Exactly.

Which is why I say "don't be a dick." It's greed. Getting the item(s) isn't enough. Now you're worrying about leveraging the camp into future aid. The 10% -- or worse -- chance that this particular guildie helps you in the future based solely upon your providing them with the camp in question is worth more to you than doing a solid for the guy that's been patiently waiting in line for 10 hours.

And the 'you' is a generalized you, I'm not referring to you specifically Yend. Just saying.

The ideal solution, from a non-dick that nonetheless wants to help his guild progress, would be to let someone hop into line, but not allow them to take over the camp. In other words, there are 5 members of ABC guild at the camp. A 6th guy shows up, not in ABC guild. That guy can sit around, and after the 5 ABC guys get their items, the 6th guy gets the next. But he doesn't get to choose who to hand the camp to afterward. It goes back to ABC. That way, everyone with the patience to wait their turn wins. Only lazy guildies that try to piggy back off of their friends without even waiting in an artificially short line lose.
