Agreed. Generally speaking if you see a PH down, you check in /ooc to see if someone was camping it. You can /w all burning to see if there is a 60 enchanter or something outside and /t them.

Chardok has operated under the unofficial player agreement that people can gate, train out, or /q mobs for years. It was the same way in 2020, when I made this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS3uoIHTu_c

Unofficial player agreements do arise in certain zones. It works like this:

1. A clever player finds a method of clearing a specific mob in a more efficient manner.
2. Another player learns this method.
3. Both players who employ this method become respectful of the method, and apply that respect to new players employing the same method.
4. Rinse/repeat steps 2 and 3 as new players come into the zone and learn the method.

I am not here to argue whether or not the PnP protects these kinds of unofficial player agreements. I am simply pointing out this phenomenon does occur organically in P99, and people tend to go with the flow.

While you may not be reprimanded by a GM for moving into another person's camp when they simply gated the faction hit, you will be breaking the unofficial player agreement.

If you feel very strongly about how Chardok operates, you can attempt to change this unofficial player agreement. You won't be making friends this way, but you can try.
