    Ok for the ones who say make your own PF group. That doesn't help anything because again there is nothing in the way to stop the person from still needing even if they don't need. I do understand people would like glamour thats fine, but there is nothing to change my mind in thinking that glamour should be on a greed basis and not need. You don't NEED to glamour your gear, but you do NEED better gear in order to progress through the game. And no i do not feel entitled to anything if anything it seems a lot of you feel more entitled to take stuff you really won't need from someone who does it to progress through the game, and help later groups. Now you want to argue the fact that said person can use the item for months with glamour. Well so can the actual person who needs it so that argument is mute. What happened to people willing to help out those less fortunate then others. If a person actually needs the piece and is going to use the piece to further his progression then why take it away from him. Just so you can glamour it for aesthetic purposes that doesn't do anything to help the party. Our community seems to be going down hill, and for those of you who do things like that. All your doing is discouraging newer players, and making the community look worse. But the whole make a PF for it is the dumbest idea ever seeing as how there is nothing to stop a person from still needing it. Now maybe the ilvl system I came up with may not be a good idea, but I still think something should be done. And again no I do not feel entitled to anything, I honestly think doing something like that is morally wrong, and its not something I would do to another person. Not for something as silly as glamour that doesn't help or contribute to the party in any shape or form.

    you can report them if you had a verbal agreement in the pf or chat about loots. so yes there's something in the way to stop them from needing things you want when you form a party in pf.

    and again, something that might seem silly to you might mean more to someone else.

    Have you tried it yet ? and then they ninja'ed your gear even after you set a rule ? do you think 90%+ people that will join planing to break the PFs rule and steal the gear? wtf just for ilvl 90 ? even 5 month ago when ilvl 90 still worth it. I rarely found people who will broke the PF rule (only found 2 report from my LS until now). mostly even got BL by some FC and LS.

If you can't deal with RNG not working out in your favor don't play with randoms.
    yeah so true

    The world not only about sympathy to each other good sir. They are also sacrificing their time and maybe even sacrificing more thing than you. Yes peoples should help victims of natural disasters. But how about "random" people in the street should we give them our money just because they "need" more money to buy a car ? you will ? GL
