AFK Camping is not an approved method of claiming a spawn. If someone shouts CC, asks if you are camping, yadda yadda ~ then you need to be able to respond that "hey yeah im here, and im camping this" within a resonable time.

'Reasonable' is extremely subjective, I personally prefer to use the time of repops for that zone *such as upper guk, you have around 17 minutes to respond* since there is no rule saying you can not afk between spawns.

But, thats me. Simply put: put there to answer camp checks and keep a stake on your camp -- otherwise you may as well not even be there.

The issue with what you're saying Hobby is that on previous occasions it has been said that since Ishva is not dependent on a PH, the actual Ishva camp is NOT the mobs in the room. You don't need to clear the mobs to kill the Ishva, so the camp is honestly just waiting on the Ishva to spawn. It is no different than any other spawn - just that instead of 17 or 23 minutes, it is 36 hours. It's really a 1 spawn camp where the PH is the previous Ishva.

Personally, if I were a guide and Shaere were sitting there first and this chick rolled up and tried to snipe it when it spawned she'd be getting a short (maybe 3 day) suspension just because this is pretty blatant douchery imo.

Also, this isn't really AFK camping. When the rules say AFK camping, I'm pretty sure those were referring to the early days of this server when mages and necros were able to park their pets on the other side of a zone at like a single mob spawn point and slowly exp for hours on end while afk. I remember it being a big issue last winter/spring.

Why can't people just be nice about camps? I realize it was never proven that Belabor wanted to take the camp from shaere, but I can't imagine why someone would do that regardless. If I see someone intending to camp something and not clearing the room it's in, if they maintain some sort of physical presence, I'm not going to be a douche and take their camp. It's not like he was purposely keeping Ishva alive forever or doing anything that would affect anyone else. Even if he didn't technically have a valid claim over the camp (which Loke suggests he did, and I think I agree, but let's assume otherwise), who cares? Is it really worth starting a camp dispute over?

TLDR: just play nice.
