Default These mobs are camped!

Just a reiteration. If you claim a certain mob, say specs in oasis, or feerrot as your camp, and you are unable to keep them all dead, before respawns, they are not all camped. For example, say 8 spectres spawn. You clear out 6, and the first one respawns. YOu kill the 7th, and the 2nd respawns. You are camping 6 spectres. I am not talking about a quick afk and you have respawns, or a lag spike and lose your pet, or something crazy. If you demonstrate over an hour or more...even less really, that you cannot keep them cleared, you are not camping them ALL.

Once again, I am not nitpicking as in you clear 7, and on the 8th, the first respawns. I am talking, you haven't even cleared the last few, and you have respawns. In such a case, share. Do not try and be greedy.

That is all.

Even if people were willing to share, who would make someone for 1-2 specters...

isn't really the point is it, but for argument's sake...If you aren't killing the mob, how can it be 'camped'. ? And then is it really sharing, if you aren't camping it in the first place? Therefore you aren't requiring anyone to share, only avoid flames and bad feelings. So you ask them to share, and try using tact, instead of taking said mobs, or pointing out the fact they're wrong in calling said camp, camped. or said mobs, camped. In where they could feel they were being called selfish, liars, incompetent, inept, ignorant, aw heck..

I just ask them to share and hopefully make the point where they feel they have control, and makes them more amicable, or likely to acquiesce. Instead of oocing or shouting and it degenerates..

Let's flip it over and say for example there are a couple of people people essentially rotating around the island keeping *two* specs killed.

It's not even worth getting into a fuss over FIVE specs.


Also, not only has the above happened to me, a dude was camping THE SINGLE SPECTRE IN THE FIRST LEVEL OF THE TOWER and was bitching incessantly when anyone pulled any spec ever regardless of the fact that he could not engage them. When he wandered out to engage one of the specs I was waiting to quad, he died 1:1 to the spec and proceeded to log out. Wonder how all those petitions went for him.

How about "if someone's there killing them already, I won't try to manuever the rules so that I can take some portion of the camp"? People get all territorial over those fucking spectres as if killing them gives your cock an extra inch, so just find something else.

There's plenty of other places to solo that get neglected, but Oasis of Marr and its beer-flavored nipples get all the damn drama.

The real lesson is: When you see a non afk player sitting on a spawn, GET THE FUCK AWAY. Its camped. Who the fuck do you think you are watching them and throwing the rule book out? Its camped, move the fuck on

It isn't about respect, or taking someone's camp. If you are on say, seafury isle, killing about 4 of them before the ones you killed, you can't really claim all of the seafuries, can you? You share, and if you arrive after that player, you don't be a wanker and kill so it cuts into what they were killing. If you were there previously, you should expect them to not cut into your kills.

The ones who claim all mobs in an area, even when they aren't killing them all in one cycle, and scream respect, are the same ones who would ffa centaurs or aviaks. But when you're above 35 or 40, or whatever, now it is MY camp, and respect? By only killing the mobs in a cycle you aren't, that is showing respect. Not showing respect would be cutting into the 5 per 8 you kill. Bottom line is people get paranoid, want an easy camp they can afk and kill at lesiure. While that is nice, and it may hold for a room,. in a dungeon, to a degree..and even outdoors... if you kill half of the specs say in oasis, afk and they respawn while you med, you kill the same 4, repeat process, how can you justify ALL OF THEM ARE MINE pls respect.

And fyi I haven't even killed a spec mob in oasis ...yet.. lol. It is one thing to clear say the lord room in guk, let it repop, kill, etc. Or even kill the ph, let the other 2 up. In that case killing the guards wout your permission would be a lack of respect or rude, but not camp stealing really. If someone killed the lord, or it's ph, then that is theft.

It isn't maneuvering of rules, or finding a loophole even. But if someone walks up, and asks, are you killing them... be honest. And drop the greed paranoia. If you are, fine. if you always leave 2 or 3 up... don't freak out if someone asks to kill them, and THEM ONLY.

And for the record, I have yet to kill or attack an oasis spec.... or even sit there.

yet.

Errr, If you are on say, seafury isle, killing about 4 of them before the ones you killed, you can't really claim all of the seafuries, can you?

Insert respawn, as in before the ones you killed respawn.

makes more sense.

And respect would also be not lying, or being selfish, eh? If someone comes up and asks a honest question, and you take offense, who is being disrespectful?
