He also talks to his companions when he's lonely and it's his happy time.

Why does anyone think that just because they are in a group and something drops they can use that it will automatically go to them? Who told you that? I have just as much right to that light armor chest piece, dps lightsaber or blaster pistol as you do. It's none of your business why I needed it, I needed it therefore I need it. End of story.

Easy explenation. They think they deserve it more or that they are entitled to it. They are somehow more important than everyone else. This is a VERY common attitude among gamers and MMO players.

You think you do, but ignorance is not an excuse.
PvP premades. Open world PvP premades. Easy groups for heroics/flashpoints. Easy access to crafting mats/crafters.

Yep. I'm clearly doin it wrong.

Edit: I don't understand what it is about this game that drew bads to it like flies. It is the star wars setting?

having different notion of what "need" means is not being rude.

The game asks "need", "greed", "pass" ... it asks and the player answers.

Unless someone has stated that these have specific meanings in the context of that particular group, it's unreasonable to expect people to ask for loot.

Quote:
Would you really listen if someone said that at the start of the group though? OR, first upgrade for your companion you see you say "screw this" and need it anyways?
There you go, projecting.

If someone said that, and if I stayed in group and later needed on something for my companion... THEN you'd be justified in being angry. But if you leave out the first step, you've got no room to complain

Yeah, it was just a bit of advice, not healthy to take such a angry view of others enjoyment.

Sounded more like an order to me.

Anyway, have fun playing your little meta-game here, Charlie.

No, actually it won't, since most people are not so immature and or stupid like these blowhards who aren't willing to post the names of their characters or the servers they're on. They won't put their money where their mouth is because they know they'll end up on the blacklists of most of the players on their servers if they persist in their behavior.

In reality, most people don't roll Need on items for their companions. I haven't seen it yet, and I've been on the game since beta weekends started. The people in this thread who support the idea are a tiny minority of selfish players, period.

So basicly your saying that every group who doesn't want ninjas should macro, "No needing on companions" at the start of group and at every boss drop....and even then people will ninja but my "anger will be justified"...

Open world PvP does not exist

Try being a tank sometime, instant heroic/flashpoints

GTH is chalk full of cheap crafted stuff + most is sub par to what you can get from pvp or quest commendations.

You can do pre-made warzone I give you that.... have a lot of fun running the same 3 over and over are you

AGAIN please give me your guild and server name I want to ask others how they are fareing.
