It wouldn't be the only 'classic exploit' they left out/removed for the integrity of the server, IF they removed it.

Your server may have had the Guk rules you've mentioned. Mine was dominated by necromancers. I was one of them.

Which server is right, I wonder?

Regardless. What's the big deal? Nobody has said a single thing about this to me until this random post pops up, invoking GM intervention over something many people did all the time on Live servers. Next time, try to talk out a problem with the community instead of circumventing the issue - you want an FBSS - by pointing out an ingame workaround.

I thought that was the purpose of this thread. This is the forums. This is the community.
Nobody is trying to circumvent any issue. Do I want an FBSS? Sure, who doesn't.
Would I want to stack corpses farming a bunch of sashes for days effectively screwing potential frenzy groups over who might actually need the sashes? Hell no.
Like I said, this is not about you or any single person in particular.

Maybe you are right... maybe the main issue here is camp etiquette.
But why is an item even lore if people are just going to corpse stack it. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of making it lore to begin with? <--- This is the whole basis for my argument, and the reasoning for posting it in technical discussions.

Frenzy was always a highly contested camp. Whether it was by a group or by someone soloing it.

Funnily enough i never saw someone soloing it on my server [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Guess the necros there didn't have the guts :3

I'm pretty goddam sick of Frenzy.

I don't really care much about plat, but circumstances require me to. When/if I succeed in my plans, you won't see me anywhere near Frenzy for quite awhile.

I'm not saying I should get a camp whenever I want it, but because of this 'exploit' I would call it, its almost impossible to even have a chance to get certain camps.

Therefore, the issues go hand in hand. This issue allows 1 man to perma camp multiple LORE items until he wants to leave. That isn't right.

I wouldn't care if 1 person soloed the camp if he at least had to leave every now and then to mule his items or sell them. If he wants to do it that way, he should have every right to. This just seems like cheating, which is normally considered an exploit.

Yeah its my favorite camp too, I won't lie. Edit - Mainly because its the one camp I can watch a movie while doing. /popcorn
Still much <3. I don't hate you guys at all don't get me wrong.

On a side note, I've had many chances where I could have stacked a corpse and kept farming it, I just never did out of respect for everybody else who wants a shot at it, whether it be another farmer or a group, and I have always respected the "line".

Unless someone is right there rezzing that body or they've bound closeby, technically they aren't there to hold the camp under the guidelines. It would be an asshat move to do that and play that card, but its still technically kosher.

I'm currently bound in Frenzy.

...I probably shouldn't admit to that.
