rofl is that how you justify your indecent behaviour?When someone solo queues for LFR, for all they know, there are 24 other robots in the instance with them, and they are rolling against the computer.

Words to live by.
Lol, even then when a rare drops (and they have in LFR), if someone needs on it, there are always a few retards who call them out for a vote kick. Same with epics. I saw someone vote kicked because they needed and won a trash world epic in MSV LFR. Just plain petty and pathetic.
oh yeah and @Constellation:
You keep assuming that the behavior of needing on greens is coming from me. You fail to read, and if you continue to gloss over any of the facts as they have been presented (that I am speaking about the practice of vote kicking for this), then you need a reality check in reading comprehension / logic.
i haven't seen any1 in lfr wait till every1 clicked greed on a item to hit need they do that as soon as the option to roll appears

unfortunaly hteres now soch a ting as transmog, tho some people still need on everything
---------- Post added 2013-02-25 at 04:24 PM ----------
highly doubt that and there may be no way to know unless people use /loot who else needed on the item
i dnt like the greedy pricks who need on every green or blue that drops in LFR, but i neither care enough too bother kicking them.
i even most often pass the vote too kick on such cases. its just a green, he might be a greedy prick too need it for a few gold but im not gonna kick him over that.
imo the guy that pressed need was probably a missclicked on his behalf
We tend to run it as a group (for the sake of our sanity), and kick anyone who complains about others needing on greens and lockboxes.
Odds are, the people complaining also clicked need but didn't win.
In the beginning of your post, it started to sound pretty good. To use your wording, "Logical." By the second paragraph however when you started to refer to everyone else as potential robots, it started to hit me. I wont go as far as to say "most" but there are a shit ton of players that have this exact same mentality. They need on things they dont need, they play selfishly, they don't add to the "teamwork" of a group outside of their specific queued role. It's just like they're in this alone and could give a fuck less about the other 4-9-24-39 people.
That much was common sense, but when I kept reading and I realize it's gotten so bad that they actually think players taking group actions against their selfishness is actually selfish, that's when I kind of lose it. I stare at it like "this can't be real. He's got to realize how absurd that sounds and must be screwing with us or playing the extreme devil's advocate here. There's no WAY he actually thinks their group action towards his fuck-up is selfish."
Then I stop and realize how overwhelming the number of players who feel this way probably is. I think about the communities from older MMOs like FFXI and Everquest are long dead. I realize that logging into an MMORPG these days is almost no different from signing in to play a couple matches in halo. It's not even a genre anymore, it's instant gratification on the same tier as mobile games and online FPS. It's an addiction depended on by the epitome of the socially inept.
There's no logic in your statement, it's glorified opinion with a self appointed title, talking down to those who reply to you like they're having trouble grasping your wisdom. I can't speak for anyone else, but trust me, I understood your point of view 24 pages ago, I was just having trouble believing it was sincere.

Bind the item of any and all "Need" rolls on BoE items in LFR to the person that rolled need on it. I had an idiot of a pally roll need on a 440 rare agility neck.

People need roll on the items to take the gold, and they do it because they know enough people don't care, and will complain more about the people who call out someone needing on greens than the actual person needing.
Blizzard needs to just remove the need button from max level dungeons for items that don't have a primary stat you can use, and all green boes.
I kick players that need on greens regularly; i don't care about greens, but lockboxes the players get at least on my ignore list: as a healer i already have instant-invites, and if a player is on the ignore-list, at least he will have longer queue-times.
People that needs on greens are anti-social and will always not play right: the one that needs on everything sucks mostly in dps or heal.
What you may not be grasping is that people do actually feel this way though. People play the "raid" game in LFR as a single player experience that is helped by 24 other robots in the raid. There very may well be 24 real life people sitting behind a monitor and keyboard that is in that digital world, but to the person who is single player minded and does everything in game solo, they are not real people.
So why should you be upset with an ignorant player? Why should you care so much about the act of needing on such an insignificant thing such as a green that you have to go to lengths to boot them from raid?
Me as a player, acknowledging that there are 24 other people there, CAN STILL SHRUG OFF THIS BEHAVIOR, because guess what, IT IS INSIGNIFICANT. It is petty behavior, that of a child who causes an uproar about silly, trivial things.
This is not real life, no matter how much you want it to be. No matter how much you want to escape from real life, and pretend that a game is your new life.. Reality check: its not. Treat the game like a game. Treat it what it is, and dont let the actions of other random people on the internet affect you in such a way to destroy your fun for the night.
Booting someone from an LFR raid for that action is like a little kid feeling upset that he only got one scoop of icecream instead of two.
