However, the raiders here want the competition, they want the feel of seeing the other people that they're beating right next to them trying for the mob and failing. No other game has captured that, and sadly it looks like no other game will, because the genre has clearly moved away from it.
classic live EQ had rotations and even calendar-based rotations enforced strictly by GMs. classic live EQ also had FFA where, unless your corpse disappeared, the GMs didn't care. what's difficult to ignore is the poo volcano the 2 competing guilds and their fanboys RnF verbal thrashing ultimately exacerbated the issue. spout your nonsense elsewhere
