Hi I was directed to this article from a guildie today. I am one of the GL's who developed WarcraftNinjas.com and after reading a fe wof the comments posted here do wanted to addres a few issues.

1) Blizzard does NOT beleive ninja looting or "looting out of turn" exists. They cleaerly state that when Master Looter is applied the Master Looter is given the right to distribute loot as that person sees fit so those of you who think Master Looter in PuGs is the way to go are 100% wrong. Having said that Blizzard does state that if you make the ML state the loot rules prior to the raid and they violate them it becomes a scam and THAT can be reported. Reporting ninjas is useless unless the loot rules are stated first.

2) From some of the comments it seems that alot of you seem to not have run into ninjas who loot everything to themselves just to vendor it. Yes, it does happen.

3) We use blacklist for the most part on Jubei it si a great add on everyone should use :).

My suggestion on the Suggestion Forums was for Blizzard to change the LFG/LFM system where Raid Leaders have to check off what the loot rules will be while recruiting PuGs. This way if something is ninja looting it falls into the scam area and that person can be reported.

So far as the skydiver comparison....well if chute doesn't deploy, well that is the craptastic (dead I know :)) feeling people who won after taking FULL part in the raid feel when their loot is taken or looted to a friend.
