They should flag chests as it is annoying. At least for 10 minutes, that way it can unflag in sync with the mob respawn to be fair.

Anytime I need something that someone just looted I offer to buy it from them. More often than not they will simply give it to me for free. I do the same.

There are 2 ends to the 'loot for yourself' stick however. Enchanters can easily 'need' anything magical, and some of 'em therefore have the balls to ask anyone for any magical item that you cannot use when it drops in a team. If you refuse, then the usual response is 'But you can't use it'. But what pisses me off is they can't *use* it either. Yes, they can disenchant it and that allows them to rocket ahead and up their skill points X times the amount of people in a team but what about the rest of us? Magical items are the fastest way to make money as they always sell for silver at least. I can then go and buy some new trade skills with my newfound cash, thus upping my skills to at least try to catch up to a like-lvl enchanter. Skills do cost money and I think many people fail to see the big picture and act selfishly often. Good thing is as you get higher in level much of this crap fades off.
