There are people on this server with only 1 character that do not "camp" in EC to buy an item they are wanting. They get in groups and camp the mob that drops it.
That's nice, but it's irrelevant to what I was saying.

Say you are a Monk in UGUK grouping and getting xp. You show up at the entrance and slap LFG on. Your telling me you would argue tooth and nail if the group was camping Scryer or AC and the INT bracers or sleeves dropped with casters in your group that need them?
No, actually my first statement indicates I wouldn't do that. Again, whatever the group agrees is the rule. If they have 5 people who are NBGing, I can leave - but I can't make them change the rule. I don't know if this is the case for you, but people seem terrified to actually discuss loot rules sometimes - as if it's a "dirty" subject or something. That's the primary way to get punked - not talk about something which is one of the primary reasons you're even in the group.

I will contend it might be different for 50+ levels camping things. But mark me when I say, if there are 4 guildies that invite people into your group because you need them with the intend to shuttle any dropped items amongst yourselves, expect an argument if you don't communicate your intentions to the person you intend to chump.
If you never check what loot rules are - particularly if the rest of the people in the group are guildies - you're going to eventually get chumped if you play for any length of time. Fact. You assumed something that wasn't true - that the group would be NBG - and that's your fault. I sure hope group communication skills extend beyond "thx for invite", "incoming mob", "add", and "heal plz."
