That's the problem - everyone wants to quote GMs/rules, instead of "don't be a dick". These aren't complicated matters.

Someone camping for hours, knows the timing, and goes LD - who cares if it was 19 minutes or 21 minutes - even if you got 1 PH kill in that time, don't be a dick.

Someone goes to help a newb for 10 minutes - don't be a dick.

Group wipes and is regathering, and just needs 5 minutes to get rezzes out - don't be a dick.

All those long rules could easily be shortened.

The problem is that the rules are the only things that matter, because people are dicks. That is the harsh reality.

Technically or not, it's about perception and douchebaggy-ness.
I know it was mine. I know I was was there and back before the 6min cycle was up.
The debate was over the perception of ownership. His position was that because my character wasn't physically there, I was no longer in position of the camp. It didn't seem to matter to him that I hadn't left the zone, hadn't logged out, and could, in fact, still see my pet standing on the beach as

In the end, it's not about 'technically'. It's about who can be the bigger dick.
So next time, that lowbie in need of a favor gets ignored because I won't be willing to run 10 seconds away from my camp in between PH's to give him a hand.

This isn't about being a dick vs not being one. Bottom line is, I was in the zone and you were not, in fact, no one was except me and my friend. So, he wanted to take the AC camp and we did and 5 minutes after we were camping morby pops in claiming it is his. So take a step back a second, I was in the zone with my friend and we were the only two there, so should we believe someone knowing people camp out at AC all the time to try and snatch and open camp? I think not. My stance is and was he was lying since I had no previous knowledge of his /ooc I am relogging from AC or wtf ever the SS says.

Face it, people lie all the time on this server and I can't just give up an open camp because someone claims to have went LD.

It would be great if you could make group/tell logs public in cases like these. The lulz alone would be reason enough.

Stop being right [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. I want to believe that adults know how to behave like adults.

Atually, it most certainly is.

You're right, if you go by the rules, that IS the bottom line, that still make you a raging faggot for it.

This is all just trying to justify it to yourself as "He could have been lying!" when you know damn well he wasn't lying, you know you saw the /ooc saying he was logging out, and you know you decided to take the camp during that opening. You acted like a faggot. I mean, you had every right to it, but don't try and act like it wasn't an act of raging faggotry.

This is so true. It's a good thing the PH wasn't already dead and the person returning from a necessary quick-log had no idea when the respawn was to happen, else you might have had to think a little bit.

I handled it all in say, and the guy was very understanding about his case...

As far as lulz goes, there wasnt much. Just two people having a small disagreement and unfortunately it eventually involved me.
