My favorite camp squabble was a few years back when someone tried to claim that they were camping every gnome in Sol A and were deadly serious about it attempting to petition.
That's the closest I've seen to someone believing they owned a whole zone.

However, as an outdoor zone technically each player can only claim a single giant spawn ... IF there are three players all wanting to do ice giants at once.

Incorrect and only implemented due to the overwhelming population on Green at launch. Wasn't true in classic and certainly not true on Blue and in fact, is contrary to the very link provided posted by Rogean "You do not necessarily need to be at the spawn point to call it 'claimed' while it is uncontested, however, if someone else wishes to contest the 'camp' you do need to return to the 'camp' and maintain a presence at or very near the spawn(s) in order to hold it.."

For example: Specs in oasis is 1 camp, not 7 or 8. (forget # of mobs in the top of the tower) Considerate players often do share mobs not in close proximity or if there are more than they can handle, etc.

It's past time for GM's to revise this broken rule on Green and return to the real rules, as previously written and understood since EQ launch. We're teaching new Guides the wrong method.

You seem to be a little confused as to who makes the rules around here. Hint: it's not us players.

Not Classic and no longer relevant to why they implemented the rule. There's no reason to keep the ruling in place and no reason rules shouldn't adapt more towards a more classic experience, especially in this particular situation.

New Guides learning the wrong methods extends to players learning the wrong methods. It's not something to condone. Other players get rules changed all the time, no reason to be quiet when it no longer serves the original purpose.

It does serve a purpose though. It prevents monopolization of spawns by high level players. A level 60 farming cash can easily hold down those three giants, but a level 45 *should* get a shot at at least one. Similar thing for treants in SK.

You’re actually wrong. The one spawn outdoor thing was a rule well before Green ever existed.

You’re right that most players will respect the specs as one camp. However they don’t HAVE to. Technically someone could come and claim one of the spawns as theirs if they wanted to

cd288, you say a lot of incorrect information on these forums, at an alarming rate too. Everyone should take anything you have to say with a grain of salt.

The one spawn outdoors was a rule on Blue before Green existed. It’s been that way for quite awhile bubs. Sorry it upsets you
