Too often this forum and other sites are ablaze with anger and frustration over loot.
In Raidfinder this week a tank rolled need on pants but already had them.
He and his friends started to act high mighty and rude to anyone who asked why.
He said its his right to roll for his offspec, and blizz says its his right because he CAN hit the button need.
Why is it that in wow and the other mmo's that clone from it
We give 4 items of loot out in a group of 25?
Is it that we need a reason to return? To that id say well if the dungeon is truly fun people will return.
Is it that we need that random roll to get some kind of high when we complete a 2 or 4 set?
What i propose is this:
Total overhaul of the loot system as a whole:
Every boss has a loot table still a list of things he drops.
But now its all boe, And each raider gets 1 random item from him.
You wont win all your loot for your class and spec in one week, so to the people who want us to take longer for some reason its still a good system.
You promote trading items and forming a community on your server, you will thank and remember the guy who sold you your last item for your set, in exchange for one of his that you had.
You might roll an alt and put these items on but most people will take advantage of selling it on an AH since its boe, so its not a big issue. And its your alt if you want to gear it why not?

In response to somone on the official forum.
Who suggested that ppl would gear 5x faster and sell all the items for pennies on the AH
is there a problem with people sharing loot with other people?
As i said only a small number will sell it.
And a small number will use it on alts.
What if instead we had it that you can share loot inside the dungeon only then when its over its bound to you.
We do allow trading for an hour at the moment but this is under a system that gives out 4 items.
Say 25 people get 1 item each thats 25 items now the paladin gets some healer shield he could use but is not holy so he gives it to the shaman who got a lock item, the lock gets the item he needs the shaman gets an item he needs and the paly gets something.
They also make a sort of friendship.
EDIT
Just Wanted to Add this.
Has no one considered that the Loot system is flawed when ppl offer loot runs for real money and tons of gold?
