I like how the same threat of 'i'm quitting and you won't be getting my money anymore cause you fucked up Verant!' has evolved just into 'yea, I'm quitting cause you fucked up!'
since it's free.
It's not like handing out high end loot is a p99 thing only. GMs in old EQ gave out items that were BETTER than the best items ever available in game at that time. Butcherblock Hammer anyone?
Some portion of people will complain about anything you ever do. I think the vast majority of people either enjoyed it or don't really care. I got really unlucky and didn't get any of the drops that day, even though I had a chance at almost 8 pieces. I'm jealous of some friends that got some, sure, but mad at the GMs for giving them out? Nope.
