Camp stolen at Fort in BW

[Velmier]

Had a 60 monk named Violint <Bone Diddlies> take our camp at the fort in Burning Wood. Is there anything that can be done on this server to keep this from happening? Made a petition but got no response, not sure it that even works here.

The GMs enforce camp rules very strictly, unless your playing at some weird off hour you will typically get a response quickly. Quite honestly I don't hear of anyone but bards swarm kiting in burning woods. You had a group XPing and then a 60 monk decided to come XP in the same place? Something doesn't seem to be adding up....

[magician]

plenty of things you could do

join red is one of them

do you want me to call the beta cuck protection services for you?

[Velmier]

Happened last night around 11pm CST, not sure if that is considered off hour. The monk took the camp so he could power level someone.

He justified his actions by saying that since there were a couple of giants up when he arrived that we couldn't keep up with the spawn and therefore didn't own the camp. Guess he is ignorant of the term respawn. Karma kicked in shortly after they arrived and the rogue he was power leveling got killed.

Main reason for this post was to verify that petition works on this server, because I never got a response.

@OP Setup a video recording program. Then submit the video in a petition on the forums.
Petitioning in game is a good idea. Even if you don't get a response.

[Baler]

Oh and when you do submit a petition on the forums don't bump it and don't make a separate thread in RnF or any other section about it.

Give as much detail as possible and provide information such as what time it took place.
Adding your log file may help too, but that can be faked so its not evidence enough alone.

Fraps is fucking dog shit. If you're using fraps you're a idiot. (not calling you a idiot burkemi, just anyone who still uses fraps)
There are far better options now-a-days for video recording. Some of which even offer the ability to record the X amount of time and save that. Rather then saving gigs and gigs of video footage.

And another things,. fraps codec is good quality but it eats up huge amounts of space. There are excellent options for high quality compressed video codecs.

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

protip: FRAPs has a buffer option

protip: FRAPs has a buffer option

Yes it does,. So to other programs that can use custom codecs with adjustable settings, framerate and more.
Fraps is 90's Just because this is a 1999 server doesn't mean you have to use a recording program from that era.

Excellent video for anyone who wants some basic education on video recording now-a-days. Using certain popular video recording programs.

It also gives real visual proof why fraps is dog shit now-a-days.

I use an old fashioned kitchen timer for camp spawns. I receive batphone texts on a shitty flip phone. I run fraps. But then I also don't give a fuck. Next time someone steals your camp, pity them and move on. The more exchanges you have with them, the more of a jaded minmaxer you're bound to become. Game's fun when you don't try so hard and you can take a step back and laugh at it all. It's just pixels.

[Lifebar]

In my experience petitioning works great if there's a guide on, but I'm pretty sure they don't have set hours and that they all have RL jobs etc.

If you had a full group and he was solo to PL just start pulling like fucking maniacs and leave so few mobs up for him that it ends up not being worth his time to try to PL @ that camp. He'll piss all over the front of his clothes and threaten you because he knows Rogean personally and he'll tell you the rules and how your wrong. JUST PULL FASTER.

Worst case, he actually does petition and the guide either laughs at him or makes you guys split the camp. Just don't actually train them or get them killed and you'll win and have a clean whistle.

Also, hi Ennewi! <3

[Valura]

y would u steal that camp

[Stormfists]

Just roll up 300 mobs and dump them on his rogue.

In the wise benevolent words of Sirken:

"Dude, me love trains. Everyone gets one for free. Choo choo!".

[maskedmelon]

Yep, OP should have tried red for sure. If he had a full group on at the giant fort, there wouldn't have been anyone else to actually steal the camp.

I hope he PM'd you a thank you note.

We still have warders too.

He will after he tries. Thanks for your concern. Maybe you should try red.
