I've seen the "been here for hours" line way too many times when they havent been in the zone for more than a few minutes.

My fave response to that is to suggest it is probably time for them to take a break and they’ll often begin to back pedal, claiming they’ve not been there that long.

At this point you know they’re not being candid so why trust a word they say.

I bet it is statistically true that if you just show up at a camp and sit there waiting for the other person to be done they'll end up leaving sooner than if they had been there alone, cause there's this awkward tension that the person waiting creates for the person camping.

Another good tactic is to ask "how long you gonna be here?". It's all about the mind game.

Usually if someone asks how long are you going to be here and I've already been there awhile I will definitely leave sooner than I otherwise would. Just because I feel bad hogging the camp.

I'll let the camp go early if the person is nice, but you get those guys who try to lawyer you away or insert themselves...thats no fun and I won't be doing them any favours.

Oh yeah for sure, I meant like people who just casually ask nicely

Even if I'm planning on leaving a camp I make damn sure the PH spawns and not the named. No nameds for free.

I'm the opposite I'll always clear the last PH before logging out. I love the idea of someone just showing up and finding the named ready and waiting [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
