Can we talk camp etiquette here? Curious to see what peoples' opinions are on this. Both myself and other players over the past week have seen multiple instances of a duo or trio camping a quite popular lower level camp and refusing to either let others join their group or otherwise split the camp. For example, camps in Blackburrow, or the Karana bandits, or EC/WC Orcs.

Now, I know technically per the rules they have to be willing to split the camp. But my question is more about refusing to let people join the group, even if it's non-hybrid classes. What do you guys think about that? Is that acceptable? When I've asked people refusing to let other people join their group they seem like they legitimately don't think it's rude or greedy.
Certainly it is acceptable. Anything should be acceptable. If I have someone on my blacklist, why should I be made to group with him? If I am role playing, why should I be made to group with someone of a peoples I dislike?

If someone refuses to share, then it should also be acceptable to take it regardless. Just because this game has a PK flag, does not mean player conflict should not happen.

Also it is not my experience that people have to be willing to split camps. I was told in no uncertain terms by a GM to clear out of "pond groups" mobs, when I was soloing there in Mistmoore. Never said a word to them or answered their whining tells. I spoke to the GM--but didn't work out so well. I was accustomed to the Everquest I had played, where people generally soloed mobs at the entrance to zones. But there are hard and fast lines for what is a camp on Project '99, and so you may be mistaken. Of certain camps, there is no sharing.
