I tend to prefer DKP but have been in guilds with all sorts of systems and as long as the people are good, things turn out fair. So don't join crappy guilds. As far as being with someone for a month, at that stage you really don't have a good sense as to who deserves what. Maybe you were with them for a month but the person getting over you was with them for 5 and nothing dropped for him. To me it sounds like you are just being very impatient and seeing only your own limited perspective. By 1 month in a guild i have 0 expectations (though I often get stuff). By 4 months I probably shoudl have gotten a couple of pieces of something, etc, and have begun to develop a sense of who deserves what. By 9 months to a year i basically know if someone is getting things that doesn't deserve them. At 1 month there is no way I can know who contributed what and who deserves what, I barely know the guild.
Also, this server is unique in that progression is super slow (4 years of Kunark) so unless the guilds you're joining are giving planar loot to alts over new full members, you should not be running into this issue. The 'mains' in the lead of these guilds will have gotten planar loot long, long ago, and be mostly raiding to help others.
