I'm not sure about this. Obviously FF XI had a similar system and it worked, but I think this is more for Free Companies / Linkshells (and honorable Party Leaders). I'm afraid of the trolling and loot stealing that could happen in random situations, though.

This is FANTASTIC news! :D Such a good thing to have, for those accidental lots (or for situations where you lot, only to have a friend / party member ask (too late) if they can have it, and you wanted to give it to them then).

Also, even if you Need on an item, you will still be able to help others with the progression of Alexander.

This is great news! :) If this comes to fruition, it finally opens up Free Companies and Linkshells (and Friends outside of Statics) to help each other out (and have more FC-based activities with "odd number players" (outside of the usual static 8 players). :)

Everyone who has ever complained about not wanting a QnA are ungrateful people who need reminding what yoshi-p and his team did to bring this game back from the dead. Grow up and just be thankful he gave you any sort of information. Because to be honest i love this game and everything that comes with it, yes there are problems but it is the only MMO i have stuck around for longer than 6 months and not get bored.

I suspect that the players who you describe as "ungrateful" and "whining" are simply frustrated because they did what they were told to do - submit questions to the designated threads - but the many questions didn't result in many answers.

Others are simply suggesting that the questions could be addressed at some point, perhaps in forum or topics posts, which seems like a pretty good idea!

There's probably also a degree of frustration that some burning questions that pop up on nearly every thread continue to remain unanswered.
