You might better off finding an area with less spawns. It's really easy for someone to say you can't hold the camp because most of the mobs are up, even though you're well within your rights to camp a single mob. Still, where you're choosing to do it is asking for trouble.

Server guidelines are very clear on how a camp can be held. (Don't have the link on hand but it covers how often mobs must be killed per camp, what defines a legitimate "camp" (static mobs, etc) and your ability to keep spawns cleared fully. You are even allowed to leave a camp but returning before the mobs spawn again keeping the claim - this is legal (e.i. you move to a camp that looks free and they come back without before mobs popped again it is still their camp) Sadly asking for a CC does not always work because it's not a required server rule to hold a camp. Responding to camp checks is a "do unto others" kind of thing and 100% optional. Nothing against the rules to not respond but it can get very frustrating and should be done out of respect imo

Yeah, actually, they were.

Just not the way they are done here, with "CC?" or something in /ooc. People would go up and ask or send a tell and ask "Hey, are you camping/is your group doing Lord Grimrot/Frenzy/whomever?" Sometimes you got someone asking about something in OOC.

What's not classic is players casually just steamrolling through or camp jumping people, and being inconsiderate dicks about it, and how that doesn't seem to hold any consequences. Few people seem to give a shit about rep.

I remember when people were mocked in tunnel for adding "pst" to their auctions. No shit pst. These kids and their myspace abbreviations.

But, on point, on this server you have to pick your shots. Soloing is always dicey imo. When I solo, I go places where no one cares about. Worth not dealing with grief. In general, this is why I prefer groups. Hard to steamroll a well-ballanced, fully operational deathstar, err, grp.

Terris Thule had camp checks in Sebilis during Kunark, sounds classic to me!
