Pretty sure that by allowing to be put on the list you agreed on an player list and have to honor the current list,and that it's in essence a player agreement then that gm can enforce...

Well so yes and no.
First off, the rules lawyer in me is inclined to agree with Legidias: based on my readings of past rulings I
think that if player A is doing a camp and has players B, C, and D on the list, once player B takes over they can say "screw you C and D, I'm giving the camp to my friend E next". But I'm also not aware of any explicit/clear ruling on the matter (let alone a recent one), so
maybe the staff already
does force B to honor the list and give camp to C? I don't think anyone knows for certain what the staff would do (it might even vary from GM to GM), so this scenario is more "clarification needed" than "new rule needed" I guess.
But meanwhile there's a whole separate issue, which is that A is in no way obligated to setup a list in the first place. B can show up and say "hey A, I see you're camping ____, I'd like to camp it next once you get your item", and (again, AFAIK) A can say "suck it B, I'm giving the camp to C, and he's going to give it to D, who will give it to E, all of whom are my guildies/friends, so maybe come back next week and
maybe if we're tired of it by then you can have it."
It seems to me that it'd be healthier overall to just make A be forced to give the camp to the next person waiting on a first come, first serve basis, and not have the option to keep passing the camp infinitely to friends/guildies.
