You can think that if it helps you convince yourself you are correct. The very fact that this thread is over 100 pages would infer that there is a lot of disagreement with you though.
What is that baseball bat in your signature? Oh! It's a lightsaber! How cute is that !

These forms are going to be inherently less skewed and a better Representative of the player community then your server ever will be.

Your server is composed of a group of people who like to play a given way. Be it PvP, or RP or pure PvE.

The forms are going to be a much more random selection of people then any one server.

Oh, you can certainly draw what conclusions you like, but trying to put numbers on the proportions with a certain view, as you attempted to do, is certainly not justified.

I know this thread is massive so no one is ever going to read my post, but I'll give my 2c anyway!

I think anyone can roll "Greed" on anything they want. If they really want an item not for their class so they can use the skin or on an alt, then I'd say they ask in group chat first. Plenty of time to do that while it's rolling. If no one for that class truly needs it, then sure go for it. Personally some of the heavy armor for Mercs is pretty ugly so I've thought about getting some Sith heavy armor and remodding it. Although I'd only roll on somthing in a group setting if no one of that class needed it.

And if the item is an upgrade for him, why doesn't he have the right to roll on it?

badmouth you, get guilds to black list you and anything else they want to do to you.
Actually some of these things are grounds to have a person or even a whole guild banned from the game, because it's a violation of the TOS/EULA.

No, not my way. The right way. Ever heard the expression "He played the game the right way"? Same applies here. A FP is a group mission. You're part of a team. Play the right way and be fair to all. If an items drops that would upgrade their PC more than any of the other PCs, pass on it if they need it. That's good sportsmanship. Hence my statement, play the right way.

I quite intentionally avoided putting numbers in, other then what is clearly a massive majority. I'm not saying which camp has the majority, but I will say and feel fairly safe in saying so, it's not nearly as clear cut as some people think it is.

You, sir, officially win the thread.

"Stop telling me what to do! I'm the only one who gets to tell people what to do!"

Or possibly: "I'm not telling you what to do! I'm just threatening to do everything I can to ruin your play experience if you don't do exactly what I want you to!"

Wow.
