Then you won't mind me calling you out on dodging the question.

How many minutes are you saying someone should wait for a person to do a CR and come back to the camp before they can claim it from that person? Is it 5? 10? 60 minutes? 300 minutes? 4500 minutes?

Just asking a simple question. I'm sure you'll reply with some witty response like "SLIPPERY SLOPE IS A FALLACY HEHE" or "STRAWMAN!" but you'd still not be answering my simple question. And if you do answer it, I would like you to follow up with who decides the number of minutes we must wait, and where is this written?
See, you're doing exactly what I'm talking about, making it all about some technical rule definition. The entire point I'm trying to make here is that it SHOULD NOT be about some exacting amount of time that differentiates what is or isn't this or that. If the poor guy died and is immediately running back, fuck man, just let him have the camp back. Hell, you could even be a really nice guy and hold it for him til he gets back. Or, you can choose to tell him to fuck off and and take it.

Like I said, it isn't about what the rules should or shouldn't be, it's about what is or isn't decent and respectable behavior. You saying "SO WHAT'S THE EXACT AMOUNT OF TIME THAT SHOULD PASS???//" is EXACTLY what I'm saying shouldn't happen. You can tell the noob on a CR you wont SoW him for less than 10 plat, and no rules should tell you otherwise, but absolutely refusing despite sitting there FM doing nothing is a pretty douchey thing to do.
