    I don't really understand the whole 'moral' arguement either. Even if you try to argue that it's two players trying to get eachother to play the way the other wants (BLM Who wants in but can't because he wants body vs. Black mage who made the party), this still comes out as a moral-wash in the end because it's really just opinion vs. opinion.

    I can't help but wonder if it's just a bunch of Black Mages / classes that are getting locked out that feel this way. I watched for a week as I saw every 'farm' party lead by a BLM either having it explicitely stated 'Caster body locked', or they just didn't allow Black Mages / Summoners to join. My solution was simply to do much the same - make my own party, and lead it myself so I could get my own piece of gear.

    thats to much for alot of the folks around here

    they would rather hold hands and sing koombaya while SE showered them with echo tainted loot

    they call it "fairness"

    i call it socialism

    I always see T2 parties with either full caster or single caster, a lot of caster gear drops from T2 so it's understandable why someone would be upset - but it doesn't really merit "harassment". They are more than free to start their own PF group with their own rules, so it's just silly to argue or debate with someone about it. Just move on lol

    The only gray area I see, and don't really understand if this was the case or not - if you started a Greed only party but you were the only one that "needed" something, in effect exempting yourself from the rest of the party rules. I don't know if that's "against the rules" per se, but it would be quite unethical.

    Nah, I only made a N>G party where I only locked the caster body piece (The last piece I needed), so any job joining could get their piece too. I didn't roll on anything else because - to be quite honest - I have everything from T2 'cept the Healer neck.

    Edit-in: I also went as black mage, and locked the other slots for non-casters to prevent ninja-looting. However, I invited a summoner who only needed the boots when they sent me a tell.
