    You can't apply that kind of logic to a HUNTING GAME MECHANIC.

    HUNT = FINDERS KEEPERS.

    The FUN of the system is actually finding it, and KILLING IT. Not farming it like a freaking zombie army. Lost a mark, suck it up, move on the the next. simple.
    If you monopolize 100% of your girlfriend's time and don't let her talk to or be around other people which would be the appropriate way to share then you are doing the whole dating thing wrong. You can totally apply sharing to a MMO open world mechanic that literally everyone has the ability to equally benefit from if shared. Actually, it's probably the most basic and easy thing to share because if you do it correctly you don't lose anything by sharing, and end up benefiting more people who also don't lose anything.

No question about it.
    If you're upset about B ranks then you aren't even hunting right. B rank literally aren't even worth the effort since they can't drop logs, give 1/4 the credit of As and melt in 2 seconds to even small groups. Go for the big fish and you'll be rewarded

    I've never received the full reward for a hunt but I'm not an active hunter. I understand I can get a better chance at the full reward by joining a party and spamming medica or something, but that's a ridiculous way to play in my opinion when nobody needs heals. I would rather engage the enemy with a smaller group and enjoy playing in a more engaging way. You may think it's selfish but some players value actual gameplay over rewards for doing essentially nothing.
    Fates work the same way, blame SE for how they give you points not me.

    Now you finally made a point. You can share it and everyone can take profit from it.

    But now you must accept the other side of the coin, we are NOT obliged to share it, and by rightfully not doing it, I'm not greedy nor a bad person, because it's a freaking hunting game.

    And by the way, I play with many people in the game on a daily basis, just because my anger words directed to you because you still won't grasp a different side of the coin, even after a GM stated it, does not mean I'm a loner, that I don't belong here, only playing siingle players, because, that's discriminatory to say the least, for you to say something like that.

    Except there's a difference between not sharing your girlfriend (as in, love and you know what else), and invalidating her freedom.
    And obviously I was referring to the former, but you brought up the latter, for the sake of your flawed argument.

    And by the way, let us choose if B's are useless or not, for those of us who don't want to play the zombie-fest game, we enjoy killing B's without someone resseting it.

    Except in this case it's the zerg horde trying to monopolize every single mark, whether it's already claimed or not.

    There are a finite number of people that can get full credit for a mob because it takes doing a certain amount of damage to the mob to achieve full credit. Since mobs, y'know, actually die we can safely assume that they have a finite number of hit points. So no, this isn't a situation where "everyone" can receive full credit for each kill, especially on the lower rank mobs. B mobs die in seconds, barely enough time to get 2-3 attacks in.
