I guess it's hard to read all those replies to your posts and comprehend what is being said when you have those gold tinted glasses on. Many of the replies to your mental diharrea are both logical and sensible. I made several and read a ton more of them. You just choose to ignore them and restate your rationalization claiming that people 'just don't understand it' ('it' being what a greedy cunt you are).

It's awesome how every one of these threads leads to the same conclusion. Oakenlix is a delusional, selfish, greedy and illogical cunt. Here's a great idea, start a new thread titled: Hi I'm Oakenlix a greedy cunt. Then post 300+ times in it.

@Oakenlix I understand your perspective completely. I disagree with it completely. It is neither fair nor logical. It is a greed based rationalization period. I read all your posts in their entirety and responded to all your questions and statements. Do whatever you want bro.

The difference is that his upgrade dropped, yours did not. Pretty obvious difference. But this fact is rendered meaningless in your school of thought. It's clear that you are unable or unwilling to distinguish gear from gold which makes this discussion pointless. Gear is gear and gold is gold. Any other interpretation of that fact is an invention of your mind. You need gear you can use to progress. - Need You want gold to progress faster/easier. - Greed Once again, I understand your perspective, acquiring gold in vanilla sucks. It takes a significant time investment, so why not take a little shortcut at the expense of some random, right? Ultimately you are taking a detour off of reality road to arrive at that destination without realizing that you are pissing people off. In all fairness, I wouldn't label it as Ninja looting. It's called being a dick.

Look Oak, I understand your perspective but it is rationally and fundamentally incorrect. That is why it is the perspective of the minority. You are asking me to explain things that I have already explained. I agree that the gold could be used to buy gear upgrades, but guess what? You can obtain that gold by other/less douchebaggy means that doesn't involve screwing over another player out of a gear upgrade that actually dropped. Go grind for 5 days. What's that? You don't want to? Nobody does, but it's a solution that doesn't deprive anyone of needed items. You don't have a lower priority than the other player, your gear simply didn't drop. Now you need to invest more time to acquire your gear. Maybe next party some BoEs will drop that no one needs and you can cash in legitimately. Or if you're lucky your needed BoE will drop and no greedy people who cannot use it will roll on it. There is no way to conclude that needing on gear that you cannot use is fair without ignoring or twisting the facts. Everyone does not benefit equally from winning a BoE, only the persons who cannot use it benefit equally because they convert it to gold.

There is no contradiction in my statement. You injected/invented a contradiction with your rebuttal by quoting a portion of my statement and sprinkling it with your go to rationalization for need rolling on gear you cannot use. Unfortunately, a BoE drop is not a bag of gold. If it were, it would be split equally among the party members. Looking at a BoE item as a bag of gold is an invention of your rationalizing mind, it is not what actually occurs.

You need gear to progress through the game and clear content. Gold is a luxury that expedites your acquisition of needed items. You do not need gold, you want it so you can obtain your needed items faster. Therefore; rolling need on an item that you cannot use for the purpose of selling it, when a party member can and will use it, is selfish and greedy. You are placing more value on the acquisition of a luxury versus the party member's need for the gear to continue their character's progression. What you do with that luxury after needing on an unusable item is irrelevant. This seems like a very straightforward concept although I can understand the motivation to rationalize your way around it when the item's perceived value is high.
