Someone took my spawn and I partitioned . . But no response

My understanding of being new to this server and reading a lot of posts on these forums and p99 reddit and p99 reddit circlejerk. It really depends on which GM you get and what mood they are in and if they are friends with the person involved. I also realize that p99 isn't live and doesn't follow classic live rules. I have had, on a few occasions, high lvls come into my groups zone (najena, sol a) and clear it repeatedly for hours hindering our exp. And the general consensus is that the only rule that stands is FTE.

First off, game != forums. I can all but guarantee your experience in the game will be MUCH better than the forums will lead you to believe, because the forums tend to concentrate negativity. When you read things in the forum about how all the GMs only help their friends (or whatever), take it with a grain of salt.

Second, you may not be aware but there is a rule against zone disruption. If you're leveling in say Najena and some higher levels come in and make it impossible for you to level, A) say something (the vast majority of players will leave a big enough area for you to level in alone), and B) if they don't leave you some mobs, petition them for disruption.

Also remember FTE rules don't apply to camps in dungeons: regardless of the zone disruption rule if you have a particular camp taken no one can take it from you, whatever level.

I agree with this. I just started a couple weeks ago and from what I see on the forums, it seems like everyone hates eachother, but luckily in game, most people are pretty helpful and friendly.

What even is the punishment for taking spawns? SOE never did anything about this for me back in live.

Why do I have a feeling this thread is going to turn into something about if the AC is a camp or FTE?

Llandris is wrong and right at the same time though, because it's really whatever the fuck the staff tells you at the time is how it goes. Always been like that. There's a good case for Seafuries being campable. So if someone ever tries to take mine, they are gonna lose a DPS race.

I came on here to get an answer to a question. I have received that answer. If i caused "negativity" I apologize for that. Really the only thing negative about this entire thread is the fact that I was treated very poorly by a mean, and probably angry person in the game. But, this is the only experience i have ever had of this nature in the 2+ years I have played, and I did not say otherwise. Thanks to the majority of folks who contributed seemingly helpful information and opinions. To those of you who weren't quite so kind and helpful - shine on you crazy diamonds.

Well I mean Guide Llandris is wrong. So there's that. Nothing is purely FTE outside raid mobs.

Wrong. I guess I should have been more clear in my explanation. If you are sitting on a single spawn point, then sure, you can "camp" it. But if you and another player are camping 1 spawn point each, and fighting over a 3rd spawn point (that is not camped by someone), that NPC then becomes FTE. Don't expect to sit on multiple spawn points and claim it as a camp, you get 1 spawn point, the rest are FTE.

Thank you for clearing that up. I didn't wanna see Seafury island = 100% FTE being taken as gospel unless the staff want to implement very specific rules for the island, which I strongly believe there's no reason to.
