passing loot in chest

[ripperj]

Just finished a VoD, and a fighter and I get the gloves, so ok, we don't need them.
The gloves go up for roll and the fighter passes his first, then leaves. The thing was, he passed it to a guy that
was no longer in the group, let alone the quest. So you know, we all thought that was lame, in my mind I'm thinkin
'how do you screw that up'

So then my gloves are left, and me thinkin 'im not gonna make the same mistake' carefully select the right name on the
list, feeling pretty pleased with myself and recall out. Then the group starts saying that the guy who got the first pair
ALSO had the second assigned to him.

....huh?

I specifically took my time choosing the name from the list, waited for it to get highlighted, then clicked.
It's just soo odd. Is it a bug? Has this happened to anyone else?

and no, it wasn't a misclick, how the hell do two people misclick and select the same name, that also happened to be a person not even in the group anymore? the odds are slim.

I've had it happen, but it seems like It was my own fault, not sure i've ever experienced a bug with the in chest passing or anything.

your loot is your loot. If you want to pass it to someone that already left party and can no longer loot it, its your loot to do as u please with... dont let anyone tell you different

I think people are misunderstanding this thread. This has got to do with the UI bug of re-assigning loot to others. Usually this happens on the first click of the loot, and sometimes loot might be assigned wrongly (due to wrong window co-ordinates?). To prevent this problem, click on the drop-down box arrow and then close it (click on the arrow again). Then re-assign as per normal.

Had this happen to me once a long time ago as well. Nigh-positive I selected the right person and then watched as it went to someone else (who had already recalled). PITA.. least it is rare though.
