Sounds like the Wiz was there, invis, camping it. You had no see invis and didn't do a CC.

Anyway, lvl 60 raiders need this item so get fucked OP.

I log into The Warrens on my druid, no one else in the zone.


Sounds like you didn't read the first line of OP's post.

What guild was the wizard a part of OP, please let us know from your logs so we can disparage a larger group of people.

He was anon so I am not sure what guild. To answer some questions, yes, I did a /who and the zone was empty when I logged on.

Seems like there is some confusion around the rules but regardless it was still a dick move. My Druid is 31 at the moment and has been spending time in the Warrens a fair amount lately as I still get exp from several mobs in the zone. Many times when I log in there is someone camping the king or I killed him and needed to leave the zone to sell, come back and someone else is there. I don’t try to take back over the camp. Similarly, countless high level character have zoned in, see me sitting there, wish me luck and log off.

I once logged in and no one there and with a couple of minutes a nice level 60 monk came in and said he went LD but wished me luck. I happily gave the camp back to him.

The point I am trying to make is there a right and honourable way to play the game, whether strictly the rules or not, I think most would agree this was not the “right” thing to do.

Well buddy, I have some fantastic news for you. This is prime time to put that druid to good use. There are crocs in CT that are an amazing charm kill camp. You won't want to return to the Warrens anytime soon.

https://wiki.project1999.com/Cazic_Thule_Alligator_Pit

Start in the pit, get the hang of it, then move into the Alley.

You're welcome.

I just want to be clear here. If two players both want a mob, but neither of them have killed it previously, so neither has any claim to it according to the rules ... and player A shows up to wait for that mob before player B ... you think player B is a dishonorable dick for playing the game and trying to get that mob?

yes in the same way you would if it had to do with operating in real life.

I mean in England we form queues. It is cool and normal to respect those there before you, but I appreciate in your part of the world (wherever that is) it may be different. Even at a bar we mentally queue and defer to someone who has been waiting longer if engaged by the bartender out of order.

Welcome to life. There are rules, people follow them in different ways, people that don't follow them are penalized. Some people engage in business honorably others deceptively. As long as its done legally that's the only thing that counts in the eyes of the law. The rest is up for you to reconcile internally against your own belief system.
