It is not a bannable offense. Its only an issue if you are actually maintaining a list and mislead people. If you're not maintaining a list, there should be a crowd ready to go as soon as you leave because its up in the air at that point.
In other words, the only problem arises if you tell someone "you're next" and then when you're done you instead give the camp to someone else when the original person is there and waiting.

This is correct ... by the rules
as given to us in the forum by our volunteer staff gods ... but it's important to remember that those same gods reserve the right to rule however they want.
They
generally rule consistently with past GMs, and this
is the server where the staff let TMO monopolize camps for months at a time, so there is a strong precedent for "the current camp holder gets to do whatever the crap they want when they leave (except lie about who is next)" ... but, crucially, there is no
Camp Rules quote saying that.
So as much as I think people waiting out of zone for a camp are lame ... and even though I've personally "forgotten" to tell people who were next in line out of zone in favor of letting the person who's actually there have it (on Blue) ... I'd still recommend caution when "messing with the list". The only true rules here are the Play Nice Policies, and they can be summarized as "don't be a dick".
If you are a dick with your handling of a list, it could absolutely come back to haunt you ... regardless of what the Camp Rules page says.
