I can get behind this under two conditions.

1. Sky Quests are MQable (classic).
2. Camping out in sky deletes your keys as well (not exactly classic).

#1 is necessary so that you can MQ pieces to those who get stuck or can't make it. #2 is necessary so that Efreeti cycle doesn't become a target only for guilds with enough alt's such that they can leave 30 permanently in sky.

Or just make porting down to 1 in sky eat keys. That would work too.

Would be some super classic sky crawls if this happened though. Prioritizing who you key up and setting up corpse summon groups... So classic.

I can't believe 61 people are voting yes to this. At 3AM when no one is at the camp, you definitely shouldn't be allowed to corpse an item. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

the best part about this poll is it doesn't matter

You can't tell me that if 80% or more of your entire playerbase want it gone you would still keep it... Seems kind of silly to keep it in place just because it was in the game 15 years ago.
this type of attitude is why new games are a bunch of hand holding lowest common denominator bulls**t

The problem with that is if corpsing is allowed at all it is always going to be abused by people and ruin the experience for others. I personally have no issue with corpsing when no one else is anywhere to be found. But that's not how its been going down recently. People have been corpsing items during peak hours to maintain a solid position in a "line".

Even if peak hour corpsing was enforced to where people could not corpse an item and then be put back on a friend/guild controlled list for 6 hours or something I would be fine with that.

It's just too easy to abuse the current system and nothing seems to be enforced unless it involves RMT or FTE on raid mobs.

if a guild member manages to find the AC camp open and wants to monopolize it in order to get their guildies booted, that's their prerogative

as is someone who wants to spend their life mindlessly killing PHs to corpse rings for MQ

just because it doesn't agree with your expectations of what a positive experience should be, doesn't mean there should be a rule against it

once you get jboots, whats next? unfair that hierophant is perma camped? tranix? seb king? epic mobs? kunark dragons? vp?

there's a game that caters to people with your opinion of a positive experience

You don't need to, you could run to EC and transfer or sell it off and get back to keep camping it. If really no one is going to contest the camp from you in the time that you left and got back...

Wow! Step back a second bro! You're getting all hot over a 15 year old game. I understand the frustration, but just stop and cool off for a bit. If you can't deal with the current system in place then just come on over to Red where you can take any camp you want as lo g as you win in pvp. Just a thought. An added bonus would be that you would have an outlet for your obvious rage issues. It could be cathartic.

I think people who voted yes should play red, if they want the camp then take it.
