So you're unwilling to use the server rules as they are intended - to prevent people from monopolizing entire zones unless they're willing to devote all kinds of their own resources to it (i.e. one person sitting on each camp or more) - yet you complain you have a very slim change of getting "nice loot"?
You're unwilling to have a conversation with a person who claims to be camping a whole zone because you assume it would be "vicious debate"?
It just seems like you're so soft skinned you can't deal with other people. I've camped entire dungeons before because I knew the PH timers, but if someone came along and took the camp - or asked for it - i'd give it to them unless it was the reason I came - in that case I would confine myself to just that camp. Other players can't read your mind. You have to be willing to talk, or you'll never get "nice loot."
By the way, I have over 20k in assets and don't have a single level 50 character, have never raided, nor have ever been guilded on this server.
You'll get what you put into this game. You're just barely putting anything into it.

Do not confuse "Unwilling" with "chooses not to".
I understand what you are saying, but I have a level 50 and I have made well over 20k. I have easily gotten out what I have put in and more. My /rant was in regards to a lower level team wanting to grind out in a dungeon and look for this fabled "nice loot". If he were to do so, he would more than likely have to deal with a jerk who has been monopolizing the zone for several hours and is pissed that someone thinks they have any right at all to anything... ever. Then again, he may not have to deal with anyone. Who knows.
As for the server rules and my chosen reactions; sometimes I find it better to just leave things alone and move on, than causing some huge debate that takes up time from the GMs, who probably have much better things to do. If I have my heart set on something, then I will...
A) Wait my turn
B) Ask them to send me a tell when they finish (if ever)
C) Come back another time
-or in the case of the 1 man farming every spawn-
I will just ask him, if I feel it is worth it.
I am not saying that this particular person on that particular evening would have given me any guff at all had I tried to take a camp, but from my experience with this server and its general population, people are just not nice. Period. Not saying its bad or good, its just the facts. Nothing I can really do about it, other than carry on with my own business and not have to deal with the stress.
I suppose if not wanting to have to deal with uninformed/violent people makes me "soft-skinned", so be it. I would rather enjoy what I am doing and find something else to take up my time, than have to endure the stress of dealing with someone who is more than likely still living in their parents basement.
I am sure the GMs can back me up with their numerous stories about the ridiculous accusations and hours lost from having to deal with idiotic people. Sometimes I start to wonder just how anti-social gaming makes people. I deal with people online as I deal with people in real life....
