Big difference from here and live is that you're allowed to sell your characters here. Kind of invalidates the whole NBG system imo.

This does raise controversy on the subject even further. More bones to add to the pile. In the end everyone is going to have differing feelings on the matter. Some people have suggested to check with the group before hand and if you don't like it leave group or don't even join.

However that plays into the hands of the group not the one who attends the group, as the group already has the camp, and the force to take the named,

MQ's are soft. All those fart farts hating on OP's call for decency are soft as fuck.

Greed puts everyone on an even playing field for groups.

Also, I don't know where people get this idea of a Utopian Norrath back in 2000 (I say 2000 because that is where we are on the timeline). I remember every PuG being Greed unless otherwise specified on the Xev server. Sure, we didn't usually MQ stuff as much, but that was because we were much less sure of which items were MQable. This information wasn't readily out there.

If I was in a PuG and a pipe dropped, I would probably pass on it, but I can't promise anything. I care more about making my guild strong than gear at this point, so I'd want it for a guildy. Let's just assume I do pass on it, I wouldn't disapprove of anyone else rolling on it.

Teddie, you'd also be in a guild group, so you'd see the benefit of that pipe later. If I'm with random_player_05, who says I'll ever see them again and see the benefit of that pipe again?

Also, as a bard, gear is largely irrelevant, besides resists and a drum. Am I supposed to pass on all haste items in groups because a rogue or monk doesn't have one yet? What happens when that rogue turns L2 and obtains his ragebringer? All of a sudden he gets to sell a 25k RBG because he "needed" it, and I'm left broke. That's bullshit when I'm very likely to be the bard that pulled the mob that dropped the RBG. And the bard that played slow song to keep the mob from stomping the group, and the bard that played haste to allow the rogue to kill it faster. I've "earned" that RBG as much as that rogue, if not more because I'm definitely working harder in my group role. Tapping backstab is so hard bros.

I'm fine with a greed-roll policy for the server. What sucks is being in a NBG group when something nice drops you could sell; then later in a greed-roll group where something drops that you need. In this case you just got screwed twice. If the policy were consistent you'd just get screwed once.
