Eh? Where is this huge mass of posters who are saying that they are forced to save-scum for loot, or that they do save-scum for loot? I don't remember seeing dozens of different people making "I have to save-scum" posts, it just seems to be one poster who is making dozens of posts.
Well, there are two separate threads on the topic, along with conversations about it occurring in general chat, so that right there should tell you there's obviously more than "one poster". Feel free to go through them if you want to take the time, making note of any time someone acknowledges that they save-scum (even if only on occasion), or feel save-scumming needs to remain intact because of loot issues. I think you'll see it's more than one person. I'm only suggesting you research the tally (instead of me) since you're the one raising your question.
That said, I think you missed the point of my last post, which really wasn't about save-scumming specifically.
