In chat- Sorry man he had the camp after me.

How is that fair? There should be a list for these camps like every other camp. If you leave the next person on that list should get the camp. You should have to declare when someone messages you who is next in line and if you fail to within a timely manner, then they automatically get the spot when you leave. You should not be able to hand down a camp in perpetuity, never giving another person/guild a chance at that camp. This is the fair way to manage a camp and there should also be a time limit for how long you can remain at a camp farming. You should not be able to stay til your bags are full if the item is needed by a lot of people. Monopolies are not classic and were never intended to happen, regardless of how the game is today.
It's not fair, and that's fine. P99 is not designed to be an easy loot train where nothing matters like most MMOs. P99 can be unfair, and that is one of the charms of it. If you want fair go play another MMO with instancing, you've got the option of basically every other MMO out there.

If you want a shot at the camp, wait there and look for an opening, as I said before. The camping party does make mistakes, and you can swoop in if you catch them being AFK for too long.
