Guess who is going to be at all the open raids? The most dedicated players / the players with the most time on their hands to play EQ.
It is no different than what is going on now, really. They just won't be able to organize as quickly.
Scenario 1:
Players sit around in EC waiting for mob to spawn.
People start shouting they are forming a raid. Whoever recruits faster goes up. People start picking favorites and forming tight circles that become exclusive.
Scenario 2:
Players sit around in EC waiting for mob to spawn.
Raid mob spawns, everyone has to ensure everyone has a ride to get there. Someone has to let their dog out and never comes back. Someone alt tabs and takes forever. Someone goes LD. Everyone waits. Players decide those people have taken too long. Mob is slain. Players come back 30 minutes later and petition that the entire group of players online who asked to be a part of the raid were skipped out on because of greed / they knew I needed the item too so they cut me out etc.
