equipment loot would kill your population. I probably wouldn't play, but I'm the type who'll spend hours camping something. Losing that time just cause some yellow con twink was bored would make me go seek a more rewarding gaming experience.

imo let the guy take my coin and bags full of food, water, and beer. What im wearing is mine.

......

Next argument is.. people will bag their gear before they die. One idea I thought was interesting was any droppable item that wasn't equipped, could be available for loot. This means players wouldn't choose to bag their items, because those are the items players could loot. I've also seen suggestions like, any non-magical bagged item, such as gems or random armor.

The other biggest argument I've seen was, "I don't want to camp an fbss for 10 hours to lose it in a fight". Aside from the custom item loot rulesets which may protect against this, no one is making anyone camp an fbss for 10 hours.

I'd like to think there is some type of item loot ruleset which people could agree with. More features = win.
