One hour passes and the Level 50 of Guild A decides he needs to get going.

So you are saying that the two level 30 members of Guild A should be forced to leave the camp based on the fact that the other person was there longer?

I have handed off many camps in my day and I really don't see a problem with it. Look at it like a group with revolving members. Just because the 6 people that were in the group controlling a spawn are not the same 6 people that are there now, does not mean that the camp was never unattended and you deserve it. Group members change, they never give up their spot.

Sure you could say they are "abusing the system" but from a GM perspective, it is a party with changing members that never leaves the camp unattended. There is no reason for that party to ever give it up.
No I'm not saying that. If two people in guild A are camping EE, and one person leaves but the other person can still hold it, that person should be allowed to. Even if someone else showed up before one of them.

What I'm imagining is more like this:

"I have the right to camp this spot, AND when I leave I have the right to hand it off to someone who isn't even here and will show up 5 seconds before I leave". Personally I never viewed camp rights as including hand off rights as well.

I guess then whoever he wants to hand it off to will just show up 5 minutes before the original camper leaves. To me it becomes a question of at what point is it a hand off and at what point is it a group simply changing members. In practice I realize it's pretty much impossible to consistently enforce.
