you came in here with what basically seems like a disingenuous "question" about, what do we think about people having 3 man camps. because the instant anyone didn't share your opinion you're not having any of it.

you didn't want to know what anyone thought.

Don't think having such a preference makes me a jerk, but if someone feels that way I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

Tecmos liked a post.

I have to agree. Why would you take more people if you got enough people to clear the camp.Looks bad to you but looks win-win to them.

I duo almost exclusively. When we first started, we were into the whole group dynamic and meeting new people but the vast majority of the time, the additional persons were content to AFK while we duo'd for them or looted every damn corpse. After awhile, we realized you guys just all suck and went our own way. HTH.

I see where you’re coming from, because this was a very annoying thing to deal with at launch. Things were so so crowded, and there were more than a few duo pet class groups out there kicking things down. But you’ll eventually be in their position and want to make the same decision and you’ll have every right to do so, too

So I can’t engage in a discussion if someone doesn’t share the same opinion? Lol wut

Nope, I don't. Even at server release, with people camping spawn points in newbie yards, there were still places to level. The population has thinned out and dispersed through the levels; there's tons of places for you to go gain XP. You're not entitled to a group, and you're not entitled to a particular camp.

Hell, West Karana has like six big bandit camps, and six smaller ones. North Karana and East Karana each have a big camp, and Lake Rathe has two. If all you want is bandits and bandit loot, brother, they're all over the place.

I was more talking about not letting people join a group. For me, I’ve always invited people if we have a free spot. It’s EQ. Its supposed to be about being social and having fun (I.e. the “journey” that everyone talks about); not maximizing every ounce of EXP per minute that you can.

If your argument hinges on the word "technically," then you already know that you're wrong and are just scraping around for any excuse to claim to be right.

Lesson for life.

Fair point. Although with respect to bandit camps specifically the Karana ones have all been consistently camped. A decent amount of the time it seems to be duos and trios although I did see a full group once or twice, but seems to be the minority.
