Munchkin trying to steal EE camp - Page 3

Ok, but what if I am keeping everything clear?

edit: and would it be any different if I wasn't keeping everything clear, but was keeping both rooms where they spawn clear?

edit2: How about what happened to me the other day: I was camping the assassin for a mask, duoing it, and we had cleared the spawns and were chillin in the safe room nearby. Next time I go to the assassin spawn (well before they were next due to spawn) there were 2 people sitting there directly in the room. I told them that I was camping it and had them leave - but according to the rules I'm seeing here, had I given up the assassin spawn when I left to go meditate in a better spot?

Personally, I would side with you in this case....
If you are constantly clearing the 2 spawn rooms but it is a iffy situation and am glad I don't have to make such rulings.

If people would always do the courtesy of doing a camp check this wouldn't be an issue. Then at least somebody could ask nicely to take over one part of a multi-camp instead of going there unknowingly (or in some cases spitefully).

But we all know this Utopia doesn't exist...

Yet another scenario and good example!
They were being sneaky and didn't CC. But I am assuming that you guys were also there for exp? Or a quick AFK? Otherwise if you are only in the zone for a specific item and nothing else I would stay put. So not asking for a CC isn't actually breaking any player made rules and this could have been an honest mistake and if they honestly didn't see you at camp, what can you say to that?
It's shitty I know...

(Glad I'm not a GM....)

If I was there for something so rare I would not move until I got it, but that's just me.

I do that camp for exp with 4-5 other people so if I lost a single spawn I wouldn't personally care...

Camp check's aren't fool-proof either, because there's always that one guy who thinks he can kill 5 named with his 2 person group and keeps calling all 5 named while his buddy dies and his cousins roomate is logging a cleric on in like 10min BUT I STILL HAVE THE CAMP!!!~

As for the training thing, its not too clear what that was all about but "accidentally targeting a mino" wouldn't really hold up in eq court after the previous events. Imagine eq court on daytime tv? i'd watch that.

If someone shows up to a camp and the mob and ph are MAGICALLY dead or in the case of the Ishva all the mobs on the way are clear and all rooms empty around they know its camped. They are purposely playing dumb

agreed

The original spirit of the camp notion is respecting a spawn that a person or group is specifically sitting at waiting for it to spawn and got there before you.

If you are sitting in Drelzna's room and not leaving only killing the 3 spawns that is a camp.

If you are clearing Najena, Drelz, and Rathyl rooms and someone gets into the drelzna room and sits down you should be sol. You weren't camping at all you were farming.

Camping should be respected. Farming deserves none.

If I roll up to something I need and the PH is down I will begin my camp. If they come back I will usually let them keep it assuming it is understood that they are going to sit there and camp it.

I think it's cool that manastone is in the game but it should probably be changed to No Drop.

this is where the argument of "have to be there the whole time to get the spawn" breaks down, but w/e -- guess it's time to put the evil eye on rotation also

If someone shows up to a camp and the mob and ph are MAGICALLY dead or in the case of the Ishva all the mobs on the way are clear and all rooms empty around they know its camped. They are purposely playing dumb and should have extra punishment!

A case were a person could argue legitimate confusion is them going to a mob with all spawns around it up and the actual mob or PH are up. I understand some people are camping things they actually get XP for and need meditate a little bit between some spawns longer then repop.

Why would you make the guy sit there for the full 18 or 21 or 28 or whatever minutes between each and every spawn? That just seems vindictive. When I am camping a named spawn I am camping everything else in range too - I have one spawn in particular I'm after and I'll give up any of the others, but why make me sit at one spawn for the whole time?
