Subject: RE: [eqbards] Loot Rights Question


I totally agree with Atonal that the "twinked" enchanter shouldn't get the
robe, or even get to roll for the robe. Two people playing 4 characters is
a little ridiculous to me, especially on any serious raid. For one of those
people to be the guild leader makes me shudder.

I would have made the same decision had I been in your shoes Brilinnia. I
hope your guildleader hopefully has learned a lesson from this incident and
that your guild can continue to travel the breadth of Norrath in camaraderie.
