6. AFK camping is not respected and is frowned upon, if caught afk camping you will be booted to the character select screen.

Somewhat of a side issue perhaps, but im pretty sure that the reference to AFK camping that you provide from the server rules / policies does not refer to simply going AFK at your camp spot. Rather it is now a rather archaic reference to a problem that was prevalent near the start of the server - that of mages AFK leveling with their pets. Due to changes to pet exp this is now a non issue.

Everyone may talk about poopsocking, but to expect people on 10+ hr camps not to visit the bathroom is laughable.

Can we have clarification on this point? Is it okay to AFK while you wait for a timed mob to spawn as long as you are back to the computer by the time it spawns?

I don't think anybody is debating afk camping as being bad.. pretty sure the thread was about guild monopolization of a camp over days.

This thread, and the 791 threads before it, come down to :
- Make a rule
- Enforce the rule.

Stop with the "I'm going to be so mad at you if you don't play nice." That ends up punishing the players that screw up while the Bad Cop is online, but rewarding the players that are assholes when the bad cop is offline. And by effect, it punishes the players that follow the rules 24/7. And rewards the asshole that /info Amelinda in IRC and finds out her play time.

The world isn't black and white... you can write a rule where somebody with stupid lawyer talk can make it seem like the opposite of its intent.

I think intent / vision of a rule is more important that nitpicking pronouns or verbs in a sentence.

What I still don't understand on p99 is other guilds trying to purposely fuck other guilds over. If it's simply because they don't like each other then ok I guess that's good enough, if its just simply competition to see who the better guild then ok I get the competetion but wouldn't they wanna see who was better with equal gear/circumstances?

Eventually the other guilds are going to get the gear anyway so why even waste the time worrying bout that and not your own shit? If this server doesn't go past Velious with any new custom content then really what is the point?

some people seem think that to win any game internet you have to act like a giant douchebag.
