Some jerk started shouting in zone chat, (IE: Didnt even bother to whisper me) that I was stealing his camp (The entire Basement). It was to my understanding that you could not claim the entire basement as your camp. Someone please tell me if I am wrong, but I got my ass flamed for it.
Did you come in and ask first, or did you just randomly start taking mobs from the basement without asking?

I just came in and started killing without asking. Mobs were up so I brought them down. They were in another room so i figured they either A) Were not keeping up with the camp or B) Someone had left the camp.

You guys are hilarious. These "Rules" are the main reason I stopped playing back in March. The GM's are ruining the fun of this server, not to say they aren't trying to be fair it's just that they are implementing non-original EQ rules. If this was supposed to be like live classic was, the GM's would just tell you to share and that if someone engages a mob, they own it, there are no camps. But we have these rules set up by our lovely admins that result in this kind of "jackassery" (I love that term). I don't know if they ever lifted those "raid rules" but if not that's another reason why this server sucks so bad. Back in the original "good ol' days" we learned to get along with each other because being a douche bag left you with a scarred reputation on the server. These "rules" have almost eliminated the need to preserve your good standing with the faction of norath players. Good luck with your "camps".

I was reading this and nodding, and then I thought "Hm, wait, aren't you the one that just got banned for repeatedly training some Troll in Freeport who was camping guards?

If I'm mistaken on that occusation, I apologize in advance.. But if I'm correct, that takes some cheek to go and try to lecture others about "camping guards" etiquette after doing that.

I said I could read, not write jackass. If it is really so important to you i'll go install ieSpell addon and use it. Or maybe the forum moderators would fix it so I could edit my typos in this forum.
I love the fact that will every subsequent post you make yourself look more fucking retarded. Everyone has read the rules, and knows the rules. The issue is that these are xp camps, and not item camps, which is what those rules were *mostly* made to deal with.

Here is the scenario.

Two people come to zone and find all the guards up and proceed to take X amount of guards in the zone because they can keep them down and it is good XP.

Some asshat (that would be you) decides he is going to come to the zone and force them to choose a camp because he likes to exploit the rules to his benefit.

Said asshat takes 1/3rd of the mobs, which reduces the mob count and xp for the people duoing, causing them reduced XP and potentially having to leave to find another xp area.

Seriously, if you don't understand that, go ahead and get your mom and dad on the phone and thank them for raising a fucking asshole.

Now that you've stopped playing, why don't you stop posting?

What does "camping guards" etiquette have to do w/ my Defense of West Freeport thread? Nothing. Training had nothing to do with who had rights to what, and if I got banned I deserved it and don't dispute it. So yes, I can still have an opinion whether you like it or not.

Also, it "takes some cheek" for you to lecture me on anything, considering I sold you a Ghoulbane as soon as it dropped, then you were going to try to bank it and camp the Lord and win it again (yep, Slee told me of your little plan). It's too bad you didn't know about the Lore rule on items, but then again you're quite the paragon of sportsmanship and in a position to lecture others aren't you [You must be logged in to view images.

If all the mobs are dead constantly, this really becomes a non-issue.

Like if Early Cuyler bought his Sunday liquor on Saturday. (+10 points if you get the reference.)
