No, you would be entirely too presumptuous with that belief.

FFA/FTA does not address other situations regarding raiding -- specifically mass raid target camping, and in many cases like camping will only exacerbate the situation further.

Yes and no. With no first in force number they could potentially lower the number of people in the zone camping down to whatever can survive until the raid get's there. Remember they have 15 minutes to engage or they loose rights to it, no more half an hour setup, they have to have raid numbers online and ready to move.

Will it exacerbate the problem with camping Vox? Most likely, the dragons will probably be the hardest to kite and therefore the hardest to not camp, but lets be honest, there is jack in the game for level 50's to do right now until Kunark, I don't think you can fully stop camping right now even if you tried.

It's not a huge shift from the current raid rules, it simply removes the first in force requirement so 15 people do not HAVE TO camp in the zone, with the requirement gone the amount of camping is up to the individual guild and player's preference.

However it does create a set of raid rules that can stay standing up until and through any future content without breaking any play nice rules and forcing chunks of guilds to camp a zone.
