Had someone get quite annoyed with me in PoM the other day. I show up at A4 and everything is down but no one is in any of the A4 rooms. Not in TwentyTwo's room, not in Halfings' room, not with Gorilla or Rat. I summon a pet and sit and wait 5 full minutes waiting for some chanter to come back with a pet or something else.
After the 5 minutes I "/ooc I've been sitting alone in A4 for more than 5 minutes now. Claiming it."
I then swiftly get a response in /ooc to the effect of "I was camping it but am just out killing other stuff now - the rest of the Alice stuff (A1-A3 presumably)".
I go on to explain that you can't just leave your camp and go kill other things in the zone while mobs are down (mobs have 72 min respawn time in PoM for those that might not know). The response is: like I'm gonna sit on my butt for 60 mins and just wait?
Umm yeah...
I then got chastised for not asking for a CC before moving in. And yeah I suppose I could have done that but honestly that would just be a way to facilitate the holding down camps without being there. If I had asked in CC the player in question would have just said "A4" and when pressed would just say "I'm omw back".
By the time the discussion was somewhat concluded more than 10 minutes had elapsed and I was still alone at A4 btw.
