva lot more important than sheer numbers. The first time we took her down in my original raiding guild, we were short 12 people-- but that last bit actually helped. It was just a practice run nobody expected to win, but losing those people pared us down to just our most competent and well-prepared players, which resulted in far less pressure on the healers and only 2 deaths on the fight (1 of which was immediately combat rezzed back up). Honestly, my first guild would have fared really well in BC had we stayed together 'till the expansion hit; the drop from 40 people to 25 people would have suited our number of "A-list" players perfectly. Hell, when we first took down Razorgore (on our 2nd try!), we were also on a short handed practice run (just a bunch of us bored after a  night of clearing MC trash), but since that fight was more about kiting and surviving a war of attrition, we managed to pull it off rather handily.

Yeah I remember near the end of original WoW my guild doing 20 man Onyxias since only a couple people needed stuff and we didn't wanna PuG with a buncha nubs. Man 40-man raids were such a silly idea in retrospect but they were so much fun.

Also  :x Razorgore. Worst fight to be a priest. Man I miss BWL and AQ40. I remember one time we did a 23 mintue Ebonroc haha. Most of our raid got shadowflamed and died cause we were cocky and didn't wear our cloaks and a resto shaman and I kept the tank going for that long just for kicks before we ran out of mana. I think we each had like over a million healing done for that fight alone.

est:
I guess that just like everything else the difficulty was overstated because most guilds are full of people who suck.  My EQ guild found this out when we'd continually do things that people said required X people with say, 2/3 of X people.  It was a lot of fun.

clockworkjames:
Alot of people only suck when they try to do new things, my friend was feral for 78 levels and he was a superb droodtank and solo dps monster, his healing is spot on too most of the time, but when he tries to help with some light AoE or he gets aggro for whatever reason thins go tits up fast. I liked DPS warrior-ing as arms because even if I stole aggro I could take it, I had platemail and good dodge without a shield and would be on top of the DPS tree alot but as a tank there is now sooo much to learn since lv 55. Sunder is replaced by devistate, remember shouts and that buff you put on the person 2nd in threat generation to charge taunt when they get hit and steal 10% of their threat, sword and board proccing means SHIELD SLAM NOW! When to block, when to interrupt with stun, when to stun mob with shockwave, when to spell reflect... That's about all I care about now. It takes some getting used to and yes, a fewdays back I was a sucky tank because of all the excellent new shit I did not understand.

That reminds me, I wish people would READ AND UNDERSTAND WHAT ALL THEIR SKILLS ACTUALLY DO.
