Oh god. I don't know how clear 9 different posters can make this...

how is there a language barrier, you said that a lvl 1 shouldn't have the loot rights to an a ring killed by the main of that account, if they couldn't kill it they lose rights to it? there is a language barrier but not from me. I don't know what players do and don't do, just what can they get away with.

It looks like it got missed in the shuffle over to page 2 so in case you missed it: http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...0&postcount=20

You kill it, you own it. There is established precedence to this.

I wasn't confused, i know i wouldn't do it just asked if it was ok to do it, tried a few different angles to put a slightly different spin on it thats all.

You are wrong, Xasten is clearly right.

Thanks Frieza, thats all i needed to know, just didn't know where to look .

Completely different context than killing something and logging off so an alt can loot it.

This situation....absolutely no different than dropping something on the ground. It's a risk you take. Have a friend loot for the MQ or just keep the corpse locked for you.

The people who try to ninja a corpse that someone was logging an alt to loot are certainly dicks and I don't condone it, but the people who would petition over this are wasting the guides' time imo. You can take precautions.

If a VP dragon is killed and the whole guild zones out and I log to my alt to loot the item, does that cede my loot rights?

I say the answer is that I clearly retain all rights. Given that Rogean's statement clearly homogenizes raid mobs and non-raid mobs for the rule's purposes, I fail to see your distinction.

Yes, you MIGHT argue that by logging you sent a message implicitly that you were giving up the loot rights. However, determining any implicit statments would be a factual inquiry unique to each situation. Implicit cessation of loot rights should be the exception and not the norm. That is precisely why I recommended he tell the individual lurking nearby that he does not, under any circumstances, cede his rights.

As for dropping items, I find two distinctions. 1. Rogean did not include item dropping in his statement. He clearly included any killed mob with unceded loot rights. 2. Item dropping has been explicitly recognized by rule-making authority as "at your own risk."

lol

a dozen people say you can't claim a kill for an alt that you log over to and he keeps rephrasing the question.

one person says what he wants to hear and says 'thanks!'
