The newest way to tell if someone is a total loser nowadays is if the first words they type are "better watch out, Im frapsing this".
Im sure he wasnt frapsing because Phalice is a total fucking moron that can barely tell night from day, but the fact he said it right away makes him an even bigger loser.

Looks like a classic case of Character A claims camp rules are this and character B claims camp rules are that. In the end it comes down to which character backs down first, and which char can ks the other.

If you have no competition in the zone, you are more than welcome to hold as many as you like. The moment another party wants to claim a camp and you are "farming" multiple, you must decide which camp you want and forfeit the ones someone else is interested in. We still expect players to use the courtesy camp check before zerging a room.
Phallax clearly didn't call the CC. If he did he had, OP would have claimed the camp. Either he a) called it and didn't receive a response or ignored it, or b) didn't call it at all. Either way the camp isn't his.
OP clearly didn't have the mob on a timer, as he stated he had been there for four hours, so it's not the situation was that he was logging on to clear it the moment it was up.
You also don't have to be clearing a camp to maintain control, just clearing any associated placeholder(s), and have the ability to move in on that placeholder when it spawns.
Bottom line clarified and verified on IRC by Nilbog the other night when a question on camps in dungeons arose was as follows:
If you don't call a CC when you move in, your claim isn't legit.
Second you call the CC, and a claim is responded to, the responder is stuck at that camp and can't leave it without releasing the claim.
You just can't muscle your way in, sorry bro.

Oh man Cazic you are something else. Lol. You must be present at the camp to claim it. No CC was needed as I ran down to Ishva, sat for a good 5 minutes. Summoned my pet, buffed myself and my pet and got full mana and health before clearing the guards.
On my way down I clearly saw Cazic just sitting up top, no where near the Ishva room.
Talk all the shit you want, I followed the rules and claimed the camp. End of story.
It seems you have a hard-on for me to go through all the trouble of taking the SS, cropping it, making a post about it then making a fake phallaxtrader bot to get me spammed. Its a sad sad day that I was afk for a few hours spending time with my family(yes I actually do take time away from the game omg!) so the spam didnt effect me at all. Plan failed!

Phallax did nothing wrong.
Was Phallax in the right technically as far as rules go? I guess that depends on your interpertation of the rules. I would say that *technically* he was not actively in the camp so *technically* it was open.
Personally would I have handled the situation that way? No. I like Phallax. I've never had problems with him, he shows up to raids, and is quick to throw me STA and Tuna when I ask. Sure he can be mouthy on the boards, but I'm guilty of the same crime; so I can't fault the guy for that. That being said, I don't agree with the way he handled this situation. I'll be the first to admit that had I been in your place and he had tried to take the Ishva camp from me, we'd have had a serious problem.
My empathy for your situation ends there though. You're need to hop on the anti-DA band wagon by dragging a guild into a personal matter was uncalled for. If you wanted to inform the leadership of DA that Phallax was acting like a jack-off, there are far better ways to do that than ranting our guild.

There was no situation untill Cazic created it. How can you "claim" a camp if you are not present in it? And elsewhere exping/PLing/farming in the zone? You cant.
As I stated in his awesome SS and here, I gave him plenty of time to check the camp and stop me from claiming it. I sat there for a good 15 minutes before there was ANY sign of him anywhere near Ishva room.
Thatd be like me being in guk, clear frenzy, then go sit at lord for 25 mins untill frenzy repops, come back to some enc/necro prepping to take frenzy. The camp is now the enc/necro's because I left the camp. 36 hours or not you must be present in the camp.

Don't misunderstand me, I'm not saying that you did anything wrong... I'm just saying that I would have handled the situation differently. I think comparing a 36 hour camp to a 28 minute camp is a poor example. I don't know the situation aside from what I read in the screenshot so I'm not sure what he was doing or where he was - but I wouldnt have been clearing the camp if I knew the mob wasn't due either... although I would have at least been in the camp.
I wasn't saying that you were acting like a jack-off, I was simply stating that if he felt you were, he should have contacted our officers as opposed to ranting an entire guild for the actions of an individual.

true true fair enough, the frenzy camp is the best scenario I could come up with.
The situation is all in the SS text he posted, it lasted all of 3 minutes. He didnt even stick around to try and argue me further there. He left as soon as he saw me down there. And didnt /tell me untill he had already walked away.
IMO I think he knew he was in the wrong and lost the camp and just wanted some juice to post on the boards.

Really? This is what I'm talking about. You're taking the actions of one person and using it as evidence to judge an entire group... pretty sure there are a number of real life examples that can show the flaw in your logic there.
As far as I'm concerned you can fuck right off - I'm included in the kind of people DA is, and I'd be willing to wager that I have a far better reputation than you on this server. I challenge you to find one person who has a legit qualm with me here for something I've done to them. Sure, everyone may not agree with my posts or opinions on here - but my in game conduct, along with the majority of DA, is nothing short of cordial.
Plus - if I remember right, Phallax is still an applicant... so you're judging a guild based off a person who is a trial member. Good job guy.

There was no situation untill Cazic created it. How can you "claim" a camp if you are not present in it? And elsewhere exping/PLing/farming in the zone? You cant.
Because as was stated, there was no one else vying for it.
The quoted section explained exactly how low to hold more than one camp provided there was no one else around. You didn't call the CC. had he known there was someone else interested in it, he would have sat there for it as far as I can tell. You didn't call the CC, so by the rules you didn't give him a chance to claim it as his. It doesn't matter if he wasn't clearing trash (that he didn't need to either I might add), and that he wasn't there.
I'm not saying I like the camp claiming rules, just saying that as they are written Phallax is in the wrong because he didn't give the CC to let the OP claim it.
I mean here's how *I* would have the camp rules: "You aren't there, you can't claim it". Simple as that. Unfortunately, the way the rules are written you need to courtesy CC it, which at times is sort of silly. I mean if you aren't there you shouldn't be able to hold it. That being said, there are some times when courtesy CCs are nice. If I go off to pity rez someone in the zone, come back and some asshole has stolen my camp because they didn't call a CC, I feel I am justifiably pissed (and yes I have that happen more often than you would think). My favourite place to farm is uguk. I farm it a lot. When I go there I run timers and could snag pretty every rare in the zone if I wanted to. If someone is already at a camp tho, or plops down on one of my timers tho, I don't care. I wasn't there, and don't hold a presence at a spot -- too bad for me.

That's the claim. The camping rules however, mention nothing other than the need to engage the mob within a reasonable time after it spawns.
How you pull the camp is up to you, as long as you are able to engage the mobs very shortly after they are spawned.

you guys are neglecting the fact that he wasnt at the camp.
no indication could have been given to phallax that the area was camped, no mobs were dead, no PC's were in the area of the camp, so he sat down and went at it.
youre a SK too, if you didnt want to kill, you could have at least sat in the room and feigned on the spawn location.

You're neglecting the fact that it is irrelevant according to the rules.

not everyone calls CC, i know i dont, i just run to camp to see if anyone is there, or mobs are dead.
if mobs are dead and no one is there, then ill CC to find out what the dilly is with camp.
in this case, it was full spawn and no one around. looks like an open camp to me... pretty straight forward.

I would rather run to a camp to see if someone is there "camping it" then call a CC and have another person notice you cc no one claimed the camp and run there and beat me to it and claim that they were....My prime example is dino in OOT, far to many times have I CC to have the person not even be there. I would honestly rather waste my time running there and seeing if its camped myself.
This whole CC thing when you arrive at an uncamped mob to see if another person might be off somewhere else in the zone between spawns camping other mobs is pure crap.

That's great. Unfortunately those aren't the formal rules in place.

as per the example used in the 'formal rules'
*Example* You are doing Ghoul Magi, Lord, and Frenzy in lguk. Another group arrives to claim a camp. If they stumble upon a spawned room devoid of players, they can claim it. Where your group resides is your camp; choose wisely.

ok, i had to dig out the reading glasses to read that crap and here is my opinion. I'm going to assume they are both level 50, i am also assuming that it's still much like the original EQ. Taking that into account there is one main reason a level 50 would be in paw, the ishva robe or summoned corpse spell(is it in game yet) so if a second level 50 zoned in he would presume that ishva would be camped. When i was camping the ishva robe back in the old days i did not have to clear any mob to camp that spot and i just mez, DD and lifetap the mob to death all solo at 50. If things are different with the zone mechanics and will not allow a level 50 to camp the spot now just let me know.

This is a very common experience for me from that guild and after a variety of issues with them, I decided to post just a single one.
Please feel free to post more or talk to me personally about instances in which members of DA are acting in what you consider an unacceptable manner. While I am not an officer, nor am I in any official position to discipline members; if I agree that you've been wrong by a member I will do my best to see that it is brought to the attention of and dealt with by the leadership of my guild.
There are better ways to approach an issue like this, and I hope in the future you use one of those as oppose to ranting an entire guild. That was my issue with this post... not that you made it - but how you made it. While this is my first impression of you Cazic, and it admittedly has not been a good one; as I said before - if in the future you have an issue with a member of Dark Ascension, I assure you that if you send me a /tell I will listen to your issue and do my best to help you resolve it... and if I cannot, I will get someone involved who can. Just for example, this run in you had with Phallax I'm sure I could have resolved without having to get any aside from myself, yourself and Phallax involved.
I admit that maybe we have some people in DA that are deplorable humans.. I don't think Phallax is one of them.. but it is possible that we do; I honestly don't know every person on a deep personal level. Maybe some of our members are the picture perfect players on raids/groups and complete assholes when alone. If this is the case and we do have a few bad apples, let us know so we can take care of them. Like I said, I'm more than willing to hear any complaints you have - and I'm sure any officer of DA would say the same thing.

Im not seeing how its a dick move? Anyone in the zone(there were 2 other 50s not with Cazic or at Ishva camp) could have easily claimed Ishva from any spot or camp they wished when a CC is /shouted and no one answers. The best way to check is camp is visually checking it. If it looks tampered with then yes I will ask for a CC but there wasnt a soul anywhere near the camp.
Taxi!! that video was so funny my face and throat hurt from laughing it fits so well with whats going on!!!
I was being sarcastic. Im sure that in any guild in any MMO as large as DA there are some people that can potentially be asses and not. To try to paint them all as bad people because of some anecdote is ridiculous.

What kinda people "Who" are?
You see radically different behaviors in an individual throughout a day, let alone the "mindset" of an entire group of them in the same period.
Nice shot at trying to make it a guild issue.
Looks to me like this is what happened:
Cazic is camping the Ishva, no one is around to compete for it, so he decides to help out some people in the zone with whatever they're doing instead of just sitting in the room with his thumb in his ass, ready to go sit in the room if someone who would compete for it shows up. Phallax shows up, likely sees him in the zone, and also knows there's a good chance he wont be in the room at the moment, and he also knows calling a camp check would get Cazic to return to the room, so he just swoops in and starts killing and says "You weren't here" ie. being a douche bag.

Nah its pretty inaccurate, if you actually read what I say, i never CC if i can run to the camp. visually checking >> social
Anyone in the zone(there were 2 other 50s not with Cazic or at Ishva camp) could have easily claimed Ishva from any spot or camp they wished when a CC is /shouted and no one answers.
1. Going forward, if you intend to hold or claim a camp, your group must retain presence at that camp. If you have no competition in the zone, you are more than welcome to hold as many as you like. The moment another party wants to claim a camp and you are "farming" multiple, you must decide which camp you want and forfeit the ones someone else is interested in. We still expect players to use the courtesy camp check before zerging a room. If there is a full spawn of mobs in a camp room up I think that would be considered not camped. How you pull the camp is up to you, as long as you are able to engage the mobs very shortly after they are spawned.
Hmm.... Accurate.

Right, you chose to forgo ANY level of courtesy or lack of douchebaggery to run there and check the camp so you could say "HA! You aren't here, it's mine!" even though everyone knows that there is zero need for him to be in the room or be killing the guards. All this type of behavior does is make it so people wont want to help others exp'ing in the zone when they camp something, since some douche like you will just run in and steal the camp without calling a CC.

He could have EASILY taking his "exp crew" down to Ishva area. Was he there? No Why EXP somewhere else when youre "camping" somthing. Makes no since at all to me. Keep the assumption posts coming, theyre great.

I get along fine with others in game, ask pretty much anyone I interact with. I knew Cazics past of how he trys to "claim" camps and bitches when things dont go his way. Of course im going to jump the gun when hes no where near for 15+ mins and then all the sudden shows up, sends a msg then runs off. (BTW he ran off before I even replied)

Camp rules are clear. He is free to roam the zone if there is no competition for camps. Once there is competition, he has to claim his camp. So.. you are wrong.

There was no need at all for him to be in the room or kill the guards, you knew that calling a CC would make him go back to the room, so you decided to just roll in and go "HAHA ITS MINE"

Ishva spawn is not like other camps. There is no PH, there is no need to clear the guards every time they spawn. Once he spawns, the guards can they be cleared. This is one of those "falls in between" scenarios that Phallax exploited for his benefit. It is quite obvious by the tells screenshot that Phallax knew he was being a douche and immediately went on the defensive.
Yea, pretty obviously a case of someone attempting to exploit a portion of the rules for his benefit.
He will probably respond with something along the lines of "Oh, so I'm a douche bag for following the rules now?"
Well, yeah, you sure are. An example would be if I'm camping Gynok in Befallen, and say right after I kill the PH, someone asks for a port for a CR, so I bind to Befallen and tell them to run there, and port them, and gate back, but in the 40 seconds I'm gone, someone comes in and takes the camp, and once I explain the situation to them, instead of saying "Oh, okay, carry on" they choose to say "You weren't here, therefore it's mine. I'm fraps'ing this BTW."

I am aware, but a camp is considered if you are in the room. The rules are clear on this. Until another group zones in, you are free to kill whatever, but if you aren't clearing an area and someone comes and starts clearing the room, it is theres.

In this case, the area is "cleared" because the named mob or PH is not spawned. There are many other camps around norrath where you don't have to clear the entire room to kill the named. In many cases, the Lord in guk can be pulled without having to kill his guards. If a group rolled down, saw that the named/ph wasn't up, but the guards were, do you think it would be acceptable for them to claim the room as there even though an enchanter has been "clearing" a few of the named/ph's? Or should he be given the chance to choose his camp like the rules state?

If they were sitting in the room, yea. It is there camp.
Otherwise, someone can call it without being there just because they have a tracker, and they can maximize their names without having to "claim" the camp as per the rules. This is the exact situation the rules are made to prevent.
If the rules aren't enforced to the letter there will be anarchy. Consistancy is key. Sure, maybe the OP was very courteous and willing to come to some agreement and made a great effort to do so despite Phallanx's douche baggery, but the rules man. The rules.

The rules say they are free to roam the zone if there is no competition. There wasn't competition, he was free to roam the zone. Once there is competition, he is required to pick a camp, of which the option wasn't given to him.
The rules were made to prevent an ench/nec whatever from claiming 4 camps in lower guk because he had the ability to move to each one at the time they spawned. They were not made to allow someone to run to a camp where the named/ph isn't up, kill the mobs in the room, and go "You weren't sitting right here it's mine now."

I have no agenda here really but I want to add 2 things.
1. Phallax helped me out in sola one time when i lagged into the lava and crawled out at 10% into a bunch of clockwork gnomes that I was kos with. I was stuck FD there for about 5-10 minutes, did a /shout to the zone, and phallax was there shortly to regen/invis me. Thank you Phallax.
2. Camp rules are less than clear to me and asking for clarification from several people has resulted in more confusion. I've had the same person (an individual in a position of authority) say "no, you don't have to be at a camp to claim it" and "yes, you do have to be at a camp to claim it" within the space of 10 minutes. I was then insulted for asking for clarification about his statements. A lot of people seem to believe that camp rules are common sense. If it was common sense there would be no reason to have a rule in the first place and the fact that many things are not common sense is why laws and rules are made. I think we could save everyone some stress if the rules for camps were revised and updated a bit.

This isn't Nam
There are rules
If someone plans to kill a mob and you zone in and take the camp, you are a douchebag regardless of "server rules"; and a guild should be held responsible for the actions of all their members, trial and officers alike.
Nerd raging over server rules is even more ignorant, you don't seem to just simply enjoy playing the game you rage online to force people out of camps for your profit. You are a sad person.

Here's a story:
The other day in LGuk we had a very nice group going that was pulling pretty much executioner, ass/sup, and cav/sav/sage. It was great exp and great prospective loot. We were sitting somewhere in between the camps, but closer to exe. When someone called camp check we did that super clever thing where different members of the group claim different spawns. Some group moved into ass/sup because we weren't technically there, even though we had broken it down and been pulling it consistently.
I thought about making up some stench about how we had broken and controlled the camp, but then I realized that I was just being a greedy little bitch that wanted a roll on a thick banded belt.
Anyways, moral of the story is if you're not there to camp the damn camp it is not yours, no matter how greedy you may be. I don't care if it's a 36 hour spawn. If you want to camp a fucking no-life spawn like that then yes, you DO have to sit there with your thumb up your ass. You can't go have your cake (help friends level) and eat it too (claim a spawn that is somewhere else).
Everybody's calling Phallax a jerk and I think he kind of pigeonholed himself by claiming fraps, calling on all this past bs, and claiming server rules for the whole world to see on a screenshot, but the reality is he's not that big of a dick. I think the bigger dick here is someone who thinks they can somehow power level there friends somewhere else and then come back to a spawn they want XXXX amount of time later and try and lay claim to someone else who has moved in. That shit doesn't fly with me.

By letter of the law Phallax played by the rules, but even playing by the rules you can still be a dick about it. A level 50 in a level 30-35 dungeon usually means they're camping something. You could have just asked.
Yes, it's unfair to bring a whole guild into a situation involving a single individual, but when there's a number of occasions that has involved it's members it unfortunately does tend to happen :/
Rules and etiquette are separate things, breaking one gets you labelled a cheat, the other gets you labelled an ass. Some people are content to be an ass who doesn't cheat :D
Phallax, you remind me of Craig Hoffman from Family Guy.
Meg: Hi, Craig. Umm, I was wondering if maybe you would want to, I don't know, go out sometime?
Craig Hoffman: Huh, that's about as likely as me playing by someone else's rules besides my own. Which I would never do. I play by my own rules, nobody else's, not even my own.
Meg: How 'bout a movie?
Craig: I don't go out with dudes.
I think the more important part of this post is that Phallax doesn't go out with dudes. You just broke a lot of hearts by making this information public Girth.

I have no horse in this race, and I dont know either individual involved. Having said that, there is a couple ways for this to have been avoided. Should Phallax have called CC upon entering the zone? Probably. I think the "I never call CC" is kind of weak. Isvha is a unique camp in that its such a long spawn, so I certainly dont fully blame him for showing up, thinking it was open, and taking it (nothing was dead and no one was there).
Even though you dont need to kill the guards, perhaps you should, just to leave your mark if you choose to be elsewhere in the zone. Also, when im free-roaming a zone taking numerous spawns, I make it my responsibility to monitor who is in zone, and if someone comes in, I get my ass back to the camp I want asap. I.e. in Perma when I went for a mammy cloak, I was keeping several named cleared, but once someone else showed up, I went right back to mammy in case they were to check it without calling CC.

All in all, if I were Phallax, I probably would have given the camp back, but if I had been there for the 15+ plus minutes he said he was, it would have been tougher to do. If I were Cazic, I would have never let this happen in the first place, because I would have been back at the Ishva camp as soon as I saw Phallax come in.
I liken the camp rules to the constitution... some people take it word for word, and others use extrapolated interpretations for the countless situations that cant possibly be explained 100% cut and dry.

Basically: following the rules makes you a big mean jerkface. Perhaps kinder words should've been used but staying in the camp you want is the only way to get what you want. Dems da rules.
Much like the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, the rules were put in place to protect the little guy. When the little guy isn't aware of his rights and what he is supposed to do to maintain them, he gets stepped on by someone else that is aware. The ignorance of one person is not a burden to be shared by everyone anymore than it is required.
Sorry broham, it sucks you lost the camp. Camps are territorial in nature - undefended territory is the same as unclaimed territory. Prepare to have your flag captured.

Given my own difficulties with conflict resolution, it would make little sense for me to judge how this should have been handled, but one thing is definitely clear here: Phallax's attempts to pretend that he doesn't care about loot and that he is "only here for the experience" in other threads are completely disingenuous. This is a conflict over a rare and valuable item for either resale or twinking. In the abstract, Phallax prevailed because his greed was greater.

Greed is a fairly common factor in most of what people do. Not to sound bleak but in a very strict sense of a definition altruism is hard to come by - everyone wants something.
Of course it prevails. Realize that and roll with the punches!

TL;DR
While it is specifically stated in the camp rules you can't claim a camp that you aren't at, based on Phallax's word choices and phrases; I'd just mark this up to tool-baggery and move on dude.

Or you attacked a guild for the actions of one person, knowing that it would anger the members of said guild and are claiming victory because we posted in defense of ourselves. Keep thinking you won this one guy.
I don't think you've changed anyone's view of DA. The people that already disliked DA came here and hated on us, the people that didn't care focused on the issue between you and phallax, and people who like DA called you out for being a tool. Pretty much everyone maintained the same opinion they entered this thread with.

As a completely disinterested party, I don't see that this was a failure of the guild he is applying to. To try and paint an entire guild with such a broad brush coated with tar in one hand and smacking DA with a feather pillow in the other over such a trivial conversation does seem a bit flouncy. And to head off any snarky replies to mind my own business, you created the very public post.
The few times I have interacted with people from DA were all positive, so I just don't see how they are all bad based on some rhubarb over a camp. You do know this is a game right?
I am starting to wonder if this isn't some petty revenge against someone to try and ruin their application to the guild.

Hmm, so the obverse would be true as well right? So DA going around buffing lowbie strangers, or gifting them with starter gear and otherwise being should also give some very positive reflection. I see many ready to condemn , but from what I saw from the OP, he was just itching for some way to try and cause trouble. I smell shenanigans.

Also, I think this was a pretty pointless thread. Every guild on this server is filled with people who are cocks about camping rights. I don't think this really reflects that heavily on DA as a guild.
That said, am I the only one who finds this weird? I see plenty of people who have nice remarks about individuals in DA. However every single person I have heard mention DA as a whole, be it in game, on the forums, or on IRC that isn't a member of DA, thinks it's a guild full of lying, cheating, training, exploiting, assholes who would stab their own mothers in the back for loot.
Now, I can understand this coming FROM IB as DA is their only real competition at present. It totally makes sense that they would fabricate things to try and make DA look bad. I get that. Just, why does everyone else seem to say the exact same thing? If DA is a guild of reasonably well behaved and friendly individuals, why is there so much hate? Is the entire server just buying into IBs propaganda and giving DA an unfair shake? Or is this reputation somewhat deserved?
Seriously. I want to know this. If it's just some sort of jealousy, why don't people feel as strongly about IB? I get that IB is disliked by a large portion of the population, and I'm sure some of their actions have earned them that disapproval. They may deserve it all and more. With DA however, people REALLY hate you guys. Like, they saw a picture of you fisting their mother or something kind of dislike. If you guys are as upstanding as you make yourself out to be, why is this the prevalent feeling toward your guild as a whole?

My guess is that, on the individual level, they are cool people. However, when they get together as a guild to do this or that, mob mentality takes over, and they do whatever it takes to get their ph@t lewtz. Either they get their collective greed on, or the leadership is doing it, or some combination of both. Once again, that's my GUESS, but in general humans become worse people the more of us you get together.
Personally, I've ran into several very cool DA people, and some of my guildies are members there now. I've also ran into some snotty annoying worthless players from there, on their twink alts (since I'm not raiding yet), but that's like 2 people in 2 separate incidents to 4 or 5 good incidents.
Last thing to mention - people remember bad things over good things. Some might say "one bad apple ruins the bunch", but I prefer "Build a hundred bridges, but you suck one dick...."
Also, it's PAINFULLY obvious that the OP's motives here were to get dirt on a guild that he has a personal vendetta against. His mission is accomplished if just a few people look down on Phallax for the way he acted and as a result look down on DA.
For the record, DA, it'll take a lot more than a pathetic little trollage like this to get me to think differently of you guys. Mission failed here.

He's gotten people involved on multiple levels.
The newest way to tell if someone is a total loser nowadays is if the first words they type are "better watch out, Im frapsing this".
Im sure he wasnt frapsing because Phalice is a total fucking moron that can barely tell night from day, but the fact he said it right away makes him an even bigger loser.
Coming from an IB member, someones guild who cries over every little rule this is quite a laugh. Nice bad mouthing there too, who taught you all those words?

The word phallus can refer to an erect penis, to a penis-shaped object such as a dildo, or to a mimetic image of an erect penis. Any object that symbolically resembles a penis may also be referred to as a phallus; however, such objects are more often referred to as being phallic (as in "phallic symbol"). Such symbols often represent the fertility and cultural implications that are associated with the male sexual organ, as well as the male orgasm.

To the idiots suggesting he gave up his camp a little bit too easy etc. He gave it up because by letter of the law (you know, the camp rules) he lost his claim to it by not sitting on the spawn point.
What his intention in posting this was to show that whilst appealing to another player to see that given the nature of the camp (36hr) he wanted to help someone out rather than sit on the spawn point, but was still there for the purpose of camping it. Phallax disregarded this claiming he was adhering to the rules, which he was.
But then the manner in which he did this raises questions about his character.

I guess I'm confused why people keep missing this. The rules say do a courtesy camp check first. Phallax didn't. By his own admission, he never follows camp check rules. If he had CC'd, the OP would've responded, and could've then moved in to sit on the spawn.
Honestly, from what I understand about this camp (that being just the info in this thread), there's no point is sitting on the spawn point, other then being pedantic with the rules.

How can a camp check "courtesy" be a rule? If i'm not obligated to answer a camp check (and i'm not...) then i don't see why people would be obligated to call one. The reason people wouldn't follow these is because on occasion you get a single group calling 4 different camps.
I still don't think this is about the rules, it's about etiquette and how someone would rather screw someone over by claiming to the rules than show play-nice etiquette to a fellow player.

Hrm yeah, you're probably right. Rules seem to just give people the wiggle room they want to interpret however it best fits them, and abuse it.
We obviously need camp lawyers available in all zones! Or ya know, people could just learn to share in busy zones, and be more considerate of people camping retarded stuff like 36 hour spawns.

I love the double standards...Keep 'em coming! There are other scenarios played out quite a lot where rules are quoted by players with pontifical airs, and a morally superior index finger reaching for the heavens and any dissenters are shouted down and ridiculed by the peanut gallery.
I have recently had a situation where someone was a complete douche, yet his behavior was celebrated by some... I have moved on from my issue.
Here's a story I think many will enjoy:
Two monks, Tanzan and Ekido, were walking down a muddy street in the city. They came upon a lovely young girl dressed in fine silks, who was afraid to cross the street because of all the mud.
“Come on, girl,” Tanzan said. He picked her up in his arms and carried her across.
The two monks did not speak again till nightfall. Then, when they had returned to the monastery, Ekido couldn’t keep quiet any longer.
“Monks shouldn’t go near girls,” he said, “and certainly not beautiful ones like that one! Why did you do it?”
“My dear fellow,” Tanzan said, “I put that girl down hours ago, back in the city. It’s you who are still carrying her!”

Never happened on live, will never happen here.
Remember, these are the same crapweasels from live, 11 years older, still acting like they're 12, still unable to get along with anyone, still rubbing everyone the wrong way, still living in the basement at home, unemployed, miserable, and taking out their rage against their own failures on everyone else around them.

I am good friends with one druid, Braad, who I have grouped with many times. I saved another druid's life named Keeperof who was at about 5% from a train of hags when I snagged aggro off them and gave him time to gate. Both of these two will give me free ports whenever they're on and available. The funny thing is I've (ironically) never had a run-in with a druid so I don't know why you're so spiteful toward me, unless you're not a druid.

Yea my app was "denied" all over R&F posts, for a guild to just deny an app over R&F posts with no warning, no talking to or anything is pretty sad imo.
Doesnt matter much tho I can enjoy the game again instead of worrying about the guild vs guild drama.

Not really. His original post was as much of a criticism of dark ascension as it was with phallax. In fact, he listed dark ascension first on the thread title. Now that the two have been separated, his whole point seems a little lost.

DAs name as a whole will always be what it is. It doesnt matter how many members they gain, remove, deny what ever. The name will always hold the the status of what ever people see them as. I how ever can easily earn my name back or just recreate a new anonymous toon. So yes the OP still loses.

Ya, dunno bout Jiji so much, never had a problem with him/her personally. But when a friend asked me to join DA and i saw Daverik in there I nearly didnt just for the fact that he was tagged. He prooven time and time again how big of a douche he is, specially during global ooc times.

HAHAHA, I find it really funny you said that, because a lot of people think we changed our guild name because of the reputation Fish Bait was getting. But the REAL reason is because we went under new management, meaning we had a new guild leader that was there ALL the time with us, instead of only showing up with a raid target was up. :rolleyes:

You mean like if DA leapfrogged, purposely trained and killstole other guilds for 8 months? Would that be sinking lower?
Or if DA leapfrogged and disrespected raids to kill a mob and destroy the loot? The only purpose being to fuck anyone else out of a drop, keeping everyone undergeared on purpose so they could squelch any competition?
Nevermind the blatant exploiting of obviously broken items like leatherfoot caps and fiery paladin swords, where you could exploit unlimited charges for said items = free instant complete heals and instant ports to WC for immediate mobilization free of charge.
Or what if DA turned what was supposed to be a team vs team PVP event into a griefing, corpse stacking orgy of douchebaggery, where they would res people in telling them they'll stop and then just kill them again, laughing at them. When it was brought to the forums they proceeded to troll up the thread taunting and laughing at the other guild. You mean like that low?
Or resing rival guilds with supposed good intentions only for it be a 0% res and then laughing at them?
You mean like that?

The rumors are all true. I divorced my wife and sold my company so I can camp bosses on Project 1999 24/7. I've also begun to take meth-amphetamine so I can sleep less. I'm now considering a feeding tube, catheter and colostomy bag.
