Just an idea for smuggler in which system messages for loot are not displayed to group members. I think this is in keeping with the overall idea for smuggler. A little for them, a little for me. I can imagine the moral dilemmas that would ensue lol. "Should I tell them I just looted a legendary item?" Anyway, just an idea.

If I looted a legendary weapon I would let every single person I see know about it multiple times lol

But, to play devil's advocate: Why would someone "gimp" themself by getting Master Smuggler to ninja loot. IF I looted something legendary, I wouldn't want others to know about it, I'd rather have it be a surprise, especiallywhen they get killed by it (Imperials.... /wink). Maybe a message: "Willbur Wright looted an item from the copse of a Tusken Chief." to prevent the nijna looting.

This will never happen, ninja looting is something that we don't need to encourage. Let's focus on how to be smugglers not thiefs

They're nunas that wear cute little black outfits and creep about in the dark, waiting to assail various vendors by throwing chairs through windows and making off with loudspeakers and broken macrobinoculars. Devious little creatures, those Nuna Ninjas are.

To put it simply, it's a term derived from other MMO's (EQ, UO, etc) where someone loots a corpse on the sly, having neither permission of the other parties involved, nor informed them of the looted item(s). While this isn't really a problem in SWG due to the looting system in place, in other games such as EQ where items are tagged NODROP (can't be dropped, traded, or sold) and corpses that sat for more than 2 minutes could be looted by anyone, if someone were to sneak and loot an important ND quest item (ninja-loot), it more often than not screwed someone else... badly.
