Found my first a-hole on the Blue Server

I'm surprised that Loramin of all people seems to not understand the rule.

In this scenario, the Wizard seems to have killed the prior spawn and logged off. OP arrived and waited for the next spawn. That is OP's camp. If the spawn occurs and OP sits there for 10 minutes jot engaging it, THEN someone can engage it. But it is OP's camp until then.

In the PnP, please show how me where it says that sitting down in front of a spawn point (that you didn't kill) grants you exclusive ownership of the next spawn at that point.

What if you had video of your character doing a CC call on the camp in an empty zone?

Some of this is rules.

There is no rule saying that if you do a cc in an empty zone that you get a claim on all mobs in the zone. On P99 the only way to claim a camp is to kill a mob, and until you do that, every unclaimed mob is FTE.

Exactly like the line at the movie theater, except for one thing: maybe get yo ass beat.

Again, the line at a movie theater is defined to work a certain way; if you don't follow the rules, you get in trouble (eg. an ass beating). Same with the "line" at a busy bar: if you don't follow the rule (of trying to get the bartender's attention), the consequence is you don't get a drink. Or if you try to steal someone else's drink, maybe you get thrown out.

P99 is no different: if someone else kills a mob that you were "in line for" (ie. you killed it last, and you didn't leave) you will face a punishment (eg. the staff will give you a warning or suspension).

But if you make up your own rules for any line (eg. "I'm going to wait for my turn at a busy bar" or "I'm going to assume that a mob is mine because I sat in front of its spawn point in an empty zone") you will potentially be disappointed when others don't follow them.

What about the line outside the movie theater you dumpster fire.

I recognize and acknowledge the finesse.

Buddy, if you kill the spawn and then log off (i.e., you leave the zone and the camp) I can now come claim that camp and kill the next spawn.

There's never been a scenario where a GM has responded to a petition and given the camp back to the person who left the zone. It now becomes the new camper's camp. It doesn't matter if the spawns are down when the next person arrives at the camp. If no one is there it's now their camp...as long as they clear the spawns within a reasonable amount of time on respawn. It's really odd that someone who has apparently been on this sever a long time is being obtuse about how the staff views camps.
