'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.

Wait. Did she actually try to KS you or was she just clearing trash in the room? There's a difference

I had a situation similar to this a couple days ago. People could give a fuck less about camp checks for the most part.

I was claiming Royals and Noble in Sol B the other day for several hours. and I was sitting on top of the Noble spawn/PH and Amphetamine from Eclipse rolls in charms a mob that was OOR of aggro right as the Noble spawns, I Melee engage it and he starts Mezzing it, then nuking it, sending pet in, then mezzing it again in a repetitive motion making it impossible to pull it back to royals, as I had been for several hours and KS'd my group.

Also, before he rolls in here denying his douche baggery, I'll add it was witnessed by 9 people aside of myself (6 people in the group + 3 people outside healing/mezzing if needed to help a few of us gain some levels). I petitioned because even if it was a Raid target (obviously it isn't) I was First to engage. Even though i had been claiming it...and nothing happened to him, Not a word from a guide/GM. I wouldn't even have cared so much but I've got a friend new on the server and was in attempt to hook him up with one of them necks that drop there for his Necro.

So yeah Shaere, I'd say it seems like the guides/gm's could give a flying fuck anymore about KSing unless it's in the planes.

Exactly, that rants its because he thinks clearing trash in room (for whips and to know the exact time Mal is killed) was a RUSE !

Doesn't sound like she made any effort to KS you at all. Just sayin.
