Are open areas FTE

[kotton05]

Perhaps they could be enough in some situations but you have no clue what he’s telling the GM and an actual recording of what is happening will allow less room for lies or twisting the truth. Therefor getting a more accurate ruling.

Ran into a very rude dark elf trying to claim an entire area of spawns in the hills of Queynos.

The sad thing was watching him sit there letting a pet aggro everything, refusing to group.

Stop trying to make EQ PvP happen. It's not going to happen.

For now, sure. But 15 months down the line and deleveled epic, fungi, buffed monks are slaughtering zones, corpse camping new players, teabagging, etc, green will become as dead as red. Because ya'll don't want pvp, you want to bully people off your server.

It absolutely is. The reason that you put it up is where your confusion lies.

The following is hypothetical to our Qeynos Hills example (I did not remain to watch). Skelly spawns, aggros pet, pet kills skellly. Clearly, pet is FTE, and has done so in a reasonable amount of time. But does this count as a "you" for purposes of the camp rules linked above? Assume the player is not afk but indeed running in game errands.

I'm not a staff member and can't speak for them, but at that point I think that player is likely in violation of a different part of the Play Nice Policy:

3. You may not kill NPC's while you are not at your PC.

It is against the rules to "afk camp" any NPC or groups of NPC's by placing a pet nearby and letting it kill while you are away from your computer. Any other form of "afk camping", such as faction killing, is also against the rules, and you may be subject to disciplinary action.

In addition to this rule, and further explained in section 5, you may not Forage items using any automated program (hardware or software).

And to the rules lawyers: yes it says "at your PC", and technically someone who parks their pet somewhere while they run errands is "at their PC" ... but it also says "Any other form ... is also against the rules."

Even if it didn't, the GMs are the ultimate authorities regardless, so what really matters is "would they be ok with it?"

Practically speaking, it'd be nearly impossible for someone to even catch them doing it if they don't go far to run their errands ... but if they go far enough to get caught, I'd think that'd be far enough away that a staff member would consider it "AFK camping".

Deleveling doesn't have to be allowed, and epics can have level requirements. And thurg armor. very easy to mitigate.

If it was item loot you could loot that fungi and its a lot of fun trying.

If it was sullon rules there would be no deleveled guys, so problem solved too.
