The problem I have with loot systems is when there is also social pressure to pass loot to players who "need it more" for the "good of the raid". I call BS right there.

You want to have people passing loot, CODIFY IT IN THE RULES. None of this "Please sir, after you." "No I insist sir, after _you_" garbage. If it's part of the stated loot rules, great. Otherwise, it makes me a little less interested before.

At best, this is unfortunately covered by, "and of course the GL has the last word", meaning their buddy gets the loot.

(Yes this happened, no I wasn't involved as a loot candidate or officer or anything really.)
