. . . if you are playing Multiplayer.
If you drop an item on the ground and you lag out, for any reason (disconnect, kick the cord, lightning strike, etc.) then the item is gone also.
At one time my connection was so bad (or was it just Battlenet?) that I made a point never to drop something I wasn't willing to lose. If Multiplayer, I'd advise you the same.
Fills up your inventory fast, but can save a lot of heartache.
Of course you can always backup characters, both single and multiplayer; that works too. Some don't view that as being quite kosher, however -- depending upon the circumstances when you use it.
