I would totally start playing again if that were to happen, both for the salty tears from all the sweaty neckbeards that have literally ruined their lives in order to poopsock and pixel block a dead game, and also because I'm an actual adult with responsibilities, a actual life, and interested outside of 20 year old MMOs, so being able to schedule raid nights with my buddies without NEET nerds around sounds like a blast.

Instanced raiding in the classic era would be so terrible IMO. Honestly, EQ raiding isn't that exciting or complex, at least not until like PoP where things got much cooler. As a result, part of what makes it actually interesting is the non-instanced aspect...knowing that you need to make sure these pulls are perfect and that you get those mobs down in time, and that you get your raid force to the right location and organized, before the other guild shows up to try to snipe. Knowing that if you wipe on that dragon, you are probably done raiding for the evening, at least for the valuable stuff. Strategizing on where to go and when during a quake to try and end around the other guilds.
If it were noninstanced classic raiding would honestly be so terrible and monotonous. The only thing that keeps it fresh at all is the competition.
