"AFK camping" in the rules, you might have seen the thread linked below, refers to having a pet kill stuff for you while you are not at your computer. Mages/Necros (when pets were super awesome) were able to park their pet near an aggro mob and let it do all the work while they AFK'd for the day/night soaking up exp.

6. AFK camping is not respected and is frowned upon, if caught afk camping you will be booted to the character select screen.

Simply going AFK while waiting for the next spawn at your camp is fine, as long as you are back at your computer before the spawn happens. If the next spawn occurs and you don't act to engage it relatively quickly, then other people waiting can take over your camp. Sometimes douches demand that you instantly engage the next spawn in order to maintain the camp. Other people are generally more easy going and give you a few minutes to get back or try to ask you in tells to check if you are there before they attempt to engage. Some even give the camp back if you ask nicely after getting back from an unexpectedly long AFK, but they are not under any obligation to do so.
