It seems that the only argument that she's not FTE is that she doesn't have raid-mob status and emit a zone-wide emote. The argument that "she doesnt scream FTE, therefore shes not FTE" is pedantic at best and miserably short-sided at worst.

If she is in-fact a camp, several questions really need to answered explicitly or risk torrents of petitions every spawn.

-When can you start "camping?" Can you start your camp when she's not even in her window?

-Can you camp her on a level 1 alt? What level can you start camping her?

-Can you kill her and choose not to relinquish the camp...just like any other? If so, how many cycles can you camp? Can you have characters devoted to selling looting rights and never intending to leave the camp...in essence cutting off that piece from anyone who doesn't pay?

Those questions must be answered explicitly if she is not FTE, otherwise the future of blue/green only holds misery for enchanters.
I think them being treated as camps opens up all sorts of issues like you mentioned, however to help cover one of those, you can't hold a camp you are unable to contest/kill the ph/mob when it spawns. So camping lvl 1 alts would not secure the camp. You'd need to have level appropriate toon(s) to engage asap on spawn, with the intent of killing the mob. Now yes, enchanters can solo VT, so it could be considered camped in that case, or if 2+ people are there, etc.

Best of luck, camping with lvl 1 alts and going FTE route seemed clearer, not looking forward to enchanters having to pay camp hoarders to get their epic, since so many people are willing to sit AFK with GINA triggers to tell them when it spawns.
