AFK camping ... means letting your pet kill something, over and over, while you are afk. This is frowned upon.

AFKing between spawns on a 16 minute camp? Not afk camping..

That answers that.

You all need to wake up and find some logic here. The only time someone should be allowed to take the mob from someone sitting on top of its spawn point is if they don't respond when the mob pops. Otherwise there is no problem sitting there keeping a mental reminder when to come back to a spawn that is notorious for taking countless hours.

We all know none of you will sit there for 16 hours straight, staring at an empty spawn point, that you will eventually have to afk, probably to poop. And if you don't have a sock handy, well, you might just have to do it during that 16 min window where some random person may or may not ask you if you're camping it.

Basically, respect others and play nice. I figured it was obvious that the rule regarded afk pet exp'ing, perhaps not.

Don't knock on the guy for having things to deal with for 15 minutes at a time in life, regardless of what they may be. You all would be finding something to do if you were camping Gynok, whether it be porn, tv, wife porn, whatever.

Same [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Well homework, rather. I was very worried that the camp would get jacked while I was AFK, but not with Nib's clarification, no need to worry.

EDIT:
Ellan, I think the point that was trying to be made about people not caring about your real life, is that its pretty much irrelevant. I would not treat you any differently than any other player who has no job, no wife and no kid. Having these things changes nothing and entitles you to nothing, inside the world of EQ.

Now, whether or not thats what you intended to say with your original post, who knows. I'm not claiming that.

Nice [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Someone logged in just as I was expecting him to spawn, but he was very polite and even helped me by keeping an eye out on the red con smuggler [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If someone is sitting in a cleared room they apparently have the situation under control. Sending threatening tells does not help anyone.

Thanks for the input Nilbog
