I mean, you're objectively wrong by established rules surrounding how camps work. And I hardly see how it is my responsibility to track down whomever killed a mob at a vacant camp. And is the subsequent KS of two giants before retreating to his two camp something you side with as well?
you really crying over a fucking ice giant camp? normal person would just move on..

wonder who the child is.

OP, you're an absolute child for not communicating with Fragmented.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection

This server is a community. Yes, there are rules for establishing and holding camps. However it's expected that adults play this game and will communicate with each other to facilitate in a positive way. Fragmented is completely justified in his "wtf" (excessive reaction and he's in the wrong for that, no doubt). You are in the wrong for just showing up and just taking a spawn that was down, it's a scummy move and this whole thing could have been avoided had you not pulled this scummy move. Please grow up and use language to communicate with people.

Wait, let me try this, it might resonate better:

If you use your words, Santa will bring you a new toy for Christmas!

Truth. Just because the rules back you up, doesn't mean it justifies the lack of communication.
Typical case of hiding behind a rule set to mask your own childish behaviour.

I kiss you.

But the rule doesn't back him up. It literally says that what he did was wrong.

OP, you were wrong.

Correct move: see 2 camps are taken by 1 player, ask that player which one they want to concede to you. They have to concede one, which you can then take.

Yup, your excerpt actually sums it up quite perfectly....

How long did you wait before the mob popped before you killed it? If the mob was dead when you showed up and you killed it as soon as it popped without even giving the person a chance to take down what they clearly were camping, you're in the wrong.

As others have said, this is a case of bad communication. While it's true that you can contest the camp since it would be considered two separate camps (depending on guide and how they feel that day), you have to communicate that you're contesting and give the original camper the option of which to take. Obviously he would take the camp of 2, but you can't just roll up on a cleared spawn and steal it as soon as it pops.

After stating this, his buddy Scrody shows up and sits at the two spawn and he plops down next to me at the single spawn, ready to nuke down the ice giant when he pops:

situation

As there are no GMs on, I humbly submit this to RnF in hopes of getting some clarification. Are all three ice giants a single camp making me the asshole here? Or is the single spawn a separate camp and Fragmented is in the wrong?
Fragmented and his brother are not three years old. They have been on this server for many years. Never heard them have a 'tantrum' or 'outburst'. Usually doing all of the port work when Hydra was still a thing.

If someone has something like this, ask to share, go somewhere else or come back later. If they don't want to share, pick up your bricks and move along. It takes time & persistence to get the things you want in EQ... praise be. They had to eventually put in instances which ruined EQ.

It's about the only value to be had in valueless pixels.
