The quillmane camp will be FTE since the spawning technique is a well kept secret and few people on the server know how it works. I got no clue how it works so the way id camp quillmane is to just find one spot I know it spawns and wait patiently. I heard that the killing of placeholders is just a wives tale on it.

False - I've camped quillmane for over 40 cloaks. It is known. As mentioned the exact walk through is on the wiki.

Also, the PH is @ 1 /loc, while quillmane can spawn in three DIFFERENT locations.

ALSO, ALLLLL of the named in zone share this same PH... which is why its absolutely ridiculous to call this a camp. This will never... EVER happen.

Known by some people vs widely/universally known. Quillmane is the former, pretty obviously.

I apologize. I actually had a devious plan to explain why its FTE but it backfired horrendously. Anyway it involves the rules on camping a spawn not shared in the same coordinates. Its too difficult for a CSR to make strict rules. Otherwise there would be petitions on people who innocently kill the horse.

I don't see how mistakes is a real problem. Taking away the GM sanctioned sniping of someone camping something intentionally is the goal here....

Of course people passing might see it and kill it, and those camping it would have to keep letting others in the zone know. It is about intent.... if someone takes a quill spawn accidentally, no big deal....just spawn another.

But having people go "lolz, you camping it? GMs said you can't, so, gonna go sit in one of the spots lol". Now we are talking different scale.

The current GM ruling is just a license for jerkbaggery (as I ran into the other day).

The goal should be to have rules that keep others from tromping on the stuff other players are trying to do. Having a license to snipe a spawn being triggered by someone ACTIVELY camping PHers every 30 seconds is ridiculous. The worse kind of lawyerquesting that goes against the play nice policy.
