Camping a mob and going AFK is different from the defined rule about "AFK Camping." The "camp rules" do have a section about engaging. The rule states that if a mob is being "camped" but spawns and is not engaged in some reasonable amount of time, then it is free to engage.

This, of course, is subjective because no time frame is given, but the fact that he made attempts to contact you before the spawn and was met with silence led to the deduction that you were not there and were not going to be there. Your use of audio triggers to determine your gameplay furthers the notion that you had no intention to be there until the mob was already spawned.

Communication is the best of bets. If you intend to use audio triggers to pull you to your computer to play the game, please be aware that you should have all forms of communication (say, tell, ooc, shout) on audio triggers, otherwise you will be assumed AFK when attempts at communication with you do not work out. As I understand it, messages were sent to you in say and you did not respond after the mob had spawned because you were expecting a tell. The assumption that you were AFK could've been resolved by piping up even right as it spawned.

Resolving issues takes communication from both sides. If there is any more information you would like to provide, feel free to send me a PM.

That works, too.

I'd be willing to buy you the item if you haven't received one yet, anyway. :)

Rule disputes over camps suck. There's a lot of misinterpretation possible.

Treat others how you would want to be treated in the same situation and all will be right with the world.

that works in the bible pal, not on the internet

The Golden Rule:
Do Unto others as you would have them do unto you

The Internet Rule:
Do unto others before they do unto you.

DA not abiding by the server rules?

No fucking way. Has this ever happened before?!
