Example 1 - Rilen dies, returns 10 minutes later and explains that he has been camping AC for the entirety of the day. Several un-related players in the same zone support this claim. The choice then falls upon the VD members to make a decision with the information presented to either act in the right (morally) - return the camp and make Rilen's time on the server enjoyable, with that expectation that at a future date Rilen would reciprocate and thus ensuring the survival (continued enjoyment of the server) for both parties - or act in the wrong (immorally) - deny Rilen the camp and cause a dissatisfaction with group life thus strengthening the threat to evolutionary survival.

Another way to look at it would be like this:

Example 1A - Rilen dies after monopolizing one of the most highly contested spawns on the server for almost an entire day. He returns 10 minutes later to see that someone has besieged his open camp. The choice then falls upon Rilen to either act in the right - realize he has had more than his fair share of time at the camp and see this as a sign to wrap it up and try it another time (allowing both parties the opportunity for enjoyment on the server) - or act in the wrong - make a huge deal out of a situation that was brought upon himself by his own doing (dying, not being bound anywhere near the camp, etc) and thus cause a dissatisfaction with the group life of the others involved.

Now....if they had stood by and watched him die and THEN took the camp? Ya - that's fuked up.

If they were camping the AC solely to MQ the ring for greed when Rilen needed the ring himself? Ya - that goes against the NBG principle and I'd consider that fuked up as well.

But this particular situation just reeks of someone who's pissed off they lost a camp and nothing else.

This group walked into Sro, saw an empty camp, and set up shop becuz one of them needed their JBoots. They offered to /tell him when they were done. They continued to buff n00bs in Sro while they camped the Jboots themselves. They didn't do anything wrong.

I don't play EQ to please everyone else. I enjoy seeing my friends and guildmates succeed etc - but when it comes to perfect strangers? Sorry but my game satisfaction/time is more important than yours.

I'm a WIZ and I spend SOME of my down time porting helpless n00bs becuz I do enjoy helping others. But when it's time to raid? Sorry but my time > your time.
