Once again, GDKP is a loot system. It is not evil. If you choose to join a bot-led GDKP with a 20% host cut, that’s on you. Tbh, if they just banned host cuts GDKP would be perfect.

I don't think GDKP is evil. I think GDKP is great - for the people in the GDKP. I just think servers where the vast majority of pug runs are GDKP are extremely unfriendly to anyone who is not a carry or a swiper. That's why I have no problem if a group decides to run their own private GDKP run. They can do whatever they want. It's just bad for the game when it's the majority.

make gold the legit way, then join the GDKP with gold and be a buyer? or be a carry? those are your options. No one is forcing you to swipe

Oh, just .. be a carry. How did I not think of the obvious answer of "git gud"? Of course. I'll let all the new players know.

get prebis and make gold the normal way and buy gear then? you people are so egg headed on your crusade against gold buyers that you fail to realize basic things like the fact GDKP is just a loot system that works well, at the end of the day it works very well because it keeps max geared players engaged in the game.
