I'll second two things that have been said:
First it's CAWU or FFA (I don't remember seeing NBG in a group until way later in EQ, don't ruin my Classic experience :P)
Nagash/Petitpas
It was NBG on Prexus in '99. I have never heard of CAWU but I have heard of FFA.

dude, it's a game, if you don't enjoy grouping then solo to your greedy heart's content.

A tank wearing heavy ass armor has more need then a freaking greedy druid.
The druid should not have been allowed to roll.

NBG is how all groups should work but your all a bunch of children in a sandbox that never learned how to share your toys.

The tank shouldn't have ninja looted but the druid shouldn't have rolled in the first place.

If an item no matter what it's worth is not an upgrade then say I would like to roll on that if everyone else is but honestly I wouldn't use it and it would be for selling ect....

how hard is that kids?
"You all put in the time here working for this item to drop, and it's very valuable, but I have the crappiest gear right now, so that means the item should go straight to ME no questions asked. If you object YOU are the greedy one. The only fair and not greedy thing to do is give it straight to ME, no ifs, ands, or buts. You spent your time here and did your part and have the nerve to want a chance at loot? So greedy you are!"

That logic always makes me lol. "YOU GUYS NEED TO STOP BEING GREEDY AND GIVE THE ITEM TO MEEEEEE"

I'm kind of surprised how many people in this thread are ragging on Need Before Greed. Are we even playing the same game? I've been in countless pick-up groups and can't remember a single one where items didn't go to people who were going to use them first. Even really expensive items.

The user base on these forums tends to be a minority of p99 players, not the majority. Either that, or people just flat out lie about stuff and claim all of their groups are greed when in fact they are not.

The only groups I've ever been in that have not been NBG were groups targeted at acquiring loot, like Efreeti. And I've even been in NBG Efreeti groups. But a general experience PuG, not camping any specific item(s)? Always NBG.

I'm not commenting on whether or not it's a good system. It is what it is. But people in this thread are acting like NBG is as foreign as just giving the item to whichever player has the longest name. The majority of PuGs on this server use NBG.

i normaly just go with the flow, but i do find it hard to say, no Mr cleric you can not have the Donals helm that just droped you must roll the highest number. The key is to make sure the rules are discussed before hand, and we all know they never are.

tell you what, I'd bet my shirt that if I track Zoolex and inspect him, he doesn't wear the ring.
Confirmed tonight...

NBF is BS! If I put in the time I should be allowed to roll on the loot, especialy if its an expensive item like this ring. I can always sell it and buy upgrades I need. GTFO with NBG, I do that with mates / guild, not in a damn pick up group - unless its discussed before of course.
