If training is allowed, that guild can be trained too. Nobody can "take it over", as it's a constant battle to hold the position AND to get the kill on the NPC after it spawns. In many ways this is the most exciting gameplay possible in PvE EQ. You need constant awareness and coordination; it creates dynamics that otherwise don't exist.

If training is not allowed, then those people simply get banned. It's not hard. Also note that if Lguk was being fully camped as it eventually was in Classic, there would be hardly anything to train anyway, as people would be constantly killing pretty much everything in the zone. That is what a group should be doing anyway, were the game centered around group vs group play -- people would be moving around killing things for exp and then getting back to the Evil Eye spawn point (or whichever item spawn points they want to try and hit) in time for it to pop.

And finally, if it's decided to have a shit game without any form of actual battling over content and without dynamic gameplay, that doesn't mean /list needs to be different than the Play Nice Policy which existed in 2000 era EQ.
