I hate the change - I trust the people I hunt with to use a similar-weapon (damage wise to me) and they trust me - the old settings suited me fine. I have only had one occassion where someone tried to scam the team and then I/ we didn't hunt with that person again.
You have effective social mechanisms in place which regulate the process of team hunting - these have evolved around the choice provided. My view is that by changing the choice without consultation you have disrupted the social systems which made team hunting work.
Please give the players back the choice to choose how they want the loot distributing.
Putting IT resources into elements of the game that damage it (like dealing with the players running farms of AFK auto-clickers to sell skills, Bot users in game (sorry Bertha)) would be a better investment in resource than changing loot distribution rules that was generally seen as working effectively.
