I don't agree. If you'll take him at face value on what I consider a non-contentious point, he was bound at king safe hall. That means that he could have gated in or even logged in for the first time just minutes before beginning to clear the camp. And having spent levels 29 to 42 in Lower Guk, I can vouch for the fact that King is rarely camped by a group. It's entirely possible he had no idea that a group had just wiped there. If you arrive at a vacant camp with a full respawn, I don't believe you're obligated to call a CC for it. I also don't believe the Divinity group would have had any right to actually claim King in a CC, anyway, given that they were not there at the moment.

It sucks, but it happens all the time -- you wipe, and by the time you re-gather, your camp is taken. At least in my estimation, it's not really poor form on the part of the new party claiming the camp. I don't see anything wrong with what the enchanter did -- I really don't. I just see him trying to accommodate a group. If he had told them to piss off, and that he now had the camp, they likely would have gone somewhere else and never would have been there to steal the King in the first place. For his generosity, he was awarded with aggravation.

I really don't mean to point fingers, because in the end, everyone did what was right, and I don't think it's fair to condemn wrongs that were righted. But I don't believe it's fair to crap on Shewz. I don't know him in-game, and I actually have had much better experiences with Divinity than WI -- so believe me when I say that I'm not biased. I just feel like he's being victimized due to the overwhelming bias most people have against plat-farming solo'ers, when in reality, he was trying to accommodate the group and keep everyone happy.
