But if you’re looting random trash mobs during the time when the corpse is unlocked for everyone because the person killing them is just leaving them there while they run around killing a bunch of other mobs, you’re not doing anything illegal. There’s a reason that corpses eventually unlock for a third party to loot. If you don’t want someone looting your trash mobs then loot them when you kill them not later.
This is 1000% incorrect.

While yes, most likely in that scenario the person doing the killing isn't interested in the loot and probably doesn't give a shit that you're looting it. However based on p99 rules its not allowed and if that player doing the killing wanted to complain about it the person looting will get in trouble.

I agree with you that the lockout loot timer should do the policing itself (after all im pretty sure why its designed that way) but that's not the rules here.
