		Thank you for all the answers here even though it was just partially helpful because there are so many contradictory ideas around about the term "camp". Pointing out to the Guidebook I think explains it in the best way possible :  
 
Quote: 
"That being said, you can absolutely "camp" mobs, and you cannot steal another players 'camp'. In general, if the placeholder or placeholders for a spawn are being killed, that 'camp' can be considered held by the player doing the killing so long as they are keeping the placeholders (or the room if there are no placeholders) cleared, within the same zone, do not die or log off. You do not necessarily need to be at the spawn point to call it 'claimed' while it is uncontested, however, if someone else wishes to contest the 'camp' you do need to return to the 'camp' and maintain a presence at or very near the spawn(s) in order to hold it. You cannot hold multiple 'camps' if another group wishes to contest one that you are holding. The player holding multiple 'camps' retains the right to choose which 'camp' to give up." 
 
 
So, it doesn´t even matter where you sit and btw. I was sitting right next to the camp just not in front and it is in no way neccesary to sit at a certain point to claim a camp. 
 
Anyway, the anger about the situation eventually subsided. It is just sad how poorly some people handle such a situation and abuse their power (in this case a higher level character) to take what they want. I would, in any case, apologise and back off from such a situation but people are very different.
