I really don't understand why everyone thinks taking 30 seconds to zone out and in to a zone should just completely negate any work you've done splitting a camp and just make it a free for all to claim it.
From http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2653 which is the ruleset we have to mediate these kinds of disputes among ourselves:

Quote:
1. Going forward, if you intend to hold or claim a camp, your group must retain presence at that camp.
Quote:
4. In order to hold a camp, the player or group must be able to demonstrate the ability to hold the camp without further help.
Enchanter had the claim to the camp after the group wiped due to these server rule. Enchanter did not have the claim to the camp after he zoned due to the SAME RULES.

So do you lose a camp if you kite mobs away if that's how you fight them? So then what is the arbitrary distance you can't exceed to keep the camp? Or how about the details of how you solo the camp isn't relevant as long as you do it in a timely manner?
So then what is the arbitrary time duration you can't exceed to keep the camp?

In an outdoors setting, if you're kiting shit and you can't handle it and have to zone, you demonstrate an inability to hold the camp, so yes, you lose that camp. And based on the first rule quoted above, yes you probably should be kiting in the general vicinity of that camp to demonstrate your "presence".

Zoning is zoning. It is the end all and be all of leaving the camp. You not only left the camp because you couldn't keep it, you left the ZONE because you couldn't keep it. I think that's pretty damn black and white. You cannot argue you have a "presence" at any camp in the zone if you are NO LONGER IN THE ZONE.
