Raids: The Unwritten Rule?

[Zaft]

That's not what 'stealing' means...

If everybody agrees to it in chat (such as in /party, not in something like teamspeak) it is actually against the rules to steal it and you can be reported for it. This is why sale groups work the way they do (beyond word of mouth that "x group are scammers!").

Except that doesn't work if you're getting people via DF. Even if you queue as a premade group and agree on loot rules, but someone drops out and you replace them with a random from DF, you don't get to dictate your loot rules to them. Well, you can, but they can also tell you to cram it and they'll roll on what they want to.

Sounds like fair game to me, since nobody told you in advance.
Even if they did tell you, you don't necessarily need to agree to it. Though then you run the risk of simply being kicked for having a different playstyle.
