Long story short me and my friends were trying to get me some P4S weapon chests, we only got 7 people, so we stated our need in party finder, we will pay 1m gil for passing those chests.
And then a reaper join in, that reaper was super chatty, post toolbox link when one of us made a mistake, explaining mechanics, etc, so we thought okay this is a friendly person and willing to cooperate.
SO I DID NOT TURN ON LOOTMASTER. Omg this was one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made in my life.
After the raid all my friends passed on the chests and that reaper cast bigger numbers and got both the chests.
Having trust issues now.

"Fraud" is an act of deception intended to deprive a player of their full enjoyment of the game or a player's property. Fraud occurs most often as a result of breaching in-game agreements between players regarding trading, loot, or betting.
Key Points: (some points I bolded for you)
If a report has been filed and the prohibited activity is confirmed, a penalty will be issued. Additionally, the item and/or gil obtained through fraud will be confiscated
In some cases, players may have simply overlooked the loot rules agreed upon within the group, or may have made a mistake and looted an item differently from the rules, which resulted in a situation similar to "cheating." If the situation is resolved through discussion between the players, then it is not a violation. However, if the situation is not resolved through discussion and a report is made, and it is confirmed that the situation is equivalent to "cheating," the item, gil, etc. in question will be confiscated, even if the action was not intentional. However, if it is determined that the situation was not an intentional act of fraud, the penalty may be reduced depending on the circumstances.

In addition, you can check your own past chat logs if you are on PC. They're a big ugly mess, but you can pull chat text.

People are nice, in appearance, it happened to me to farm during twenty runs with people apparently "nice", but at the slightest mistake, it is disband.
But in what world do you live, to be surprised ? -

Honestly, while the RPR was being a jerk for breaking an agreement, they helped you get the clear and deserve the roll on the loot really. If you had a full group of 8 friends and the hypothetical 8th got lucky, you'd be in the exact same situation where the other 7 got nothing. It's just how Savage loot works, shrug it off and better luck next week.

I had to read that a few times. So you're mad that he rolled when he was posed to pass? I'm guessing based on the text that only you were posed to roll? If so then yeah, ouch. Gotta make sure you got all the directions and stuff on for you so things like that can't happen. :c

1m gil honestly is change
also quite honestly i rarely read pf descriptions apart from farm vs practice
hopefully you had him agree in actual chat -

Never trust people in PF.
If you forget to check duty complete and say !FARM! some oppurtunist will take advantage of it join get the clear and leave right after killing, prob taking the mount with him too.
If I was a shitty person and saw your PF I would think !!! just 1 person to roll against + no lootmaster i'd insta join :) -

What you should understand is that most people don't read the description. They just join the party. Maybe they didn't read it?
When I make a party, I put the strategies in the description and once we queue in, the first thing I get asked is are we using this or that strategy? I have to remind them of what the description said because they just don't read it.
I have asked who is flexing in P1S sometimes and then they just use the damage down strat or they all joined without knowing what flexing is. -

You know, for being a big fictive world that is supposed to be about being something and someone you can't be irl and forget about reality for a while, people sure do like to bring up how much they dislike other people a lot.
I'd rather see more threads discusssing the actual game, rather than "here is why I don't like X type of player" -

You are the one at fault here but that doesn't mean he is less guilty for being a dick.

I ran very stupid, trusting loot distribution principle we had ran before the SAM joining us. The same my former statics had used without problem.
"DPS > tanks/healers. Need if it is your BiS. Greed if it is stuff you want for alts, funsies or whatever."
As SAM he was entitled to pick stuff first. But it didn't stop when he had his BiS together. Extra chests, finally tank/healer upgrades, suspiciously "oops" accidental needs even after he was told "don't, please" more than once.
Naturally lootmaster fixed that. Till this day... don't really know if he was disingenuous or just dense.
I don't think lootmaster should be seen as attestation of unreasonable distrust. Just insurance that stuff goes as it should go.
