I never heard "power looting" in EQ until this thread, did hear "ninja looting" from early on referring to taking others' loot (raid mobs and quillmane cloak mostly)

Go back? It was always "ninja loot."

Only time I've ever heard of ploot is was a term for nasty smelling vaj.

Don't care much about this but...

Bard AE kiting is AE kiting, not swarm kiting.
Aggro is aggro. Not Argo. Not threat.... It's aggro.
Faction is faction. Not reputation.

Get your filthy WoW terms away from my classic box.

And faction is faction, not fraction.

/Though I don't see that as much now, it annoyed the hell out of me on Live...

Actually, I heard (saw?) the term "swarm kiting" on live pre-WoW on my server, but it was used to refer to what's now known as "charm kiting" in EQ.

Also, saw people say "argo" instead of aggro during that time. Though I agree, it should be 2 g's and the way vBulletin autocorrects it to say "agro" drives me bonkers. You are totally right about "threat" though, as I never heard it called that until WoW.

Ninja looting was always called ninja looting or ninja'ing where I grew up (kikou Karana!)

Yeah, I originally learned swarm kiting is when you charm one mob at a time in the group and the others beat it down. On this server it seems to mean kiting anything bigger than quadding. I now call using wands swarming. I blame others!
