I agree that maybe I shouldn't have done this, but at the time I was really upset with the guy. Background story.
Got an assassin to a PUG for necrotic asylum thinking even though I knew he sucked how bad could it be? He might do 1.5-1.8k at the worst, right? Wrong, after 3.5 hours of dragging this guy through the zone, putting up with his 633 crap zw, his attempt to recruit me to his guild and his ninja afks, I decided to keep a decent item from him that dropped off the final boss.
This is the item I looted.
Here's the ensuing conversation I had with him. You can tell I lost it, but was trying to keep it PG.
Here are some portions out of my log file.

4 stars from me for decent evidence and flame.
My philosophy is when you group you have to earn your share of the loot. If you suck and hold the group back continuously you dont deserve the fabled loot at the end of it. I know this sounds quite harsh but put yourself in the same situation and I'm sure anyone here would be just as pissed off.
Worst assassin ever? Quite possibly...

Bravo on the successful and righteous cockblock.
Admittedly, you should all be banned from EQ2.
4 stars. shoulda directed him to the assassin forums so they can deal with him. raff out roud.

4 stars. That he didn't do very much dps wouldn't be the reason I'd want to keep it - maybe a decent bit of gear might help him. (I know I know, but let's play Devil's Advocate).
The reason I'd keep it and/or make certain that he didn't get it would be constant AFKs. If he's in there trying hard to help out, but might not be so uber ..well..maybe don't ask him again, but you can appreciate he's busting his ass to do the best (whatever that is) that he can.
If you guys are dragging his afk body through the zone, and his 633 DPS is because he was in on less than half the fights then..yeah, no fabled loot for him. His hurling 'fair' in your face just made me LoL.
I would have given it 5 stars, but had to fiddle with my font sizes so I could read the conversation in the screen shot. High marks for the proof though.

Ouch.
For a zonewide, all of those parses are pretty pathetic. The wizard is 6 dps over the 'shitty assassin' zonewide?
Did the wizard have their mythical? What were the classes of those who parsed higher? Did they have their mythical? I find it pretty disappointing to see loot taken away from someone who looks like they obviously need it to improve their dps![]()
