I would be interesting to know whether the non-group looter was new to P99 or an existing (Blue/Red) player?

When grouped I always tell people to loot before someone else does. If the person in rotation isn't available, the next person in rotation loots and that person gets next. No big deal.

And hate to say it, this is classic; I remember those invis rogues hanging around corpses waiting to loot back in the day. Get off my lawn.

This behavior is actually pathetic, and I’m not talking about the dumb bard. Someone ticks you off in-game? Over a freaking Gnoll fang? Move on, social popo. How many crappy people do you interact with everyday and what do you ever actually by carrying the negativity forward? Complain to your group of friends, not a public forum.

Is noone gonna address this glaring issue from OPs post:

- Their group killed a gnoll (during which one team member died) in Black Burrow. The gnoll had a fang.
- The dead member's turn it was, for fang loot.
- The group waited for the dead chap to leg it and loot it.

Can someone tell me how feasible it is to run as a low level (dodge mobs etc), zone twice AND get to a corpse to loot a fang all within 5 mins or so?

I think the OP's group itself didn't think it through.

I am amused that Blue had such clowns they had to rule lawyer up ninja looting. Which hilariously, seems to be applied to lowbie items also in this thread.

If your group/raid could not get who loots what sorted out in a few minutes, you got bigger issues than the loot, really.

I'll try to get it from Normal if he ever logs in again. Wouldn't blame him if he didn't

Could you imagine? if you were walking around blackburrow for the one of the first times ever, you just learned about the fang quest, you form a habit of checking all the corpses. You spot one as you're passing by, and go "oh neat a fang!" loot and it and 'go on your merry way.'
`
Next thing you know there's someone lecturing you in tells: you respond calmly but it's a no drop item worth ~2% of level 8 and it drops all the time. What can you do?
Your guild kicks you
A gm contacts you and suspends you
You go on the forums and there's a 14 page thread of people calling you an idiot and arguing about your actions

Welcome to green. And no I don't know what happened or if he is suspended. Normal has not spoken or revealed himself yet. All we have is this thread and Llandris' cryptic warnings.

Nobody is suspended. Nobody exists on purpose. Nobody belongs anywhere. Everybody's gonna die. Go play EQ

Me too. Most of us would have. There are ways the group can easily manage the loot better. IE the next person loots and when that person gets back they loot the next and order resumed as normal. Just silly. Timer was created for a reason.
