syndi looting/looter.

syndi comes from the word "syndicate" and we know that by lore the syndicate is involved in dirty dealings, and loot ninja are dirty as well. For example the players kicking for CT loot.

Why do you need another term for ninja looting?

Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong

Where the weak are finally strong
Where the righteous right the wrongs
Still looking for a home

It's best to keep things simple. A lot of people will have no idea what you're on about, whilst the term 'ninja' is used across numerous MMO's to describe someone who steals loot directly or indirectly.

I've never heard that term in SWTOR.  Everyone I know calls them ninja looters.  >.>  Same in Rift.

I don't think FFXIV needs its own unique hist on the term, but if there was some law forcing us to do that, I'd use "qiqirn looters".
