View Full Version : AFK at a camp for BIOMUNGUS

01-26-2014, 09:57 PM
I was camping Kindle for a few hours in Sol A and had to go really bad, so I killed the PH, set a timer, and took a few minutes to myself. When I got back I think someone was claiming they should get camp cause I was AFK. Here I'll quote cause I don't know how to post screen shot
Him - "So why didn't you call it in the last 2 CC's? And in the previous one you called it 5 minutes after someone else called it? =p"
Me - "afk bud, I have a special 18 minute timer"
Him - "You know you can't AFK camp right? They're supposed to kick you to char select if you do that =o"
Couldn't find camp rules, just wondering if that really is true, the kick to char select whilst shitting?

In the past:
I believe the "AFK camping" that is against the rules is like, having a pet getting aggrod by mobs that it then kills for faction or xp while you are truly 100% afk the entire time.
"AFK camping" where you aren't at your keyboard for some/all of the time between spawns is generally frowned upon I think, but it isn't against the rules. He isn't allowed to take over unless you're sitting there afk while the mobs are spawned.
Who knows what happens anymore though. PNP says he can demand a share of the camp and you guys are supposed to figure out a compromise yourselves or else he will petition staff and they'll decide something for you.

You have no obligation to answer CC's. Perfectly reasonable to go afk and be back before your spawn.

Nonsense. First 15 in zone, do an afk check. They don't answer afk check the mob is yours.

if you kill your mob, afk at the camp to shit or whatever, and are back before your mob repops, thats not afk camping.
Calling CCs is a courtesy, its not required to hold a camp.
so no you shouldnt have lost the camp

Going afk and coming back just for the spawn is against the rules, sirken, told me that could of been ambrotos though. Camp is to whomever is actively there and camping it. Don't want to lose camp cuz you're afk then reply to camp checks. It's no longer a courtesy

I can throw you on the ignore list or choose to not respond to camp checks just because I want to waste your time and you couldn't do a damn thing about it.

PH/Mob not up and someone is nearby? Mobs camped.

Seems none of you read my post or I failed to describe the instance where the camp is forfeit. If mobs are up and you do not take them down nearly immediately because you're afk camp is forfeit. I wish I still had my screenshots of the gm telling me this because it happened to me. But at any rate you're not allowed to afk camp

Of course I can, say you're camping crypt on your shaman, you're working on emperor while the 4spawn names are up and then you've got a random group that did a cc five minutes ago and ohhh no one called crypt, so the group has broken in and started doing the fourman spawns and then you complain bitch and moan about how this group has just camp stolen your mobs but you never replied to the camp check. Oh well, you are not a Jedi yet.

you can't solo claim the 5 camps if a group moves in, you can't group claim both camps if another group moves in, you don't have to answer CC ever for anything.
unless the rules have changed in the past few months...

Yup, can't remember if the GM told me it in tells or in /say but the guy's name should be "Hardrocks" ogre SK, ask him if he remembers xalgoz camp when he was 51-53 about 8-14 months ago.

Then that's news to me. Last time I played in seb was 4-5 months ago. So the four spawn in crypt now constitutes as 4 camps instead of just one? So two groups can now go into crypt and one has to take either emperor or the 4 spawn?

I think its kind of grey, if a solo player is in crypt he can't claim all 4 if a group is wanting it, but if theres a group there its taken. I remember jeremy went through this with jbb mob. I'm almost positive i have seen groups move from crypt to emp to clear ph and a group moved in and took crypt, they were allowed to keep it because first group left their post.

I also have approximately the date of when I had my necro in kaesora camping xalgoz, If gms can pull up /say and/or /tell logs of between august 24th-august 28th. Afraid I may never of taken screenshots of the talk with the GM, But hey if a GM can pull up the logs ill gladly mention my character name.

I thought xalgoz had special camp rules, at least in the first few months of kunark, due to players handing off the camp and not following list rules. Crypt also has specific rules outside regular camp rules but im not 100% anymore

That's sirken's post, I did not mention about afking to take a shit or a piss. I was mentioning actually GOING and staying afk during the entire respawn time. Fuck, I missed a minute of my respawns because I had to take a piss and that's when i was reported and that's why the GM allowed me to keep my camp. Retard.

Ask a GM not me. He never informed me of an appropriate time to take a shit, but if you're taking a shit that takes longer than 5-10 minutes you should go to the doctor and/or stop eating so much cheeze. I don't think you understand that most of the time it's not a one time somebody shows up and decides to claim camp because your ass is afk. It's a trend that you're repeating, if you're taking a shit every respawn then you should be either playing on a laptop while taking your shit or not playing at all.

The way you write this statement is unclear.
If you go afk and come back in time to kill the spawns as they pop then you hold the camp (the way your post is written, this is what it sounds like you're describing).
If you go afk and come back 5 minutes after the spawns have popped, you're not holding the camp.
You never have to respond to a CC.

Sorry, my original posts were on my phone while i was finishing up my break at work today. What I was personally told by a GM is that you cannot afk camp. Exceptions that were told to me was bio breaks, I asked for no more elaboration after that because my afk was due to a bio break, the mob had not spawned but the mobs around were respawning. Ask a gm for more clarification on this. All sirken mentioned in his post was the excuse for using the bathroom you won't lose camp. However, no point had been touched publicly on this thread from a GM that says that afking through to each respawn is or isn't against the rules mind you i said "publicly."
