let's say a pipe drops from pawbuster in KC. Everyone /random for it and let us say that a ranger wins the role. That ranger could sell the MQ for mabye 10-25k nowadays. That ranger could maybe buy a Tolans BP for that, or several pieces of armor or weapons. How is that ranger not suppose to roll on an item if selling that item makes their character better?
If not a ranger, then it could be any class. If that random class can use the plat to make themselves better by buying spells and items then more power to them.
Let us say a mage wins the pipe and sells it for 15k and buys a COTH for 15k. Then that mage is a better mage for winning a pipe. That mage is more useful in groups and soloing. How else is that mage going to get better? Somtimes a big pa day like getting a pipe to sell for MQ, or even at lower levels selling jboots for 5k, that might make the player enough plat to make their character better.

We all understand your reasoning, it just didnt work that way back in classic, at least not the majority. Tradable items were usually /ran, but no drop items specific for a class-only quest were not. It was defaulted to that person, and nobody thought twice about it. From my memory, the only time no drop items were /ran and MQ'd was if nobody in the group/raid could use. This "WoW" type mentality kills what classic eq was
