Default What would you do?

Listening in on chat channels over the weekend I heard an interesting argument. Since many of you are in raiding guilds, thought I'd see what the consensus opinion might be.

Scenario: You and 4 guildmates are running an instance. You need another and you pick up a random person. Its not a guild organized group, just a guild pickup group.

A very rare master drops that you know one of your guildmates, who is NOT in the group, could really use. It might even make your guild raids more successful. No one in the group is of the right class to need it, so its a FFA roll.

Do you:

a) click need

b) click greed

Apparently an infamous person on the server felt fully justified to click need because it was for a guildmate. Even the other 4 members of the group who were his guildmates, were upset. He dismissed them as greedy and continued to feel justified in ninja'ing the drop.

What do you think? This isn't meant to be a RAR, I was just curious if many other raiders feel that anything that makes your guild stronger is perfectly justified, no matter if you have to screw random-player over to do it. Is this guy a hero or a zero?

If they're not there, it goes greed. If someone in the guild wins it and THEN feels either a) compelled or b) required (depending on guild rules) to give/sell it to the guildmate in question, then props to them. But since it's a non guild group, 'needing' it if you can't use it is a no go.

Greed. You can't Need for a different person, only for yourself, IMO.
