NBG is inherently unfair. in the long run of play time, you should expect to win the same value of droppable loot as anyone else.

the argument that a 500k-gear-twinked person should yield a dropped item worth 1k to an ungeared player is dumb, assuming they put forth the same amount of effort to get that item to drop. in fact, the twinked person likely had a much bigger impact on getting that item to drop than the untwinked player, but the /ran 100 is based on the assumption that everyone in a group is putting forth the same level of effort.

arguing that the twinked person should yield loot to the non- or lesser-twinked player is just arguing for welfare. the twinked player obviously put a lot of time in to get to that level - why should he or she be obligated to help other players, aside from the huge implicit advantage of enabling the group to kill more mobs? some would argue that super-twinked players should have a higher roll modifier than rusty weapon wielding scrubs.

people who play a lot are also more responsible for the relatively easy access to gear via player-to-player transaction. you can camp seafuries for a few hours to get the pp necessary for an FBSS here, but on live that shit would take days.

the "well maybe the twinked player should just be nice" line is too inane to even attack. get out of your fantasy world, you're already in one
