Lvl 60 killing mobs we are xping / camping for key

[Brittany19]

Hi,
I went to ToFS to get a Rune Etched Wedding Band because I couldn't find it in EC for days.
I read on the wiki that I had to clear mobs to get the Undead Gnoll to spawn so I could move up, so I started doing that. A group got mad at me because I was significantly slowing their exping. Which made me think, come on you can't claim the whole floor, I'm just going to get my key and get out of your hair. The person who was sending me a tell (their ench, can't remember the name) was pretty polite about it, just really disappointed that I was ruining their night.
After a few spawns I still hadn't gotten my key and moved on, so I asked my guild (Azure Guard) what the deal was. It turns out it takes a LONG time to get that key, and that it's conventional for a group to have the whole floor while they get keyed up. I apologized (I think, if not I'm sorry), buffed the group and went back to tunnelquesting for it.
Incidentally, I got a seller as soon as I got back to EC.

tldr version:
- I thought I was gonna be onto the second floor in 5 minutes, so I thought they were in the wrong for being a barrier just to nab a couple extra kills.
- My guild clued me in, I realized I was misunderstanding and their disappointment was understandable.
- I moved on and wished everyone well.

Sorry if this is significantly less dramatic than people were hoping for.

I have a few of these that are unused. Pretty common drop from the wedding. Hit me up this evening on Sibot, Stabbling, or Asphix, and I'll sort you out.

Well... we had a pretty good flame fest going for the dude in the Warren's doing pretty much this same thing. He shouldn't have had to check with his guild. It was a dick move. I expect more from Azure Guard.

We had been talking to this guy for nearly an hour, not able to xp, before he finally relented - I posted while that was happening. We were being ignored after attempting to to talk to him before finally numerous tells got him to realize he was wrong.

Name and shame without juicy screenshots, video, or chat scrolls with a Guide's snarky response on how it would be handled?

2/10. I give one point for the character & guild names accused.

That was me (Fuol, my shaman).
The short version, I wanted to get a Rune Etched Wedding Band for my rogue. I read on the wiki that I had to kill a certain mob on the first floor to move on to the second. When the group complained, my thinking was like "I'm gonna be gone in 5 minutes, you can't roadblock the dungeon and call it your camp."

After awhile (not nearly an hour, it was 2 spawns) I asked my guild for details about the dungeon as I started to worry it wasn't going to be as quick as I thought. They informed me that it takes a very long time and it's customary for a group to indeed be camping the whole first floor. So I apologized, buffed them up and left.

You're level 60 and had to ask your guild how dungeons and camps work? Why not just help them level and ask for loot rights to the key, since they most likely couldnt handle the 2nd floor?

don't mind the lawyers OP, there's no reason to go to TOFS other than exp
