I'd like to see an official staff member response on the issue of a mob opening up at the 4:59 timer on a solo mob, personally. The previous thread with the enchanter ninja looting was an obvious case.
But let's go back to the case of camping an AC ring. The player kills it, logs off, and logs on an alt to pick it up. The player doing this is solo - there is no group, there is no group member to 'lock' the mob's loot window to make the exchange.
Another player sees what's up and yanks the ring due to poor load timing of the first player. Okay, so, answer me this. On an old Retail server like Fenin Ro or Brell Serilis, what wold happen? What would a CSR exactly do to handle this situation if the first player reported it?
I will tell you what they'd do. They would laugh their ass off at the first player's misfortune and quote that when the mob opened up with NO ONE AROUND, it was FFA.
If you can truthfully state that you had a similar situation of a dead mob + no one around being reported against someone looting, and their being successful, I'd love to see it in print.

If the problem comes up, petition it then. Don't try and get the official layout on rules now so people can do what can only be considered a douche bag move. Different CSR will react different based on the slightest difference in situation.
Was NO ONE around? Was there no one around for a min while the corpse was still locked but then someone got on? How do know that person isn't the person who killed it and just went LD for a minute? How about lets not play this game on how much I can massage the rules until I find out the fine line where I can be an asshole.
