I arrive at GEBS camp wanting to get some boots.
Bob is there camping it and I sit down to wait. I ask to join Bobs group but he says no, so I make it clear I am camping the spawn after him. After a while Carl, a guildmate of Bob arrives. Bob gets his GEBS drop and leaves. Carl tells me Bob gave him the spawn and that I don’t have the right to camp for my GEBS.
Is Carl in the right?

Whom ever is 'legally' camping a 'legal' camp. Can pass it to whom ever they want.

I'd feel like a dirty fuck if I ignored someone sitting there waiting for the camp. Guess that's just me?

this is why the list system exists for legacy items, this is part of the general rules, but exceptions are being made for the items that rotate out.

Naw i'd feel dirty passing it over someone waiting at the camp too. Trust me when I say, if you're honest. you're one of the good ones.
Yes, Carl is in the right.
You could be a little more tactful next time, rather than 'making it clear [your] taking the camp after him'. Which I'm kinda translating into you being mad that he said you couldn't join, so you told him off a bit.

This is why pvp server is 1000x better. Obviously permacamping a mob so easy is lame city. My skin is crawling just thinking about this situation.

This is the truth. The ability to take what ever camp you want is amazing.

I realize I'm the new guy on the server and I'm sure you guys have been establishing these rules for 10 years and all, but...

edit: weird, I can't see the image even though it's on imgur, just pretend you see the "You're not wrong..." meme!

I think lists are bullshit and you should have to sit your ass at camp if you want to be next...
Current blue rule-set allows for passing camps to whoever you want as long as you don't lie about list order.

Wasn't backing down, was just recognizing 10 years of what I'm sure has been 'colorful history'.
I can honestly see both sides, but the dudes waiting, give him the camp... (unless he was being a dick).
I'm the kind of guy that would just go somewhere else. I hate conrfontations and this is supposed to be fun!

Agree 100%; the p99 devs should just give up on the bluebie nonsense and make all their servers pvp.

Agreed. One day.
I can't imagine what jboots camp looks like on blue. My skin is crawling. There's some cartel of dudes permacamping the AC spawn..like yikes.

You guys talking about pvp. Do you really not just run into might makes right situations? That doesn't seem any better.

better might than the ability to sit at your computer for 36 hours straight. if you lose a fight over a camp at least you didn't waste your day over it and know to go do something else for a while until you can try again.

Let it be known that I shall only yield my camps to the fellow sons of Father Erud.
Praise be to Prexuz.

It is entirely better. You are given choice. Try to join the camp ( most of the time people I met wanted to join for xp, and let me have the loot I wanted ) leave the zone, or try to win the camp ( Yes you can create rivals this way, but that is fun )

So wasn't there a set of guidelines (rules?) about the person holding a camp having to identify the next in line when asked? And if that person wasn't present when the item dropped, the person holding the camp would have to give up said camp?

No no, not negatively like that. Just saying trike “I see you have the camp. I’d like to camp after you when you’re done please.” And Bob just being a bit of a touché and giving it to Carl without saying anything once he was done.
Like, tried to join he group and Bob saying no, then Bob saying no you can’t have the camp next I’m going to give it to my friend who isn’t even here and started waiting after you did.
I wanted to learn if Bob was allowed to do that
This hasn’t happened in game it is a hypothetical fictional scenario, I just wants to know if the people who poopsock are gonna be able to indefinitely hold the camps over ya regular people and just pass t among their guildies. Sounds like they are which is a shitty deal

I've been in ABC groups in Sebilis where we clear an entire room and a level 60 Shaman strolls by and steals the named Chef spawn.
Sadly that's the reality of the environment of open world sandbox MMOs. Just put those people on your shitlist, tell your friends to update THEIR shitlists and carry on.

and this is why Red is superior. You just kill Bob and take the camp. Might makes right.
