Rules Lawyers

[abazaba]

Can anyone shed some light on Chief / BG camp in Droga? I've seen some claim it as a single camp as long as you keep spwns locked down. Others say it is two camps, forcing you to choose one.

People usually tell me it is a grey area when it comes to this camp. I'm stumped :/

I would call Chief and BGs one camp.

To the OP: I have a bit of disdain for the use of the term rule lawyering. It seems like every one will always be able to make a derogatory term for someone doing something they don't like. If someone trained you and you complained it was against the rules you would be rule lawyering but I doubt your acceptance of the term in that situation.

Anyway, mixed feelings about your Guk example. Primarily because on several occasions I have walked into Guk called a CC and had one person claim half they were doing half the camps, which in addition to being against the server rules is just ridiculous. I made my way to one of the camps and found it completely spawned. I've also seen people call claim to camps that they want and plan to head to but are no where near. Incidents like that make it somewhat infuriating when someone calls a camp and isn't there. However, you only called one camp so unless I showed up at the camp and found it spawned I would probably be fine, even though you should stay at the camp you are claiming.

The two lvl 60s in CB is just dumb. Even if they were powerleveling someone there are of ton of better places to go that aren't occupied by level appropriate groups trying to xp.

I don't think anyone should be forced to stay in one room to be able to claim a camp when the zone is virtually empty. I had been in there for a couple hours by myself except for the one guy soloing at the zoneline. Its absurd to think that leaving the ass/sup room to kill a mob that nobody wanted should be a problem. He was only using that as an excuse. I even said I would stop killing to ritualist if he wanted it but he said he didn't.

I agree its dumb when people try to claim 5 camps when others want them but if they are only claiming 1 and killing it easily it shouldn't matter if you are in that room or not. Sometimes its safer to more convenient to sit somewhere else.

As for the training example. I would never quote the rules because someone trained me. I might go off on them or petition if I had reason to believe it was done intentional but its got nothing to do with the rules and everything to do with it just being a dick move. If someone is jerk enough to intentionally train someone I doubt there being a rule against is going to stop them.
