Default Scout's an absolute joke. So let's change the "rules"

I know I'm not alone when I think this set of "rules" imposed by a minority of players on the server at large is a bunch of hogwash.

So, here's a compromise:
  • Between the hours of 6pm - 6am Est, you can have your /random where 40 people show up and put no effort forth to get free loot.
  • Between the hours of 6am - 6pm Est, we fall back on a clickfest, where 10-15 people show up and have to at least try for a turnin. And, yes, they're allowed to transfer loot rights to a friend or buyer.

This doesn't sound very fair on Euro (or Russian/Asian) time zone players.

You don't want to open that Pandora's Box, you just lengthened your odds on winning the roll by a noticeable amount.

Sorry pal, this doesn't sound very reasonable. There are just a lot of people rolling because the items are good and the barrier to entry is low. Short of mechanics changes, a roll is the least bad option. Click fests are worse.

Spoken by a true hero who clearly did not live in that clickfest hell. Let the people roll their dice.

The clickfest was the absolute worst. Keep the roll.
