Personally I do not think there is a problem. If I'm not going to put in as much time and effort as the bigger raid guilds I don't think I deserve the same loot. This game isnt based around awarding everyone with equal chances and catering to your real life schedule. If you have a steady job that prevents you from putting in the amount of time and effort as the bigger guilds then unfortunately you will fail when competing with them. There is nothing wrong with that. If you are a causal raid guild then there is nothing wrong with jumping in sky/hate/fear and raiding like they do already.
Simulated repops however I think are a great idea (as long as they are not too frequent) and is a way to allow some casual guilds to get some targets while still awarding the effort and time commitment put in from the bigger guilds who take the normal spawns.

This argument is flawed. Since when do casual guilds not put in the same time and effort? Casual guilds have to work harder, the players stay up little past than what they should for work and what not. Time invested does not mean better rewards on P1999 my friend. Also the game is 14 yrs old! Most of you guys were not even working then, just young guns playing video games for fun and had all the time. Why should one particular force be better just because they have no life?
So again your argument is flawed. Casual players show up, we raid and try to as best we can. The time investment = rewards argument is just stupid for P1999. Since most people can just buy whatever they want from EC and not ever raid. It's said how RMT has changed the dynamics.
Another point to say is classic EQ did not stay in classic EQ Kunark very long. So as expansions came out it opened up room for people. RMT was non existent really except account sales occasionally on eBay, but people just didn't have 100's thousands of plats to buy countless end game things to gear toons and avoid raiding. You actually had to raid and do quests to get gear. Velious was out before Kunark got really locked down for most guilds, so you had people still needing Kunark while doing Velious.
