Mob Camping Rules

[Wudan]

First of all - killing stuff for your alt is BS. You might as well start boxing... not much difference there...

Once you log off its free for all! Once the corpse is opened for loot it is FREE to loot! Everything else is BS. You wanna loot the corpse you have killed? Well fucken loot it in the time window you were give by devs. If you dont make it then dont be angry if someone else loots it. This is not Ninja looting! It is legal looting of corpse that the original "owner" did not loot in given time window.

I would not wait around the camp, If I knew someone is killing it to relog to an alt, evethough I think it sucks.
If I run through Ro and see an AC corpse and no1 around, Im gonna loot it.
If I find bags full of gear on the ground....I will not touch them.

So some asshat is permacamping some rare lore item with his lvl 60 main. He has an army of level 1 accounts/bazaar mules logged out there. Every time the item drops he puts it on a mule for later sale.

I honestly think allowing that would be absurd, but being that you can have as many accounts as you like on a free server it wouldn't be difficult to do, and would allow someone to stash an unlimited number of lore items and hold a camp forever.

Personally I think if you are doing the log out game anyone should be able to loot the corpse. FFA.

Once he logs out to switch to the alt, he loses claim to the camp.

Ask Perun how that worked out for him.

People seem to be looking at it from two different perspectives:

One perspective is from that of a non end-game player on non-end game drops.

One perspective is from that of an end-game player on end-game drops.

Both are correct depending on the situation.

No, it is not. Ninja looting is ninja looting whether it is a raid item or a mask of deception.

[Brut]

Flabbergasted at how some folks think there is somehow some form of justification for jabbing stuff off the corpse of a mob they have in no way contributed to killing.

I mean, no. That's just not how it works. No consent, no touchy.

[choster]

Just wow.

All the arguing about the inherent "right to be a dick" in the face of clear rules to the contrary is really staggering. Why not just leave it at, stealing is unethical and you shouldn't do it, and then the folks that still think they would do it can get back to strangling kittens or whatever else it is you people do in your spare time.

It isn't a black and white issue to me. There are various shades of grey depending on circumstances.

I don't think the OP's scenario is an example of ninja looting. You do. So we will simply have to agree to disagree.
