Munchkin trying to steal EE camp

[mylz17]

In classic you also had to share orc1 if a second group wanted to fight there as well. That doesn't mean any player who did that wasn't a jackass. Gimme a break citing official server rules about "there are no camps" and all that shit. There are. Just because they aren't official doesn't mean they don't exist. It's sorta like, it's not a rule for me to not call my coworker a dumbass because she's slow as shit at everything she does, but I'm not gonna say that to her, and if I did, I'd be a jackass.

There are server rules, and there are also not-being-a-jackass courtesies that every normal person abides by. Not demanding to share orc1 is one of these don't-be-a-jackass courtesies. As is not trying to perch at a clear camp trying to cite proximity as a claim on a mob that has already been killed.

You are comparing apples to oranges. Camping a PH/named mob isn't quite the same as camping an XP camp. Either way, it all boils down to you left your camp. That's why it's called a camp in the first place. You don't leave your camp with the fire burning... you'd be starting forest fires!! :P

Maybe it was different on your original Live server, but on the two I played on... if you aren't at your camp, it's not your camp.

What's to say Munchkin wasn't camping EE for 5 hours before you showed up but went LD? Now you took it and tell him you want it for the next hour. He was there first but wasn't there when you were there. What do you say now? Is it your camp or his camp????

In this scenario, by the rules it would be my camp. However, by courtesy and playing nice, it would be his camp. No one's arguing rules here. Just because you're following the rules doesn't mean you're not being a jackass. There's a system of etiquette you follow in a community game like EQ. Without fail, those who follow that etiquette are always the ones who know how to get along well with others. Those who ignore it and fall back on technicalities are those inevitably without friends and who don't really grasp the nature of EQ.

Anyway, just stirring the pot as rants & flames has been noticeably empty. He died once to my mistargeted pet train and once to some random act of fail on his part and left the zone, so no harm was done in the end to those on the side of not being a jackass. And it's bed time now so lets get this up to 5+ pages before I wake up shall we?
