Put in the time get the loot. Also we LC AoNs so those players that go to optional raids, donate pp and mallets to the guild get rewarded on top of winning loot from dkp.

Donates pp to the guild?

Supposed to be the other way around.

I guess you were not there to hear the silence in TS when the last AoN that dropped was awarded as prety much 10/16 people present uttered "wtf"?

its easy enough to parse raids and see who isn't contributing

far easier then objective (lol) loot council calls are

You must be speaking as a warmbody yourself because the kind of contributions that really matter and aren't a given don't really have a metric.

There's no easily available metric for comparing Colgate and Gongshow to Chiggen. There's no metric for a lot of very crucial differences in players. This is why in a good guild with loot council, each individual's contribution is weighed appropriately. Pure DKP systems fail to give the playmakers the credit they deserve and just add to the entitlement of warmbodies.

I would never seriously raid under a pure DKP system - it's a race to the bottom. However, I can see how they are sometimes necessary for a ragtag band of scrubs. Enjoy it.

I'm surprised Chiggen quit though. He could have saved up DKP for a fungi robe.
