i dunno what kind of endgame you were involved in, with what kind of guilds- but in my guilds pushing for server firsts people using healbot were the exception... not the rule.

communities like elitistjerks sneer at stuff like that for a reason.

(that reason primarily being that holy paladins tend to use healbot more than any other class, and holy paladins are already completely faceroll... but i digress)
