Default Ruby BP /List Camp not being cleared.

Multiple times i've received tells from others in Cazicthule they needed help killing spawns around AoF. How can multiple people on a list camp not be able to kill a mob, but still at the end be rewarded just for being there? If a PH or spawn cannot be killed within the time frame the server rules gives other camps, the list should become void.

so someone joins the list at spot 9 and by the time they are at 2 the group as devolved into mostly melee and a few casters. no healers no cc. so they just fold? been there the entire time but meaningless, or oh theres a cleric in zone that sees they are struggling wait a little bit and bring in your own group now your #1.

the list system has been picked through over and over I think its pretty well settled on at this point

So someone is on a waiting list for an exp group at scryer in uguk, and by the time they get into the group the remaining members are unable to hold the camp down. So they just fold? Nah. Let's just give him free exp for hiding in a corner. Or better yet, let's tell a capable group that shows up and wants to claim scryer that they can't actually have it unless they first powerlevel the people who are there currently but unable to handle the camp on their own for a day or two.

Yeah. That'll be great. Both of those things are totally in keeping with classic mechanics AND the classic experience, right?!

Derp dee doo!!!

As opposed to letting one person or a group of people monopolize the camp for weeks on end?

False dichotomy. Go away.

The /list should not be flooded with people who cannot hold the camp then. Per Rogean, these camps will NEVER be empty. Every combination of classes can duo this camp. At 35? Probably going to be pretty tough. I can't get behind the idea that allowing low levels to flood a camp and hold their spot because they were there deserve an item they would not be able to obtain in a small to full group.

Do you all not get tired of wasting your breath (or keystrokes)? Apparently not. How many more of the exact same thread must be made before you realize nothing is going to change until these items are removed from the game anyway very soon?

Still a pretty long while till these/lists go away, and they’ll only be replaced by NEW /lists when Kunark comes out, so the issues aren’t going to be suddenly irrelevant.
