Are you guys not reading?

I'm not saying I do this. I'm saying I would, if the RL had some lame rule about "1 piece of loot to keep thing fair people."

I'm saying this is a bad idea, and a /roll solves all these problems.

I don't really care what you think of me personally... honestly, I'm trying to give potential raid leaders tips on how to understand different people, and set rule accordingly that will keep a raid together instead of having it fall apart after the third wipe on death whisper.

The fact is, if you tell ANY person, after marrowgar, "Hey, I know you're not getting any loot, but please stick around anyway" they are more likely to drop than if they had a chance of loot. Not that they will every time, but every wipe brings them closer.

Don't believe me? Try this. Get a 25 man pug together, after Marrowgar, say in raid chat a few times, the people who won the items off Marrowgar will not be eligable for loot for the rest of the night. I guarantee you, those people are going to be some of the earlier ones to drop after the 4th wipe on deathwhisper.

I am trying to help raid leaders out here, not advocate the way I do things or think. I don't give a darn if anyone else plays like me or not. Play however you want to. But what I am doing, is trying to suggest ways to have success knowing that different people play different ways.

Downrate away. I think I'm winning the award for most downrating on wow.com right now.
