Lists are completely player made, can be fabricated, faked, and are generally unreliable.. GMs will not enforce a "list" in such a manner.
Additionally, you abandoned the camp the instant you were not at it for any reason. (Gate, Corpse, Died, Selling, Helping someone at seafuries) - If you are not maintaining a presence at the camp the entire time of the camp it is not yours.
It also appears that they caught placeholders up - which means you failed to kill an outdoor roaming monster immediately on spawning - which means you weren't camping it as well.
In order to camp an outdoor roaming monster you must be standing on it's spawn and able to engage immediately on spawn with represented force. Meaning, the necessary players to kill the targetted monster must be present at the spawn the entire time you claim to be camping it.
The guy who took the camp from you was 100% in the right to do so. Wait lists are complete bullshit and generally just a player courtesy.. They are in no way size shape or form mandatory or "law" - The only thing that matters is the person sitting on the spawn to kill it the instant it appears... Which was not you, nor was it anyone on your made up list.
Sorry buddy, sucks that you lost the camp, but the person who took it was absolutely right to do so, and you posting on the forums crying about it will only hurt your case publicly.. So far as GM interaction goes, GMs aren't going to punish a guy who showed up to an empty camp with PH up and started killing it. You cannot claim something you are not at, or cannot kill with what you have at it. At that point, the first person(s) to engage the PH and kill it have the camp.
Tl;dr - Not your camp Necro. When you died, it went FFA until Aridale claimed it by killing the PH.

Your a bit mistaken in your post - you can leave an area and still have rights to the camp - it has been done in places. I know a zone where it is common to run to a merchant. The key here is getting back to kill the next set of mobs. The real lesson here though is server rules don't really support solo play.
In regards to the original post, sounds like you died and as such without someone there to hold the camp -- Its OPEN for grabs, as stated before waitlist doesn't hold water. Interesting to see that Secondtonone is still farming AC. When I was there to get my AC ring - he had a pile of bodies lying underwater with rings stashed away on them from what I heard and then saw since he had killed AC before I got a turn.
