It's unbelievable that 2 decades later people are making this game way harder than it has to be. Nearly 20 years ago with many more servers and a much higher population not even half the amount of issues were brought up as today with you people. This server is like the melting pot for halfwit scumbags that don't understand common courtesy or reputation, which was a huge part of classic EQ.
If somebody is at the camp, its camped. If nobody is there, its not camped and its yours. It's literally that simple. Just because your mad that somebody is there and you know hes popping soon or blah blah blah doesn't mean you should behave like an imbecile.

There wasnt a blueprint for the path to pixeldom 20 years ago either, mobs like this could be found wandering the zone that had been up for hours, if not days--simply because of lack of informed players, thats obviously no longer the case. A good amount of p99's player-base are 'hardcore' neck-beard types with incredible pixel lust. There was a guy corpsing tranix crowns for like 4 months, by rule-lawyering 'camp' status at Tranix. So if you think that people arent going to always try and use loopholes and rule lawyer for mobs/camps like this, you're very naive... just look at the logs hermoine posted above, thats within 24 hours of a GM ruling on a mob that the players had otherwise already had an agreement to be FTE (yellow-text already included mind you)- which Sirken over-ruled, apparently?
Has Nil/rog made public what the rules are going to be moving forward yet? Its really weird to me, for the staff to always promote player-made diplomacy, then turn around and do something like this because of 1 instance, in an arguably fishy scenario, of 1 player who doesnt have the mental capacity to simply leave logs running to get a timer for the mob he needs and 'camp' it for the very short window and FTE for it like the 20+ people before him?
Whats the difference in Stormfeather and Lodizal? They are part of the same exact quest, located in the same zone, on the same spawn timer, both have FTE messages, etc... nobody is in an uproar over Lodi tho, which is REQUIRED to even be bothered to deal with stormfeather in the first place lol....
Flame me all you want, but dont base your judgements against me from some doctored up RNF post you read earlier, im just trying to get clarification - changing this from FTE to a camp has increased the drama surrounding this mob already 10 fold, and its only going to get worse as velious wears on, and 'Loot Rights' sales become more prevalent.
