I think there is merit on both sides of this argument. I prefer NBG, but I can see things working the other way as well.
My main question is since this appears to be a greed oriented server as far as rolling on items, do you just let people win whatever they can? Say someone in the group wins this tstaff and a fungi tunic also drops. Do they get to roll on the fungi as well? Keeping all the high end items for themselves? Or does it at least get distributed a little bit?
The main problem I have is on live hacking randoms was the one of the first big things that was hacked. If a guy has that advantage it isn't really fair to the group. Not saying this has happened but it at least deserves some conversation.
Another thing that I might add is NBG helps the current group but also future groups. I have certain people that I have leveled with basically since lvl 20. We have all went by the NBG method. And it has worked well. People get more gear in this group and further helps the future groups with these same people. Also helps getting an invite back into said group if you aren't greedy. So there is also some benefits to not being selfish and greedy. Of course at the higher end game in old seb and KC and such this begins to dwindle as most of the groups become out of necessity and not preference.
