OF COURSE guilds have shared accounts, but that's not a bot (automated character), which isn't allowed. You've completely missed the point and it's moronic to suggest someone doesn't know about shared accounts. Don't be a DSM.

Many people call shared accounts "guild bots" or "bots" on P99. People generally don't use the term "bot" to mean automated characters on P99, since it is banned anyway. You would know this if you played P99 and raided. Doing a quick look through my guild discord channels, Kittens, Vanquish, and Fuse all use the term "bot" for shared accounts. You were in kittens.

The discussion was about a guild using 18 accounts to perma camp something on a 5 minute respawn. 18 actual players, either in rotation for the spawn (classic play nice policy), or DPS racing (classic EQ for the first year of the game).

As already stated, it would be a huge improvement to the server if the classic rules were followed and guild tried to dedicate 18 people to try and hold a camp down. Even with 18 people a single guild would never completely own the camp, particularly with DPS racing.

Right now 1 single person gets to monopolize a camp. If 18 people were needed, that's 17 other camps in the game now open. Which is of course why no guild would ever do that. Even with 18, anyone else could still get in the rotation, or with DPS racing any solo SK would be able to come along and simply press their button faster on the spawn than those 18 other people.

If 18 guild members were holding down a camp, most people would call that monopolizing. You keep playing symmantic games so you don't have to admit being wrong. Even on P99, perma-camped camps have changed hands. I told you this before. Shiny Brass Idol camp was perma-camped for years, but it still changed hands. Sometimes people go afk, don't get a replacement, etc.
