The argument you have to earn it yourself and that you want others to do the same is ridiculous. Look at this situation if it was in real life.

You have a job. You work in an office, or in a factory, or whatever. After your work day of 8 hours (or so), you go to the super market on the way home to grab some food. This trip takes about 30 minutes. When you park, suddenly some crazy ass hippies ambush you and yelling how you aren't earning your food and that you have to spend the time to farm and hunt it yourself.

If they want to live on a farm and spend ALL their time just growing food to eat, thats fine and its their way of life. But its ridiculous to try and push their niche way of life n the vast majority of people.

Just because they're not spending 72 hours at a camp, doesn't mean they're not "earning" it. They've earned it (via paying plat for LR) by earning money doing something else. Its not like they just started the game and on their level 1 get loot rights.

The ALS playstyle is fine, but dont try to push that onto other players. I don't even like the MQ economy in general (shoot, I dont even get JBoots, I just get sow pots or traveler's boots on my chars) cause it breeds toxicity, but fair is fair in a buyer / seller market.
Why are you playing everquest if you treat it like a job? I feel that completely defeats the purpose of a video game.
