Hmmm, there's your supposed experience, and there's the rulebook you were supposed to be following: which should I believe?
Or am I just supposed to believe that you AND all other GMs ignored your own rulebook?
But I do agree that the meta here is completely different ... however, I'll continue to argue we should handle that unclassic meta in the most classic way possible. |
There were other possible outcomes other than the take turns based on a random roll. For example, if there was already a player made list running then people have compromised. Even if that list is made up of a ton of the same guild as long as someone else can technically be added to it then that was acceptable. If you were camping for a specific item and you were there first we almost never required any sort of sharing; you were there first the other person can wait in line as long as you didn’t try to skip them in the line by giving the camp to your friend or guildy if they weren’t ahead of the person on the list.
Contested spawn as disruption more frequently applied to broader camps like one person trying monopolize say, all of Orc 1 (simple example but it has happened). Then you’d have to reach a compromise or we would enforce an order or other sort of compromise. It was rarely used for a single spawn camp for an item (also as the expansions came out you had a lot of those really valuable items being lore so you couldn’t stay there forever farming it - we generally considered corpsing to be a disruption so in that sense we also prevented monopolies, but other than that it was pretty rare to show up at a single spawn camp and tell someone they had to share before they were done).
