2012
It was reported on July 29, 2012 that the raids were back. No official announcement by SOE has been seen on the subject. In this thread, Piestro, EverQuest Community Manager, did state that it is intentional. Not all of them were working. Sometime around August 21, 2012 the ones that were up disappeared without comment from SOE.
