P99 Group Etiquette for drops?

[Izmael]

If you wear 300k in gear and force a roll on a 150 item, you're basically an ass.

It's not a popular sentiment, but it's rational in terms of fairness. You can't expect anyone to pass on all loot that drops no matter what they're wearing, unless you think your time is more valuable than theirs, then you're basically an ass.

Not sure how you went from "rich guy in 300k gear wanting a 150pp item" to "pass on everything no matter what they are wearing".

This is Ravager we're talking about, he's not the full ticket.

I had no idea who he was, assumed a normal person. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm sorry you can't follow logic. What does it matter that he's in 300k armor? What does it matter that he wants to roll on a 5k item or a 150p item? He's part of the group same as you, if he wants something that you want, just roll on it. Shaming someone out of loot is kind of dickish. Everyone's playing the same game. Nobody "needs" anything more than the next guy.

I'm sorry you seem unable to defend a point of view without being passive-aggressive.

Adding 150 plat to your net worth doesn't have the same importance to the guy who can afford walking around with 300k worth of gear on them than to the guy running around in bronze or banded armor because it is their first character and they are noob.

If you fail to understand that, you are, unfortunately, not qualified to continue arguing with me.


TLDR: be nice to the noobs and some day they may remember that and help you back.

ninja loot then concede the next 2 spawns

best practice is after 17 years of playing the same game together, slander name and shame and quit the group/guild over pretty much everything.
