How do you know they got legs? Just because the named spawns doesn't mean he dropped them. ancient croc you stay as long as you want. AC spawns he auto has the ring, you leave.

Of course. As a result, you couldn't practically /petition to complain unless someone has been there a really long time, and then a GM could decide how to handle it.
It's like I keep saying: the rules here exist to handle legitimate disputes between players ... not give forum elf lawyers reasons to do crazy things. If Bob has had (Guk) AC camp for an hour, and you want the camp ... well, too bad.
You
can /petition after an hour, but the it's unlikely the GM is going to give you the camp. But if you've seen Bob sit there for eight hours at the camp? Sixteen? At some point the GM is likely to come back to the basic principle I keep repeating.
That principle is that this is a free server that everyone gets to play on out of the generosity of the staff. You have absolutely no "rights" to anything on that server, and to the contrary the same people who made the server also want its players to
not be total selfish assholes, and instead to share scarce resources on the server.
As for what the
exact magic number is for "how long is too long to hold AC camp"? That's not spelled out in any "book of rulings", so it's 100% up to the GM that responds to the /petition. And again:

To issue perfectly consistent rulings all the time they'd need to use (and maintain) a giant "book of rulings". That would be asking even more of our already overworked (and 100% volunteer) staff, so having inconsistent rulings ... but more volunteer time dedicated to helping us ... seems like the better option.
