Again, I'm not referring to engaging a mob that has spawned, but the time in between mob spawns. Hadden is a great example because of the length of his respawn. Is it AFK camping if the camp is cleared, Hadden is down, and you go AFK while the 5 hours pass that you are waiting for him to respawn? Are you camping the Hadden camp? Yes. Are you AFK? Yes. Does this mean you get kicked to the select screen despite following other rules that are in place on the server? Yes/No?
Personally i think they should drop this afk kick rule, its just... if youre afk after the mob pops, someone can take it and its QQ for you.

That's how it exists for regular camps right now. In fact, even a roll call exists to see if the raid force that has claim is AFK or not.

In essence, what you've described is how it currently works for camps and raid targets alike. The camps are just extremely long for raid targets.

Well if GMs dont ply in to QQers that you took their mobs cuz they went to take a shit or whatever phony reason they come up with to justify they were afk camping, thats good. Cuz ive seen plenty of AFK camping at Hadden. And of course youd be afk camping, who in their right mind is gonna stay in front of a screen alert for 5 hours straight.

But thats not the main meat of my post, which was that people can perma-lock mobs and pass them on to their buddies.

Perhaps, Taxi, you missed key phrases such as "I think" and "it seems". My speculation was presented as a counterpoint to Supreme's speculation. Supreme's speculation was presented as a point of fact, which it is clearly not. None of us know why Nizzarr is doing what he's doing except Nizzarr.

I do understand the meanings of words and I tend to choose them carefully.

Yea so youre positive 80 or 90% that Nizzar quit after suggesting rulesets because he was like lol, my evil plan has been unleashed, now let them simmer in their juices for a couple of months, and then for the finale, the masterstroke, , the finish him, CAMP ROTATE! MUH HA HA!!! Theyll never recover from this crippling blow.

No, of course I'm not positive, which is why I explicitly included phrases like "I think" and "it seems".

Unlike me, you seem to be using the word "positive" loosely. Positive means admitting of no question. Your phrase "positive 80 or 90%" (clumsy, nearly illiterate) is similar to a phrase like "a little bit pregnant". These are boolean conditions. One is either positive or one is unsure. My facts were stated as facts and my thoughts were stated as thoughts.

No, I don't particularly envision Nizzarr as an evil Dick Cheney figure dismantling regulations for fun and profit. As I stated, I don't think he has much vested interest in either his new guild or this server. Nizzarr was in uber guilds on live and I suspect that he couldn't really care less about much of this except the ire he feels toward his former guildmates.

Well youre positive enough to make accusations. So its ok if i say "I think" and "it seems" that George Bush was directly responsible for planes flying into the WTC? Cuz... it sure looks like it! I think!

See, now were getting somewhere in this R&F thread.
