"Need" should check ilevel

[Worm]

Appeal to authority and back pedaling to act like anyone was just defending vanity alone, you're defending any kind of spiteful needing. So we've went from "Everything is relative", "That's like just your opinion", and finally "Square wants me to need on vanity gear". These are actually getting worse not better, you know that right?

Every argument you make and the entire mindset you sponsor is one where anyone can roll need on any piece of gear for any reason. Hey if SE didn't want me to need on all these items and turn them into GC Seals why can I? Hey if SE didn't want me to roll on gear and discard it to spite another player why can I? It's just nonsense.

Look no one is required to do anything, I think we know that. Though do you really think needing on gear for seals or to just discard out of spite can't be called 'bad'? You guys were the ones who (after tons of out of the box thinking) went with the premise of "any time you roll need on gear it's perfectly okay no matter why you want it", I can't blame you for wanting to back off that premise, but you have to move your argument somewhere else and "Square wants me to roll need for vanity" is just silly.

edit: I mean what Square says really is very off base since we're not even talking about specific examples, we're talking in general. I mean what are you implying? That it's not okay to roll need for vanity on the gear that SE didn't make with vanity in mind? All that gear is made with vanity in mind just as much as any other gear in any other game. This is completely beside the point. I'm saying there are times when you shouldn't need you're saying there aren't times when you shouldn't need, except with a pre-formed group with pre-stated loot rules. That's all there is here.
