They have every right to be there as much as anyone else. It is a dick move though, specially when there's many better PLing spots out there that are not in populated zones.

This is one of those cases that people should police themselves rather than having a GM enforced rule.

What they're doing isn't against the rules, but it is a huge dick move.

Don't petition them, just remember who the involved parties are and don't associate with them in the future. This isn't World of Warcraft where you queue up for a dungeon instance comprised of people from all of the servers; this is one server and reputation matters.

I'm not saying that I support PLing in high traffic zones, but to say that PL'ers camps aren't valid is writing your own server rules to suit you and that's not how it works. You're wrong.

Until I see a staff member come down and tell me that my group of leveling lowbies has to respect a PL'er taking up half of the zone, I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing.

GM's will say the same thing - they will just force the PLer to leave some mobs for you instead of killing everything.

PL should not be confined or restricted.

However, the Power Leveler should have enough moral fiber and common decency to not interfere with leveling groups, and/or be informed enough to know that there are MANY zones which work to PL.

Common decency is an uncommon virtue

Agreed, we shouldn't need hard/written rules...but in lawyerquest spirit, if it's not strictly against the rules some people will do what they like.

you don't need any clarification. its camp rules just like any other player in the whole game. they don't specify for PL's cause there is no need, its all the same rules. they get 1 camp thats protected by the rules, and so do you, all other popped mobs are fair game

they can take whatever is up until you call a camp. if they want that camp, and they had been clearing it, they can call that camp and maintain presence in it, then you can choose from another camp, and they can still kill anything else they can find that is not camped. this is really not that hard... the guy here in mistmoore has every right to PL by claiming the pond camp the same way any group could. if a group decided to go claim canyon or GY, then the PL'er would no longer be allowed to pull from those places. This is really not that complicated, nor do i think new rules should be made. its like people who were trying to boot me out of Moat camp in CoM because i wasn't a group and i was just soloing.... nothing matter except the fact that I'm holding it down and camping it. same goes for PL'ers.

i have no idea why you all are acting as if these rules don't already exist. call a camp, hold it down. if they snipe mobs on purpose then petition them like any other asshole who doesn't respect camp rules. they are very clear on the rules. lawyer quest has already been taken care of swish..

Remove exp being split between group members, instead giving everyone the full amount and 90% of the PL, solo, duo, trio issues vanish. Not classic is the new classic.

Why Erica, I know a server you'd really like...
