How is "Ninja" defined?

Recommended Posts

@Wrathran, lol, why are you telling me all this?

You said that people "don't need gold", I called bullshit on that, because you're wrong, it's simple as that. I didn't ask your opinion on how I should behave in a group, I'm doing just fine, thank you.

I have never said people don't need gold, by the meaning of the word need. You are, again, playing with words. Words have different meaning if different contexts.  In this game, the loot window have 2 options, they could be called anything. They are called Need, with a dice, and greed, with a gold coin. They could be called "equip" and "sell" just the same as that's how the vast majority of players use the words. If you roll specifically for gold, you click greed, that's what the gold coin is there to show you. If you don't think the actual gold coin icon matter and that it clearly show you that it means roll for goldcoins you are an idiot. It's not a matter of the word need, it's the matter of the meaning of the word GREED and the gold coin icon and how the community use the button. You roll for gold, you click on the gold icon. Get it? Probably not, but can you try and get it? Can you? Common, it's not that hard and complicated.

In every single group I have been in for 9 years, thousands for groups, in EVERY one, unless the group have agreed on something else, if you click need on an item you intend on selling and not equipping, the other 4 players have called that player a ninja.

And again: You can make any rules you want in your group. Just communicate with your group and come to an agreement.

You said that gear has a higher roll priority than equvalent amount of gold, to be precise. Don't play a fool, that's what you meant, otherwise your post made no sense at all. And you are wrong.

May I ask a very complicated question - why? Any agruments backing up and proving that this is how it should be? Except, of course, the useless "that's how it's always been".

It's not a complicated question but it's a pointless question.
We are a community and this is how the vast majority of the community play the game together. Why is it called ninja even? Why is need called need in the english language and not Muppflyff, who cares. Why is this the system we use, who cares, it's the system we use, and in we, I speak of the vast majority of the community in World of Warcraft and I base that claim on my observation of thousands of groups.

And again, again: You can make any rules you want in your group. Just communicate with your group and come to an agreement.

Personally I prefer if everyone just rolls need on every BoE/mats that drops as it's the most safe and fair system (the best system is on retail where BoE loot becomes soulbound if you click need). But it doesn't matter what I think as the community as a whole is rolling greed for gold and need for equip as default and breaking that unwritten rule without an agreement makes you a ninja.

So if now you agree with me, well, then there's nothing more to argue about.

The fact that people should communicate with their group about the loot rules is obvious enough and nobody seems to argue against that.

It's not ninja. It happens all the time, not just with nodes, but witch questi tems other resources aswell. You are not in a raid or group environment where you can set rules

Above is the best reply. 

Locking the thread because it has become just two people going in a circle, and it looks like they have reached a good stopping point.
