Just to clear up something from the original post by Chris - are orbs/gems/scrolls FFA or timered?
Timered

My only complaint is:
The name who was SUPPOSED to get that item disappears after the timer runs out.
If we want to run a "Fair loot" system, the tools are already there, could you just leave the name tag associated with the item even after the timer runs out?

Not meant to be that. It is meant for people with ping/fps issues to at least be able to grab something within the FFA environment. If you miss grabbing an item before the timer it becomes fair game to anyone in the party. Most people are delusioned that the allocation is to call out drops for players when that isn't the case.
If that was the case the timer wouldn't exist and other players would not be able to grab the loot.
Everyone is bitching about something that it isn't meant to be in the first place.
Not that I oppose balanced options, but currently that is the state of the game.

Correct, but it is generally a good idea to give player choice/freedom of choice.

The amount of ignoring from GGG going on in this particular thread is staggering, especially compared to how they approach everything else. And this is by far the loudest "feature" discussion.

Its because instanced loot is not important. Think about it....
You have the option to play alone or team up with friends/like minded players to farm. Actually, farming alone is always the best option.
The only real reason to ally with random public players is for fun and exp. Swarming over loot like rabid vultures is all part of the fun.
When playing pub games you should expect nothing. Lower the bar and you will seldom be disapointed.

2) - aim at the loot and not at the mobs , I know sound weird.....but what to do ?....or u busy aiming and killing mobs or u go for the loot , this is not ur fault .....is just a poor loot system design.
Honestly ... .....I grab everything I can without caring if was on my name or not.....
Yes, you´re right and just can´t understand why a game should encourage scumbag behavior.

Try reading all of the nearly 600 pages of this thread. They didn't ignore it. They've just already said all there is to say for now. I hope they're planning on some more options myself but I think they made it pretty clear something like 400 pages ago that they're done with it for now. I don't think they're ignoring it even now but it's not like anyone has said anything new for at least 300 pages.
Edit: Yes, those page counts are WAGs.
POE Serenity Prayer: GGG, grant me the serenity to accept the RNG I cannot change,
the courage to challenge any unbalanced content, and the wisdom to avoid the forums.
