Rules Lawyers: the Myconid Spore King

[Raev]

Mostly this thread is a reflection of my irritation that the king camp is constantly occupied by trios of people who train out the right side and then sneak pull to the left, then AFK for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, the actual spore king camp (on his spawn point, not in the zone out room) is a ton of fun and requires a real group of L60 players. So personally I think it would be way more fun to watch full groups constantly wipe on the spawn point of the king than a bunch of dudes do their laundry while pushing the GIVEMEPIXELZPLZ button.

edit: this was not clear originally, but I dont care what people do if the camp is uncontested. I just think full groups should be able to move to his spawn point and ignore the 3 man AFK teams.

Why don't you take your real group of L60 players and take the camp from the AFKers? Deal with the GMs and see how it goes.

Fairly sure the GMs would vote in your favor.

Bort and Ambrotos (pretty sure it was Ambrotos) once ruled in a specific instance that King camp had to be held either inside the King room or at the water adjacent to King room.

As most groups can't hold the camp in either place, groups are left to pull it to exit/tube rooms. I'm indifferent either way, but I'm inclined to think that if other camps have to be held inside or very near the room in order to be labeled "a legal camp," OS King should be the same if a group can hold it.

[Cecily]

Yeah, but he'd like overwhelming player base support on his poll to use as leverage to change the server rules on the camp instead. Because people who play EQ are all horribly passive aggressive.

More regulations on how we can play is exactly what this server needs, I agree totally. There's rules in place to steal camps legally from AFKers. You don't deserve the camp if you're not willing to deal with the unpleasantness that comes with it.

[Raev]

I PMed Sirken and he suggested that the GMs would rule in favor of the tube group, although he sympathized with my general position. So I would like to get the policy changed.

P.S. Stop being a douche, Cecily.

I disagree with your idea. I'm not being a douche. There's a difference.

I'm not projecting. I'm overtly hostile.

yes, that's why I changed my post to "stop being a douche". I don't care if you disagree with me; what I care about is you dragging a perfectly reasonable thread down to RNF levels before it gets off the first page.

That's the problem here. People think dissenting opinions = trolling. I most assuredly assure you, I am not trying to get a reaction out of you. Your idea is just bad.

[Raev]

When you tell someone to fuck off, you are trolling. When you call someone passive-aggressive, you are trolling. I don't see why this is hard to understand.
