The 30 minute timer serves a different purpose. It is intended to ensure you take down the mob in a reasonable time frame, and to step aside if you cannot. During this period you are uncontested and not held to any minimum people in zone.
These sir, are two different apples.

I see. Well. In theory you could see the mob pop, call 30, and then call 1 minute instantly, thus eliminating the 30 minute timer altogether, if you are not there the SECOND (literal second) the mob spawns.
Thats still pretty lame for a mob with a window the size of Skope's mom's vagina. Because it favors the non-possessory party. The people entitled to the camp need 15 UNAFK PEOPLE, but the people looking to remove the entitlement need 1, the person to track the mob, and call the 30 and rollcall simultaneously. Sure you need 15 in the zone, but how is that fair? I guess you could call 30 and roll instantly right back, and keep going back and forth until someone finally gets 15 on in a minute..

but what sucker GM wants to watch that shit show?
Skope. My opinion is this rule is stupid and slanted in favor of the group looking to usurp the camp and the mob. I can see it was intended to eliminate camping ,but it hasn't been used properly.
