If you're trying to make friends, be ready to NBG pretty much anything that isn't a really big deal.
I'm not saying I've never agreed to NBG or passed on a valuable items because I knew someone else would be better served to use it. Sometimes NBG does make sense in some scenarios and to be honest I probably agree with the concept and with using it more often then not. My problem with it is the persistent argument, and actual belief, that NBG is super fair and the most unselfish loot system. It's absolutely not. The people who generally support it and insist on using it tend to argue that it's the fairest system and that having everyone /random is super selfish and greedy. I wholeheartedly disagree and cannot comprehend that way of thinking. If you want to use NBG because you are pals and friends with everyone in the group, or because you just wanna be a nice guy/gal, then great! but don't argue that it's somehow less greedy or more fair. Logically giving everyone equal right to /random IS the only 100% fair system. Plain and simple.
