The one thing I think we do need to debate about is:
Being able to pass off a camp to a guild member or friend if someone else has been sitting nearby waiting for the camp. The reason is because this creates a camp lock-down and is detrimental to the community imo. This happens all the time on camps like Frenzy with the FBSS and we all know its going to happen with the Fungi camp when Kunark comes out unless we fix this.
Hope some of this made sense. Back to work.

This is an important point. At least one modification to the existing rules might come out of this discussion:
Being physically present at the spawn point waiting for camp to free up should trump all.
If a player is determined and willing to put in the time and sit at the spawn point waiting for the current campholder to finish, that player should absolutely be next in line for the camp. The existing rules leave it to the discretion of the campholder, and that should probably stay the same EXCEPT if there is someone actually present at the camp waiting for it. To say that a camp can be passed to the next one on a "list" or a friend or guildmate who shows up 5 minutes prior to the changeover as opposed to someone who has been physically present at the spawn point waiting patiently, makes no sense imho.
That seems to me the easiest "improvement" to make to existing rules. It does not address the entire problem, and sure you can still get your guildmate/friend to sit there with you afk, but at least its a start.
