This stigma about admitting that a video game requires skill to be good at is silly. The ability to perform given actions within a video game is patently a skill:
skill
/skil/
Learn to pronounce
noun
the ability to do something well; expertise.
You even spell out how to improve at eq, which is the same way you improve at literally anything, but claim eq takes no skill.
Why are some long time players awful if all it takes is time investment? Why are some new players very effective if they haven't put the time in? Your claim is clearly false.

I don't know what you mean by being good or bad at EQ. How do you decide if someone is good? By the gear they have? Getting great gear is simply a matter of joining one of the top guilds and attending as many raids as possible, while performing some very basic tasks such as pressing autoattack, complete healing, or maybe a couple buff buttons for 97% of the people.
Chess takes skill. Boxing takes skill. Painting takes skill. EQ takes knowledge of the basic mechanics and inordinate amounts of time invested.
