There was no situation untill Cazic created it. How can you "claim" a camp if you are not present in it? And elsewhere exping/PLing/farming in the zone? You cant.

Because as was stated, there was no one else vying for it.
The quoted section explained exactly how low to hold more than one camp provided there was no one else around. You didn't call the CC. had he known there was someone else interested in it, he would have sat there for it as far as I can tell. You didn't call the CC, so by the rules you didn't give him a chance to claim it as his. It doesn't matter if he wasn't clearing trash (that he didn't need to either I might add), and that he wasn't there.
I'm not saying I like the camp claiming rules, just saying that as they are written Phallax is in the wrong because he didn't give the CC to let the OP claim it.
I mean here's how *I* would have the camp rules: "You aren't there, you can't claim it". Simple as that. Unfortunately, the way the rules are written you need to courtesy CC it, which at times is sort of silly. I mean if you aren't there you shouldn't be able to hold it. That being said, there are some times when courtesy CCs are nice. If I go off to pity rez someone in the zone, come back and some asshole has stolen my camp because they didn't call a CC, I feel I am justifiably pissed (and yes I have that happen more often than you would think). My favourite place to farm is uguk. I farm it a lot. When I go there I run timers and could snag pretty every rare in the zone if I wanted to. If someone is already at a camp tho, or plops down on one of my timers tho, I don't care. I wasn't there, and don't hold a presence at a spot -- too bad for me.
