Seems mean to me (stop what you're doing, hoof it halfway across the zone, risk repair cost if something goes wrong and it's a wipe), but it's at least clear. I owe him an apology then.

I rarely do the summons with PUGs, but the few times I have it depends on which one we are summoning. The Lesser Wind Stones just require the set, and usually just 2-3 people to beat, for these I just use the standard Need before Greed rules.
For the normal and greater wind stones if loot drops that somone needs they are free to get a roll on it, if it ends up as a greed roll I take it to cover the cost of summoning the boss (usually a few shards + crests). Alternativly I let people provide some gold and let them take part in a gree roll.
99.99% of the time all summons are done with the guild where none of this is an issue as everyone chips in on gathering sets and other items, so rewards are shared evenly as well.
As long as the rules are known upfront it shouldn't matter though.
