You guys keep using other servers / games as examples that rotations wouldn't work, yet my experience on this actual server says otherwise. Every single time, over the years, when the top guilds got suspended and the rest of the server shared mobs, there were huge flocks of people logging in. Even to this day, when quakes happen and even the lower guilds have guaranteed mobs to kill, the population increases. During the quarterly draft, guilds see record numbers online.
You have to remember, the vast majority of p99 players (and eq players in general) are in their 30-40s with careers and families. Most of them just want to kill dragons with friends and get some nostalgia and couldn't care less about 'competition', and the ones that do want some competition will get on an actual pvp game to scratch that itch.

There's probably at most 100-150 people and that's being generous, on each of the servers who actually care about competition and being poop sockers. Just like everything else in life the minority is always the most vocal and loud and scream at anyone who disagrees. I'm willing to bet that a P99 server with forced rotations would be the most populated server and the least amount of work for the GMs. But it will never happen.
