Ninja - Shafted by Blizz GMs

Players will often report to our In-Game Assistance department the unfortunate circumstance of becoming a victim to what is commonly referred to as "ninja looting." While we do not condone or support such methods, we regret to inform the victims of this exercise that we will be unable to assist with cases of ninja looting under any means. The reason for this is primarily due to the fact that we feel there are several safe guards in the game to prevent successful ninja looting.

It is important to group with players one feels he/she can trust whenever possible. It is equally as important to trust the party/raid leader to choose the most appropriate looting method to prevent instances of ninja looting. For example, master looting should only be condoned and utilized if the leader of the party/raid can be wholly trusted by those within the party/raid. Along the same lines, free-for-all looting should only be used if all members of the party/raid are considered trustworthy. Looting is maintained at the risk of those within a group. If items are mislooted or ninja looted, the In-Game Assistance department will be unable to intervene under any circumstances.

As stated in our Scam Policy: (http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_US&articleId=20459):

I grouped with a "ninja-looter," can I get the item that I am entitled to returned?

Players that loot an item out of turn or against the group's wishes do not meet the criteria for scamming, and will not be investigated by the GM Staff.

Granted there are times when the situation does fall under a “Scam” and is not a case of "ninja looting." These situations will be investigated if there is enough evidence to support the claim, and any action given will be based off of our Scam Policy.
