Please implement a notification for the type of lot party members cast on an item.

Even though 'need' roles could be ninja attempts (depending on the rules set forth by the party), there's really not much you can do about it. I mean, so you see a guy rolled need on an item. Oh no, he's a ninja! But what are you going to do about it?

My suggestion would eliminate situations where people lot on something they aren't supposed to and then claim that it was accidental; you could simply wait for everyone that's not supposed to lot to pass first (which would be seen by everyone in party), or have the party leader lot last, etc. It's not foolproof, but would put a lot more social pressure on "accidental" ninja lots.

Also, as far as SE is concerned, ninjaing doesn't 'exist'. If you complain about someone ninjaing an item, they didn't technically do anything wrong according to SE's rules of need/greed.

My understanding is that ninjalotting can be reported, and (after log investigation) GMs will remove the ninjaed item from the offender's inventory.

While we're discussing this, an option to pass after you've already rolled need or greed would be nice.

I would be in favor of this, as well.

I don't want to take something I don't need if someone else in the group may have a real use for it, but I hate to see valuable items go uncollected because nobody had a direct use for it. To solve this, I think we need a fourth category in the Need/Greed/Pass setup.

I'm not sure if this solution already exists, but all they would need to fix your issue would be to have unlotted items drop to people who didn't click Pass. Then you would have the following 4 categories:

1) Need
2) Greed
3) (didn't pass)
4) Pass

Items would only hit the floor if everyone actually passed.
