Found my first a-hole on the Blue Server

Good lord I'm glad I stopped playing this game. I'm almost done forumquesting, too.

Following this logic: If I ran around porting between spawns that I had exact timers on - I could beat all the noobs out of their measley camps by claiming "well no one was camping it so it was FTE"

Yes, exactly, you could do that. But in reality no one does that (except maybe on Red), because there aren't lots of highly desirable camps just sitting around open.

The rules are all about sharing. If you want to go kill King Crush, then port and kill Chief Goonda in West Karana, then gate up to Everfrost to kill Karg IceBear, the game lets you. Why wouldn't it? No one else wants those mobs (if they did, you couldn't do what I just described), so why not let anyone kill them?

But as soon as two people want the same spawn, we have rules to handle that. The Wizard in this scenario followed all those rules, and the OP is calling him an asshole for following those rules.

That type of shit is why people don't stick around. Because sweatlords act shitty and then people defend them by invoking the loopholes in the rules of the server.

First off, the rules are the way they are because we have volunteer-only GMs, not because the staff is malicious.

Second, you're acting like this isn't about two humans playing a shared game, and both wanting some resource in the game ... but that's all it is. The game itself has rules about how to handle such disputes, but the OP doesn't agree with those rules, and thinks he (as a person) deserves this virtual resource more than another human, in spite of those rules. That's all that's going on here.
