I'll pile on the NBG argument. I don't see why someone with less gear, who has put less effort into this game, should be entitled to loot over someone with more gear, who has put more effort into this game.
Also, everyone needs plat. The fact that someone has to take the extra step to sell an item rather than equip it to get value out of it doesn't mean they need it less. Roll the droppable items.

I don't see where more gear equals more effort, I was grouped with a twinked rogue, epic and all who started a few weeks ago. He made the character and his friends geared him out completely he hadn't put any effort in. Some people also could suffer from the RNG curse and lose every roll. To me it was the post classic EQ WoW mindset that equated gear with skill or effort. I have seen in the past and still see in P99 people in crud gear that I know can play their class well and thrive as part of a group and will always look for them on-line to team up.
I do agree that there is no cause to force NBG on people though. I am not twinked by a long shot this being my first toon and not having friends that talked me into coming over but I have saved plat, sold bearskins etc and bought some great Cha jewelry, I did the stein of mogguk quest and managed to buy a crude stein in Ogguk off a vendor. I was handed an advisor robe by player donation. I will always defer to NBG as my personal play style and pass on loot others need even though I could use money bad. But again, there should be no "rule" to force either NBG or all greed rolls. Just play the game and have fun!
