This is another example of the loot rules not being well established or agreed upon followed by greedy, childish behavior. Many friend/guildees, what have you needed a healer and grouped a Druid. The Druid took exception to the ring being NBG'd. Regardless of the circumstances, everyone rolled. I don't understand a limited NBG roll. (Meaning that melees who need, roll?) I don't think that's fair. Either everyone agrees to NBG or Greed, not some quasi version of it. Partial guild groups appear to be taking advantage of people of late when it comes to loot distribution. Disclose up front how your going to screw someone over on loot drops please so that person can decide to stay or go. Not use them to make the group survivable then screw them over.
No, it's really not. Every single person in the group, including the druid, knew it was NBG. There are three different group members, Zoolex not included, that have posted in this thread saying exactly that. In the screenshot, the druid defends his roll on the basis of NBG. Everyone knew it was NBG. The rules were clearly well established. And the druid didn't even take issue with NBG. It's not like he said "I never agreed to NBG, that's unfair -- I want to roll." He tried to use NBG to narrow the roller-pool down to 2. He rolled under NBG, against the only melee in the group, and then defended it by saying he had no ring slot *roll eyes*. The rest of the group rolled afterwards on behalf of the tank to try to kill the issue.

The only issue here is whether or not a druid has a right to roll need on a Gem Encrusted Ring. A bunch of people are unnecessarily raging against NBG -- it's not the issue. NBG was agreed upon ahead of time. Whether it's a stupid system or not is immaterial. This situation is equivalent to a wizard rolling NBG on a Thick Banded Belt. It's horseshit, and everyone in the group knew it was horseshit. It had nothing to do with being guildies or friends.

All I can say is either some of you aren't keeping up with the details of this situation, or some of you need to have this happen to you in-game to understand exactly what just went down. The funny thing is, I know some of you in game, and you are NOT the type of people that would claim need on an item that is useless to your class. Which makes it all the more perplexing that you're defending it. You're the exact type of people that would get screwed by a person like OP. (That's a compliment).
