I'd like to believe this would already be addressed if it wasn't an issue of changing source.

In the old days, when you were on the list for a camp, you couldn't go AFK for long stretches of time, right?

I think the /list command, with its AFK checks, is just automating how the old lists worked, when players were enforcing it amongst themselves.

Is this correct? If so, I think there's little chance of convincing them to change it the way people are suggesting.

The main thing /list is doing is prevent groups or guilds of players from completely locking down legacy items for financial reasons - that's what the GMs wanted to stop. It's a way to do so without GMs having to be involved, otherwise they would be getting non stop petitions.

If you weren't around for Kunark launch, some guilds did this for weeks/months on certain mobs that had drops for access to zones like Howling Stones and VP.

my fave part is these beards truly think if /list wasn't in effect they would have a shot in HELL to get any legacy item... thats the biggest joke here. They want the list but only when it eliminates even more people from blocking THEM from getting THEIR item that THEY deserve

To be serious though, I really do think that if enough time has passed (1 hour I think is more appropriate) then the person in #1 should be kicked off the list.

The idea of the list was to cut down on CSR time, it was not implemented to help people get charity pixels. It was to ensure that the person who was holding the camp first (and of course someone who is holding a camp needs to be able to I dunno... HOLD THE CAMP!!!) doesn't get bullied out of the camp or KS'ed.

You can't kill a level 30-36 wizard mob as a level 35 cleric? Well then too bad, get some levels and come back. Why does the implementation of a list all of a sudden entitle you to that camp that you can't camp!?!?

If you only kick off number 1 you will make this problem worse. Instead, 1 month lockout everyone whos been on list for more then twice the spawn timer if it isnt killed. This will incentive only people who can actually kill it Bam
