Please, Don't Roll on Items for Another Class in Your Team

Here is what the SWTOR website says about need before greed looting:

I have no complaints with this approach. If I want a good chance at securing the item, I will select need. Otherwise, I will choose greed to give others a better chance at securing the item.

Note that it does not say "if this item belongs to you, press need".

No, it sounds to me like he is saying that you can do what you like, just like he can. It's just if you don't do what he wants, you will get booted from the group.

If he tells you this before the roll (and you agree), then he is perfectly right to do so. If you break rules that were agreed to by the group, you should be booted.

EDIT: The official rule is "If you want a good chance at securing the item, select NEED." If the group agrees to something more restrictive, then that's what they agree to.

No but 90% of the server will most likely not group with you if you do so. Have fun searching for groups for hours cause nobody likes you.

Do what you want mate, all it does is make you look greedy and selfish.

When the group picks up a unique item, by default, all members have the opportunity to roll for the item.

Was your companion a member? What about your alts? No?

Group members have more rights to a drop than non-group members, right? Don't they?

He's only a #3 on the greed scale.; you're a #5

From least greedy/selfish to most greedy/selfish

• Guy who passes on everything
• Guy who greeds on everything
• Guy who hits need on the stuff that they think is appropriate to hit need on, and does not demand that anyone ever pass on an item in his favor.
• Guy who hits need on everything, and does not demand that anyone ever pass on an item in his favor.
• Guy who hits need on the stuff that they think is appropriate to hit need on, and demands that everyone else pass on an item in his favor because it meets some arbitrary criteria that he's defined that doesn't actually agree with the game's loot system.

I think that #3 is an acceptable position; #4 is a tad on the greedy side, but I usually won't bother saying anything about it.

#5 on the other hand, is being selfish enough that all people should call them out for it.

Looks like you're contradicting yourself. If you would choose to remove someone, then you're saying that it's your call.

Your scale is opinion, much like my opinion in this thread. I would actually place myself at 3, with a sprinkling of 1. I would place you all at a 6th point

*Must have shinies for companions, even at the expense of the healer healing us more, or the tank taking more damage, or the dps increasing their effectiveness. Because I want my personal NPC to look great for when I run around cause nobody wants to group with me anymore. I need to complete my dailies and heroics somehow.

I never said to not roll so I can benefit, not once. Strawman is flawed. Removing someone is a group call, I said I would and so would everyone I know. I have yet to contradict myself.

If you are only in there to get equipment for you and your companion, you have no business grouping. If you have to roll need on something, make sure a PC can't use it first otherwise you are just a rude individual.

What happened to oldschool MMO players that weren't self-entitled little turds? I can remember a time where what you people suggest would have had you all crucified on a game and ostracized for the rest of said characters game life.

Keep on talking, you sound more like a you-know-where hunter/rogue by the second.
