In plain simple mathematical and probabilistic terms, the more people you can help clear the gated content, the larger the pool of players you can draw from when tackling newer content, so it will be easier to get groups and statics. It requires taking a longer view and be willing to be more patient for the return on investment. This is a strategy that can help all the players together.
    News flash. People don't care, and way to miss the entire point of my post once again and to try and nitpick the small stuff that didn't matter at all. You completely fail to acknowledge that a persons time is there own and you're simply acting entitled to expect them to use it the way you want them to. You completely ignore everything that actually refuted what you believe and you seem to honestly think you're debating the topic. You're not.

    Here's the skinny kid. I have an FC with well over 100 active members. If you aren't on that member list then I don't care about you. You don't exist. Everything you said is in my self interest to do I do for my FC and my FC only and I do therefore cultivate an effective pool of players and friends to help me complete content. Our FC members frequently get the wins they've been working on since we'll see them struggling to learn a fight over the course of a few days and then a few of us will team up and make that win happen. We invest our time internally to make a better more effective guild and we get people their wins all the time. The game has too many people and I have too little time to care about every single person so I limit my dealings to my FC, and others are going to do the same. There is zero reason to expect players to white knight for every downtrodden player on their server. It's unrealistic to expect it of them as well. If players want to complete content more often maybe they should stop trying to appease the entire server as you suggest and start building a better guild like I did. An investment spread too broadly will return nothing of value.

    Also, needs more deal with it. People won't play the way you want them to and you need to accept that.
