Dojorn was camped BECAUSE his spawn timer was known. He's campable with 15 on the spawnpoint, contrary to how both Div and IB and IB and DA had been competing over him the past few months, even though he's not an aggro mob. Dojo claim is now establish by just how long you feel like having 15 sit on spawn in advance of him actually popping, with no danger of it popping and killing you even though 15 is not even enough to make a reasonable attempt at killing him. Talk about incentive to afk on a spawn point. Easier to poopsock with known spawn timer, not harder.

A randomized full server spawn would only slightly change the dynamic. Both IB and DA would still camp their entire raids at either Solb or Perma, likely Perma, and then just port to mobs in order of quickest to longest kill afterwards. I'm pretty confident that either IB or DA could basically kill Nagafen or Vox, chock the other up to the other guild, and then port immediately to Hate and get to and kill Innoruuk before any other guild got to him even if they had immediately ported to Hate. Both of us simply mobilize too fast. Sure a guild could camp up there and snipe him, but sometimes that already happens with people poopsocking him, so there's no real change. Draco's his own story and CT is clearly not really sockable as you have to clear the zone.

Yes, I totally ignored the part about banning more than 5 in a zone because 1.) it's absolutely retarded to suppose that guilds will never clear fire giants or do planar clears and 2.) the GMs do not have the time, resources or interest in policing a rule like that.
