P99 Etiquette, A Lesson in Five Lines

A: "Hello, are you camping these mobs?"
B: "Why yes sir, I am."
A: "Alright, thank you. Would you like to split the camp?"
B: "No thanks, but I'll let you know when I'm done"
A: "Thank you! Have a nice day."

Exactly, well put!

... unless someone is "camping" more than one "camp" of mobs (which is a perfectly reasonable thing for them to do when no one else is around) and refuses to stop doing so when someone else shows up.

In that case, the dialogue might change a little:

A: "Alright, thank you. Would you like to split the camp?"
B: "No thanks, but I'll let you know when I'm done"
A: "Well, I hate to break it to you, but you're not allowed to claim every Yeti in the Dreadlands for yourself, no matter how twinked you are. Which spawn point would you like to keep?"

Knowing the rules now will be very important on Green when every single individual spawn in Crushbone is camped by a player.

Wait, wait, wait - OP shows up at a camp where the mob was dead, takes the camp without saying anything, then tries to Lawyer-quest in RnF. I'm not saying he is wrong, but i am saying he is - as he puts it - a three year old...i want what i want and i want it now - right OP?

Op is definitely the type of person that makes gms hate their volunteer work.

This is a good example of why Green needs to have no rules and no GM Intervention.

Getting upset over random trash mobs being taken from your camp is quintessential P99 coddled player behavior. Just play the game and kill mobs that you see up. If you kill it first grats, if you can’t kill it first be faster or bring more DPS with you. If you don’t want to race for mobs move to a different location.

Wish it applied to raid mobs too.

A guild of all wizards and rogues would get all the loot.

That being said, you can absolutely "camp" mobs, and you cannot steal another players 'camp'. In general, if the placeholder or placeholders for a spawn are being killed, that 'camp' can be considered held by the player doing the killing so long as they are keeping the placeholders (or the room if there are no placeholders) cleared, within the same zone, do not die or log off. You do not necessarily need to be at the spawn point to call it 'claimed' while it is uncontested, however, if someone else wishes to contest the 'camp' you do need to return to the 'camp' and maintain a presence at or very near the spawn(s) in order to hold it. You cannot hold multiple 'camps' if another group wishes to contest one that you are holding. The player holding multiple 'camps' retains the right to choose which 'camp' to give up.

Please do your best to use courtesy and common sense when interacting with other players in spawn disputes.

Pretty cut and dry OP, sorry you lost at RnF

Three year olds whose vocabulary consists only of the word "MINE!" and nothing else.

Here is the situation: Fragmented is killing all three ice giants outside of permafrost. Great. He can have the two spawn, now that I'm here, I will take the single spawn. I assume this goes without saying because these are two separate camps as there is nowhere you could sit maintaining LOS on all three mobs (which I could be mistaken, please correct me if I'm wrong). After killing the single spawn we come back to a bit of an outburst.

outburst

After stating this, his buddy Scrody shows up and sits at the two spawn and he plops down next to me at the single spawn, ready to nuke down the ice giant when he pops:

situation

As there are no GMs on, I humbly submit this to RnF in hopes of getting some clarification. Are all three ice giants a single camp making me the asshole here? Or is the single spawn a separate camp and Fragmented is in the wrong?

3 mobs within 10 seconds of each other is one camp if you can keep them down. You could break any camp in this game with multiple turns into separate camps if this was the case.

Lguk Lord area would be multiple camps, but considered one camp if you call lord. Because you cant see lords room from the beginning of the hallway doesnt make it 2 camps.

[Worry]

I don't get caught up in camp drama because when it arises it's a good excuse to try out a more obscure zone, so I can't personally comment on the rules here BUT...

Fragmented is a good dude, and I've had multiple positive encounters with him over the years.
