I'll start this off by saying I don't think I've ever actually talked to you, but you seem like a good enough guy, Mythoxxus.

The problem is it seems to be a case-by-case basis. Any time a raid target spawns with loot 3 guilds all want, and something happens that isn't cut and dry, the GM has to hear 3 sides of the story (of which the whole truth may never be proven) and come up with a solution that he sees best fit. We all have to understand that incorrect calls can and will be made, both benefiting and hurting our respective guilds. If it were up to me, I'd vote no GM involvement at all and have the players sort things out on their own. We also have to remember the devs and GMs are doing this for free and on their own time. Things get heated, tempers flare and harsh words are thrown out by all sides, and a GM has to come and try his best to defuse the situation. I know I wouldn't want to be in that position.

I guess what I'm trying to say is we'll never have a 100% bullet-proof system in regards to who claims what and when. When GM intervention is called for, we all need to respect the outcome...Trans, IB, Divinity, Gothic Circle, Fish Bait, Europa, whoever. Before It was a CT spawn, this time it was a pair of monk masks, next time it could be a Cloak of Flames.
