I think we have enough time to work this out in a civil manner and hopefully get as many people stones as possible. And that doesn't just include our guild. Think of it like this, although our guild groups a lot together, and most groups I'm in have at least half GC in it, we still group with other people from other guilds that may be our friends or just a pug group. It still would benefit each player to help another player out get loot, you never know. I'm sure people think of it in different terms and that's fine, opinions are allowed. I just feel on a server like this with a very healthy and helpful community we should share. And so many people are complaining how big our guild is, but that's because people want to be in it, and they want to help other players. So they are very loyal to our guild and to each other. I'm sure this will work out in the end.

My qualm is as follows: In classic there was at least one way potentially to have the camp leave the hands of the people who had been on it for days at a time - patch day. Guide Drommund's ruling in this situation is that patches also have no influence on losing the camp - if the server comes down for a patch be it 5 minutes, 30minutes, 6 hours or 3 days if the person who had the camp pre-patch is back at that camp within 10 minutes of server up they have full rights to continue camping it. Seems a little silly to me, tbh.

You aren't getting it Magicflow, if the server came down for 6 hours, we would have lost the camp to you because apparently you were the first person in the camp... It was only because the server down time was under the linkdead timenframe we got the camp back. Not that the fact I got experience and engaged the mob first. It was just a simple loophole in the rules, it's part of politics in every sense. You were quoting the rules before the server went down, and I quoted that rule back to you. And you said it wasn't considered a LD. The simple fact that the server was going down wasn't my fault, on my end I was forced off the server and came back within the time frame to claim my camp. After I saw the way people reacted that evening it changed my whole outlook on the camp. You made us very mad and it was very unfair. Some of my guild members got out of line, but we worked that out internally. A lot of people were out of line that night, I would prefer if you could understand what happened and why it was fair and just leave it behind.

When I asked Drommund if the same ruling would have applied if the server had been down for 6 hours he said yes. Therefore the majority of what you just posted above is nonsense, unless he changed his mind again after I left (wouldn't shock me, of course).

This isn't about our particular situation Pikler. It's about people being able to camp something indefinitely, without even the same potential for a camp changing hands that live servers had.

I think it's pretty bogus to be able to pass a camp on to someone else when another person has been physically present at the camp before them.

Why wait days to camp a manastone? Go farm something else worth a lot, sell it, then buy a manastone. Takes far less time. Jesus, grow a brain please.

FINALLY someone states the obvious.

Thanks Sponge!

My only stressor in all of this was the threats, the KS's that did happen and generally bullying by higher guilds per say.
