As the server rules only indicate this is considered tasteless for raids, this honestly should be added in for group situations as well. This sever seriously lacks and promotes less than zero etiquette for limp wrist dumb fucks.

Why would that do any good? Nobody listens to it when it comes to raids either.

Faster? When you're already in a camp, cleared out all the see invis npc's that would otherwise inhibit these people from running past and ganking shit...it's not about going faster. Back to the OP... show some fucking etiquette! Yeah we saw you trying to be sneaky being invised, and just made a direct line to the target. We called all camp checks, and were clearing each npc at a time, like any other camp in the game does.

I find this server funny as ever, prime example is crypt camp in OS back on live servers. If you had crypt, you also had emp camp. You never saw another group climb down the zone and just chill at that side of what should be considered one camp. This garbage rule of "you have to be standing on or in the direct room" is dumb and promotes people being dicks to one another. Which leads to GM's complaining about everyone else complaining.

So you weren't in the camp , but you were calling camp check for that camp ? Then someone beat you to the camp you were clearing too, and your mad ?

Fuck I'm easily confused.

It takes mad skills to run into a room while the other party is dealing with the mobs that are between you and the room, bro.

To elaborate on the griefing concept of what is a camp and where the border line ends...there is a simple distinction of if you're in the area, actively clearing said area, and being vocal of your presence in again said area...why be a douche and pull some homo tactic?

We were in fact in the next room over, but when the adjacent rooms(three of them) all with level 56-57 con mobs(10 + 1 roamer)... you don't just bum rush all 11 npc's. Half of the area was cleared, a nice section to split the pull was made(for us, not them), and thus the frustration of being leapfrogged from our work and not theirs.

It doesn't matter the location of where this took place, it's the concept of peoples actions that is the problem.

This logic is retarded....

Somebody has to either train away or kill the mobs in order to get there, you can't just show up at a camp in Seb with 25mobs on your party and be fine.

It's not like being beaten to the jade prod camp where you can invis/walk past the mobs and they won't attack you.

Eh I've said it before. We need common sense or courtesy enforced more then all of the little rules people like to abuse. Even with the sarcasm unfortunately people don't know how to act without a rule. So you will continue to have leapfrogging and stealing and ninjaing and whatever else goes on.

If you're not in the room, someone will take your camp in a zone like that. Honestly, it should all be considered one camp, but it's not because once you start allowing exceptions to the rules, you get complications and blurry lines. I call out multiple camps when someone CC's, but I know if someone wanted to they could just sit and wait in one of the rooms and I wouldn't be able to do anything.


We don't need a ten page set of rules with an addendum from every whinny bitch who had a hard time. Deal with it. Move on and never help the people who shit on you.



Now was this all really worth making a thread about? As far as I'm concerned, posting a rant thread draws as much flame to oneself as it does to the object of the rant. You're really just posting for our entertainment.

the simple solution is to stop being a bunch of crybabies and push for a quick release of and then play on the pvp server.

lol i cant imagine how pathetic and lame it must be to have someone randomly show up and there being nothing you can do about it, or likewise going somewhere to discover there is already someone else and being unable to eject them.

Wrong. People being dicks to one another is result of 1 group/soloer wanting to claim more than the spot they're camped in.

You've taken the complete wrong perspective and need to chill out.

Believe it or not, different servers had different rules which different GMs enforced differently. I like saying different.

Some actually ported guilds out for leapfrogging, some didn't care if you trained your ass off. This whole notion of "that's not how it was on live" has been brought up again and again by the completely clueless. That argument held no water back then because it was relative to whom you referred to and which server you played on; needless to say that argument isn't valid here either.

and even to your point, on Rodcet Nife leapfrogging was necessarily even considered bad manners.

Yea, but that whole concept of what applied on my server applied everywhere isn't realistic. I'm pointing it out because it's been used countless times by countless people to prove a point but it falls short of reality.

To put it simply: the rules of the server here are whatever the rules are set to be. It's really that simple. Personal experience from your server may agree with or stray from what it's like here, but because of the nature of classic EQ servers the rules here are always up for debate.

What if a group was clearing all the fire giants in sol b only to get to the last pull before magi rokyll, pull the 2 door warriors, and have some prick roll in and tag magi with a throwing star. The group killing the 2 door giants end up getting the kill on magi and the two giants. GM gets involved and awards the prick the channeling crystal stating first to engage rule on fire giants. This is the real good decision making skills our GMs have. They enforce the rules that make the pricks of the server feel better about being douchebags.
The GMs and their rule enforcement are only half the problem. The leadership of the server's top guilds and their lack of ettiquette is the other half of the problem. Its the people of the server and their daily antics toward one another that keeps the GMs and Leaders on this road of douchery.

it's a lot more than that. First and foremost is the mere nature of anonymity on the intarwebs. If a person dicks you over they won't ever meet you and therefore have less of a reason to give a fuck. Secondly, yes, you're right in the sense that some GMs and officers of certain guilds don't give a fuck, or they say they do but in reality they don't =P. Thirdly, this exact scenario has happened before and a GM was involved and ported the group (really the guild) to the safe spot and gave them a time out. There's a distinction between camps and leapfrogging. It is a fine line, but nevertheless there is a clear distinction. Common courtesy says to ask if you're by another group and you may be heading to the same camp, unfortunately this server has a tendency to turn the average player into a pimple-ridden-dickhead of a person as soon as they hit raiding level.

The biggest issue is that people forget why they came here in the first place: to have fun. Instead they get bitter, angry, vengeful, spiteful and loot-mongering because they're under the assumption that everyone else does the same. Apparently "chill the fuck out" just flies by people's heads.

So a group moved themselves into the area that your puller was using to split? Sounds like a good time to keep doing what you're doing and have your puller split some mobs. Leapfrogging assholes will get the message when they see their xp bar going in the wrong direction.
