A disservice?

[Frag]

Still don't have a ton of time to post (hence why I've been missing in other threads I should be involved with), but your point about us finding Dex gear we can't make use of, and someone else finding Int gear they can't make use of and trading them bring up a good point. I feel that I'm not part of the Hardcore group. I'm part of the Lurker+ group. I don't need to keep up with them, or worry about their enjoyment, just ours. Hence why I pass out everything I can to our group and have avoided the AH, as it's about us to me. The general B.net crowd has been toxic since the beginning and things haven't improved overmuch with time. That being said, if you feel you're part of a larger community, I get it and can see that as a perspective rather than a absolute point.

The other reason I don't like it is the gear you're gaining in an average game is -5-9 levels behind you, whereas the gear we're buying is likely to be at or slightly behind our level, hence powering you up as the game isn't designed for you to be in the gear for your level, at least not yet.
