There's a part of me that wants to endorse the "only gear for jobs in the party drops" idea, then there's part of me that thinks, well I have all 50s and so does alot of my coil group. I'd hate to have to see us all run on every job to get geared. It would get a little trying making party builds that work for our whole group.

I've been hoping since early in 1.0 for content that really encourages LSes (before FCs existed) to be more unified. I really thought we were going to get that, but so far it hasn't happened. Your spot on though there is little reason to be loyal to a group, getting PUGs to do content actually tends to work out better for people's schedules so why wait for an FC/LS run.
