| Honestly, as far as I'm concerned; officer-awarded loot is the way to do it. But this presumes that the officers in your guild don't suck and can be unbiased.
The reason that this need isn't really an argument against officer-rewarded loot is that if your officers suck, you're not going very far as a guild anyway.
DKP rewards one thing; attendance. While attendance is a good and happy thing, I can recall numerous people in my EQ guilds who were at every raid, but were basically useless when they were there (ironically, several of them were rangers, but that's neither here nor there).
I just think that officer-awarded loot has a better chance of getting loot into the hands of people that are actually going to help the guild advance.
As long as you do it in a fair way, and officers are willing to explain in private WHY something was awarded the way it was, I think officer-awarded is the loot system to use. |
