It's stupid that dark elf parts don't drop in Mistmoore.

There I said it.
I am still frustrated that the halfling swashbuckler in FV doesn't drop halfling parts...

What they're doing isn't against the rules, but it is a huge dick move.

Don't petition them, just remember who the involved parties are and don't associate with them in the future. This isn't World of Warcraft where you queue up for a dungeon instance comprised of people from all of the servers; this is one server and reputation matters.
It is against the rules to disrupt a zone with Pling. All dungeons have split camps, think of it as the united states boundary lines, that's how it is with camps and mobs. It's against the rules to monopolize the zones. For example, unrest, 2nd floor is a camp and MR/1st floor is a camp, if a PLer is pulling first floor, he can't pull from 2nd due to it being camped. What i've seen the most is bards pulling upper guk and disrupting zones/camps there because the bard starts pull around lguk zoneline, which there's tons of different camps that are normally camped with these bards pulling from the camps which is camp stealing.

Generally it's not even a problem except in certain zones like MM where the entire entrance area gets shut out by someone like in the OP. Level 20s really can't go much deeper.
so what? go somewhere else. if 2 people can hold down a whole camp then its their camp and you have to go somewhere else, the same as if the group was full. seems the same to me as if you came up with a group to kick a solo'er out because you think your group is more important. get their first or wait. you aren't special and neither is the PL'er. same rules for everyone.

If 2-3 separate PL'ing groups were operating in MM at the same time and you wanted to XP there kined I don't think you'd see it with quite as much impartiality.

except i completely would. i go to MM or KC or CoM and find camps full all the time, i would view it as the exact same scenario. i would get slightly annoyed that all the camps were full/taken, but thats part of the game.

I used to camp exe/sav/cav/sage/ass/sup with a 4 man exp group (all level appropriate for those camps) and maybe twice did anyone get upset with us, and then we just gave them ass/sup. What is the difference between us and the PLer? Nothing.

But if a PLer did this, people would flip out and petition like crazy. When really, there is no difference at all. It is a camp (in this case 5 camps, counting ass/sup as 1) and it should be treated the same no matter who is camping it.

That being said, I hate it when a spot it taken by a PLer, but they have just as much of a right to be there as I do.

I cannot stand Donald Trump for many reasons, one of which is what he recently said about Mexicans, but he has every right to say it.

You sure spend a lot of time telling everyone else how they should play an ancient video game, on a server you say you don't even play on.

Sorry that you're mad. I still have friends on blue, I still log in to rez people whose streams I watch, mess with alts etc. So wow, I'm not allowed to enjoy trying to get a group in zones that are usually busy and groupable? This is bad for the server's health - new players come to P99 to relive and replay their Classic EQ experiences... but find powerleveling in these zones, people geared to the teeth, fat with platinum dropping big amounts on getting leveled.

You want to defend that?

Did you know you can play red and blue at the same time? I guess you didn't.
