I agree with the OP. Holding camps 27/ and price gouging people for epic pieces is scumbag behavior. But If the prices were reasonable, then it wouldnt be a problem. Personally I prefer earning the item myself as opposed to earning plat for someone else to do it for me. In that scenario I am doing far more work than the person selling the MQ. But if I am unable to get the item because its always camped by scumbags, I just wont get the item or the epic and it can rot in their banks.
All that said, I dont really have any solution for this. Humans are selfish by nature and wont change. The behavior will likely continue unhindered by the powers that be. Might lead to players simply quitting game if its not any fun, and ultimately the death of the server.
