What does it mean to be a Llama?

Well apparently it means that NM Loot is only yours while it can benifit the LS
This is how i felt when I was asked to give up my barbarian's bardiche because i intend to take a hiatus from the game.

I have been honest and loyal to the LS since i joined and feel like ive earned the items i have and well my question is is it even proper for a linkshell leader to make such a request?
