I am sure whatever you guys come up with work just fine. People need to realize no matter which method you go with, SOME people will always feel cheated/neglected/skipped whatever.
The only things I have personally been apart of in this game is/was;
Loot Council~ Consisted of 5-7 People who would vote regarding recent loot gained, attendance, attitude, skill. Worked fine most of the time. Long process per boss during new content.
Ropetowns DKP~ I came late into the content with most if not all loot drops my class needed for mainspec, so I honestly never really saw how it works. But seems speedy and accurate.
I noticed almost everyone is -DKP...why or how this is I don't understand but again not really worried about how loot goes out.
My only suggestion is the suicide list for tokens. Tanks should get priority (if everyone feels they need it also to handle the content) but with that said blizz also said bosses wont be 2 shotting tanks if they get no heals, and wont one shot raid members for the most part. More or less people will be dying to avoidable damage, and other omg don't stand there mechanics. I digress, Suicide list how it was, was annoying how person A could stay at the number one slot even tho they went afk for weeks. They come back for a Tuesday raid 3 weeks later and get a token instantly. My suggestion would be to do a list like this.
Conq token
1.Shaladen
2.VX
3.Cruel
4.Verty
5.Flay
so on and so on
Shaladen misses a token drop. (afk, rl, power out, dog ate my internet, whatever)
VX receives token.
1. Cruel
2. Shal
3. Verty
4. Flay
5. BCJ
so on and so on
So maybe something like every token you are away for you get skipped, plus drop 1 rank.
TL;DR
Every token drop a person is absent for they obviously get skipped. But also drop down 1 position.
I liked the other system where you simply dont gain rank in the suicide list if you're away. So, if you got to #1, you stay at #1 if you miss raids. But, you cant get your #1 drop, get put to the end of the list, then afk for 2 months and come back and be at #1 cuz everyone else in the list got their's too.
I dont want to be penalized if I make every single raid except for the one it actually drops on. I think you should just be penalized in general for missing a raid by simply not gaining rank in the suicide list. I mean, you dont gain dkp either if you're gone... why should you gain suicide rank too?
Also, the main reason we need to change dkp potentially is the standard "everyone that whores is useless until their shit drops" argument. I think other than that it's fine.
I would have bought like 8 things and been mega useful by the time we ACTUALLY got the first heroic DFO to drop. Bliz is partly at fault for making a single slot both rare and rediculously overpowered, requiring me to whore my dkp if I want it. And most dungeons wont exist for 11 months straight where we can guarantee everyone will eventually get one. I don't like whoring but blizzard requires it; I think if we can come up with a system that either fixes it or mitigates it then we will be better off as a guild. The entire point is to improve the guild by getting loot (instead of passing it) so we can get world 1st's or whatever as opposed to... not.
