With my necromancer I was camping the dwarves at the dock in Butcherblock, keeping the two common dwarves by the shoreline dead and the two with longer respawns at the ends of the piers. The four spawns were broken and I was making my attacks on them within 3-5 seconds of their spawning in (one at a time, in turn). A shaman showed up and parked right on top of one of the common dwarf spawns as I was killing one on the pier.
I let the shaman know politely that I had the four spawns camped and identified them, but let the player know that I wasn't after the dwarves within the huts or the solo paladin dwarf that was around the wall by the shoreline. The shaman waited until the single commoner spawned and then started killing. I made one more attempt to ask the person to please leave my camped 4 spawns alone. That this point the player made their first reply to me, which was "I'm killing this one."
I shrugged and petitioned. I had been camping those 4 spawns all within LOS of each other for the past couple of hours. I didn't feel like moving on, or that I should have to. Braknar politely responded in less than 15 minutes to inform me that all simple outdoor mobs could only be camped in singles, including mobs with a roaming patrol path - assuming the player is camping their spawn point.
After hearing this I replied to Braknar - "Okay. Let's pretend that I'm at the Lesser Faydark bandit camp called the Sisters, where there's 4 spawns all very close to each other. Are you telling me that a single player cannot camp those 4 spawns and have it respected? That at any time another player can sit down and claim one or more of them, since I as the original person there can only claim one?"
Braknar replied that it would sadly be the case that the staff could only defend my camping one mob that is outdoors, even in that situation. And that I should be encouraged to resolve the matter with the other player if at all possible.
It was around this time that I took a break from the game. I didn't agree with what was going on, especially with what I had experienced on old live retail servers like Brell Serelis, but that's what was up.

Imo he was just asking for one. I would have been the nice guy and given him two on the ends to pull while i easily camped the two close together, but that's just me. If he just wanted to camp one I believe that would be more than fair. Those dwarves are pretty spread out. Thats like kiting a whole line more than a camp.
