Mage_01 wants stronger pets cause that was classic

Rogue_01 wants to be able to pickpocket "magic" tag

These would conflict each other cause the mage wanted the pet to be able to solo spawns (I.E farm loot) and giving a rogue the ability to lift items would just be a punch in the throat to that mage.

It's the same situation with the pre-nerf gnollslayer most of the people QQing about it being OP were cries from druids/mages/enchanters because the pet in itself and the ratio gave melees a bit more edge in taking camps (Hell I was soloing giants at level 12 with it)

So if I were to tally the "No" vote a majority of those would come from caster classes that solo spawns simply cause this contradicts their ability to sell loot.

So why would the majority of the server want to give rogues this ability? They don't because it's going to cause a massive headache and hit to their pocket books if it IS implemented...

Classic or not people don't like changes which interfere with their own ability to progress, certainly rogues mass PPing mobs would certainly stop their 24/7 camps and drag their goods in the economy down a couple K cause the ease and frequency of getting said "luxury" items.
Terrible logic. I am a warrior and voted no and have never camped loot in my life except for jboots. Most people are probably voting no because they don't want to see even more whining than already goes on on this board. How many people are gonna post in bugs forum that so and so's loot table is messed up because he didn't get an item. Or the thousand other ways someone might bitch, complain, or mistaken a problem or issue because of this and bring it to the forums.

This server has been up for what, 6 months now? and you are the FIRST Rogue to have brought this up?

I agree with Aeoloeoloelwind, maybe it should have been in at the beginning, but its not getting added at this stage.
