Yours were pretty bad. It just makes it unbearably hard to read. See that red line? Just right-click it, please.

Wait, didn't you rip the OP on page one about his grammar?

So how does this work? Grammar is ok to rip on, but not spelling?

Disclaimer: not defending the troll OP, just a judicator of hypocrisy.

Make your choice.
This

I was in a dungeon camping a mob, a player came in and told me he was camping the mob that I had been camping. He quoted "Camps Defined" becaue I was not sitting in the exact room, more around the corner from the mob. (think FG camp)
Obviously I did not want to lose my spawn so I argued, he remained silent and continued to camp my mob. I asked several times, made the proper attempts ended up having to /petition. Upon arriving the GM explained to me that because I had not been on top of its spawn placement, I did not own the camp.
The next day I was back in a dungeon killing mobs for exp. I did a Camp Check and saw that one of the rooms I was able to solo was open. I ran to the camp, cleared the mobs and set up shop. I screen shotted all of this by the way. Then next time there was a Camp Check shouted, I called the camp. In from another room runs a group, who start spamming me with tells about how this is their camp. I was fairly non-responsive as I did not want to argue via text on a video game. As I'm sitting there the same GM from the previous day appears, calls me a douche, and punts me out of zone. (I was folloing the "Camps Defined" thread rules, explicitly, I might add)
When I asked why I was booted I was "being a douche." When I asked how I was breaking any of the rules, I was told to stop crying. When I asked simply what the rules are I was told that if I asked again I would be "Escorted out"
I'm not here pointing fingers or saying whats right or wrong on this server, but from a new players perception, this interaction left a very bad taste in my mouth for the server as a whole, now I still play on it, but I can honestly say that I don't see how acting like that is acceptable behavior to someone who has never proven themself to the GM in one way or another. These were my first two interactions with said GM, I hadn't posted anything on the forums, I am fairly unknown. If you were talking to one of those flamers thats always causing trouble and saying how shitty everything is I can understand. To turn a new player off to the server for no reason than you have a chip on your shoulder and want to be a dick seems counter productive.
and that, there's the door, attitude that all the top end players have just doesn't register with me. Why would you not want more people playing? Why would you not want to make this the biggest EMU ever to hit the server list? Is it really asking that much of your time to simply not talk down to everyone and treat them like the absolutly don't matter?
Please feel free to flame me for having an opinion about this, you won't hurt my feel goods.

Its a free server! They have every right to treat you like shit, so go fuck yourself, stop crying and if you dont like it, leave. At least thats what Uthguaard told me.

I know situations like this are frustrating, but it was no different (and much worse) on live. The official position from SOE was that camps were not recognized and it was up to the players to sort out a dispute. At least on this server, they've gone a step further and laid out some ground rules to prevent what would happen otherwise, and what did happen on live: constant griefing. That may not be what you want to hear, I'm sure you'd prefer that we get out the pitchforks and torches and hunt us some GM monsters. But I can't really blame them if they make a mistake, or come at you with a short temper. I'd be just as annoyed if I was dealing with what my role entailed AND rediculous player-created issues all day, every day. It's the same reason there are so many pissed off cops. Sure your story might be legit, and you might feel it was unfair, but you don't realize that for every honest alibi there are ten more that are just bullshit to get out of trouble. It takes it's toll.
