"Need before greed"

Agree with you. Seems like a pretty ridiculous argument some people are making in this thread that because the "needer" may eventually replace the item with an upgrade at some vague point in time down the road (and then likely sell the old item that they rolled need on, possibly months before they sold it) that they can't roll need on something. If I was in a group with people like that I'd leave the group (and I've also never actually seen people apply the theory of no need rolls at all in a group before, so it seems like that's an extreme minority opinion).

Exactly the point I made earlier. There is a large disparity between what people are espousing in the forums and what is actually occurring in-game. NBG seems the norm is most every group I come across, and yet here on this thread it’s led by those largely against Need before Greed. I don’t understand this chasm of difference between in-game culture and our-of-game theory.
