In my opinion, I would consider it to be within the spirit of the anti-poopsock rules and competition to be allowed to engage the target provided you port out and back into the zone (in Hate for example). Yes, since you have a raid force already on line you have a slight advantage over others but that's hardly against the spirit or intent of the rules.
Really, the idea is to have essentially even starting ground for the targets which is generally held as being at least one zone away. (at the zone line into the zone or 1 port away (into Hate or Sky Fire for example)). If members of a guild are in the zone with a FFA target during a simulated re-pop, they should exit the zone and then re-enter (i.e. players in KC and a simulated re-pop fires off with a FFA VS up next.. They should haul ass to the zone line, exit and head back in.)
This I think would be acceptable.. The staff doesn't want to punish players and guilds for playing the game normally and so I don't think that this approach would be problematic.
