Haha ^ this is awesome. I have checked back on this post now and then to see how it is progressing and I am glad that you followed up on this.

Who actually though that this guy was going to "Need" this ring? "Oh i need it so I can switch out with my other great ring so I can use its strength benefits to carry my loads of loot"

Anyway, I have been grouping in FM with my alt since release of Kunark. I have not yet been lucky enough to win a roll on a GER, even though I have rolled on 10 or more of them (Unlucky I know...), and every single group I have been in has either stated at the start that it is FFA or when the ring drops they state FFA before rolling or it is just unspoken and someone says roll for ring. I must have been in close to 40 groups lvl 25-35 since Kunark release and not a single one of them has done NBG on the ring.

I agree that NBG is greedy. It is the most greedy way of doing loot. Personally, most of the time, I would defer the loot to someone who actually needed it. Most people who are not complete dick do but we should be given that choice. Unless it is a group of friends/guildies it should be FFA for all droppable and expensive (relative to level) items. The plat value of the item is just as needed by all members of the group.

I think both sides made mistakes but the random system was used and in any confusion the loot should have been differed by the ONLY concrete system in place which was the /random.

On another note; even if NBG was discussed beforehand and an item dropped, anyone should be able to rolled who decides at that point that they want to. Is it a dick move? Yeah. But it is still well within their right to do so.
