There's actually a page in the wiki for answering questions like this: https://wiki.project1999.com/Camp_Rules. It will point you to this player question and ruling:

Guidelines/rulings are handled this way to help prevent the need for any staff intervention. If you happen to be running through SK and see QM wandering around, kill it, then another player claims you KSd it how do you know they aren't lying? It's a big zone so that QM could have been wandering around for 10 minutes.
In other words, Quillmane ISN'T a camped mob, UNLESS a guild or other large group of people is camping Quill, and they have members waiting on (literally) EVERY spawn point. And if that is the case, then the only way you could steal Quillmane from that group would be to wait at a spawn point and try and "snipe" it from them when she spawns: you could never just see a Quill wandering around, because that group would have engaged her the moment she spawned.

Under any other conditions ... in other words, if you ever just see an un-agroed Quillmane running around, anywhere in SK ... by definition she is not camped, and you can freely attack her.

P.S. While the player says "3 spawn locations", note that Menden doesn't; he just says that if you're camping Quill you need to FTE (agro) her virtually the moment she spawns, which requires waiting at all spawn points. Thanks to changes that have happened since that ruling, many believe there are now several more spawn points ... not just three (which makes it even more difficult to truly "camp" Quill).
