Mob Camping Rules

[Frieza_Prexus]

Evidence of a claim is an issue, which is why it was addressed early in this thread. The best suggestion is to communicate as best as you are able to anyone who might stumble across your kill within the timeframe it takes to log over.

In your example using the AC, two wrongs don't make a right. As has been shown earlier(subject to some dissent), if you do not kill a mob you do not own the rights.

Coming across someone who might be ninjalooting a corpse is not license for you to participate as well.

Even without evidence, the server logs will always vindicate the owner of the loot rights. Please note, this is mostly an academic discussion. The logistics of actually getting a GM to go log diving are an entirely different discussion.

the best solution is, if u kill a mob, u loot it.

If you need to pass a no drop item to an alt, have a guildmate or a friend guard the corpse for u, until u login.

Simple as that. No confusion, no dispute, no need to bother the GM.

PS: vinx its pretty obvious the story is made up. I already said its an example.

I can't believe this thread is still going.

Of course. No one is disputing that there are other, far smarter, ways to handle it. The thread, however, is about a legal principle regarding ownership of loot rights and the lifespan of those rights.

this conversation is retarded because you should be able to log onto your alt before the corpse can be looted by anyone else anyhow

[Frieza_Prexus]

I think a good number of us are here because we wanted to avoid doing anything substantive or productive today.

[Yanomamo]

An excellent point.

I would petition them anyways for being a faggot, also, post names of the person doing it.

There is no reason not to out ninja looting pieces of shit.

Not sure why this is inciting so much debate. It's not really any different than passing loot to your alt by dropping a backpack of gear in a hidden spot, switching toons, and picking it up. Is it allowed if nobody interferes? Sure. Do you risk someone coming along and taking it just because they can? Absolutely. In that case, does it become a matter of risk versus reward? Yep.

If you are worried you'll have trouble then get a friend to hold the corpse for you while you switch characters. On live I'd done that numerous times at sensitive camps (like the AC in OOT) with a large line waiting behind me. It's generally easier than dealing with the mess that follows if you take the risk and it fails.

And it is different, only the stupid would dare drop a bag of goodies then switch characters while others are in the room lol
