I am bluebie. I like the points Red players make. I see the draw for pvp. I tried Red years ago. Was having fun in a duo until our first pvp encounter. We rolled there asses and it felt great. The problem is they came back. There was seemingly nothing we could do but keep fighting until one side quit. There was no winning.

The manastone example sounds so good but it doesn't end with you killing him.. What do you do to keep the camp and not have your session turn into on giant grief fest on both sides? I've heard corpse camping but that sounds not fun and unreliable.

If you are the one that dies and want to just cut your losses and leave, you can call "LNS" (loot and scoot) under the current rules. If both sides want to keep fighting, then you keep fighting until 1 person dominates that spawn. Survival of the strongest baby. If you can't hold the spawn by yourself, then call in friends to help you. Having the option to fight for the spawn must certainly be better than the alternative which is waiting for 1 single person who presumably has no life and is unemployed to graciously give up their poopsocking agenda. No one person or group of people should be allowed to hold down camps like this; especially high value, limited timeline camps... all while doing so semi-afk and uncontested.

But this scenario also brings up certain PVP rulesets which would help:

I am of the opinion that the less rules in place, the better. Players will govern themselves! Obviously blatant hacking is still bannable. Corpse camping SHOULD be allowed. Training SHOULD be allowed. Everything will get sorted out in the end, and the STRONGEST will win.

Also, the dreaded Item Loot which many people are scared to speak of. I think it would be a healthy deterrent in these types of situations which stops the super twink griefers in their tracks. It may not turn into a grief fest because one side may start to consider the consequences of keeping the fight going.
