Camps or no camps

[Legidias]

My only issue is the lack of time frame for leaving a mob up. There's been several threads about this.

Agreed on this one. I personally take screenshots with /time in the chat scroll along with the combat scroll in a different window showing full mob spawns up for 6 and a half to 7 minutes, and then start pulling. Camps have to be actively maintained with a presence and spawns being killed. If a player ever wants to dispute this in game, I'll cheerfully report back with how it turns out.

Pictures are not a valid form of proof in these types of disputes, FYI.

Good to know. I'll switch over to using OBS then for such instances. And for the record, I'll always attempt to engage a person at the fully spawned camp in a conversation rather than stay silent and then swoop in. For all anyone knows, the poor soul might have eaten at Panda Express and is having an extended personal emergency in the bathroom. Decency states and effort at least has to be made, I'd think.

I'm camping Panda Express. Chick-fil-A may be open if Eratani isn't camping it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Rules can be very nuanced and hard to understand... most people don't 'get them' and have their own ideas.

Often times rules conflict. There's past precedences. On top of that, at the end of the day it will come down to a judgement call by a GM.

Play nice policy is something people personally define. To me it means a few things-
1-making an effort with the other party that is challenging the camp. This means discussing the rules with them and using evidence. Keeping a dialogue going until it's clear that there's varying viewpoints that isn't going to be resolved. When a GM gets involved, I don't think it's a good look to be the party that is shutting down reasonable conversation.
2- Giving people time to get their spawns. I am very lenient with this. If someone lets something pop I usually give them at least 3 mins or so before I ask them 'whats up'.


Any time I've had to deal with a GM I've respected the decision and I don't really disagree with the judgement they've used in my cases.

There's rules and there's "rules" (ie - my interpretation vs yours)

One thing that's also certain, people want more rules while being equally frustrated about how rules are used against them.
