The reason for this is that it is hypocritical. All people are inherently selfish and it's nothing "evil" about it. All animals are instinctively pushed to survive first and second to help those around them.
I know we're going deep into sociology here but I think it's the only way to express what I feel about this for guilds. Guilds should expect good teamwork, but they should not fool themselves people aren't inherently selfish.
We don't help a team to help a team. We help a team to help ourselves because we are in that team. That's not "evil" or anything, it's how people operate.
