Here's the real problem

[Smellybuttface]

I’d say as far as forum threads go, this has had some of the most remarkably civil and rational responses as they come.

Everquest wasn’t really ever designed with the absolute casual player in mind. I’ve played ESO, WoW, and a handful of others, and none of them have required the time commitment that EQ does. This is a game you just can’t log in and expect things to start happening for you immediately; there’s no group-finder, no quest hubs, and generally long distances to travel to even get to content. And as low as all that is on the quality-of-life meter, that’s also its charm. This world lives and breathes regardless if your online or not, so it’s unrealistic to expect people to change their behavior just because you want something. The main problem you’re faced with here is timing. There just isn’t enough for those high level characters to do in classic, so sadly areas that are meant for lower levels will get infringed upon.

I get it. I hate going to Crushbone and having a lvl 50 camping the entire throne room for belts and pads when I could be in there with 5 other people getting experience. It sucks. But unless the devs speed up the expac release schedule (unlikely), it isn’t likely to change, and in fact will probably just get worse in the 6 months we have left to go. There aren’t enough admins to try and enforce any type of camp time limit, nor would they since it’s not classic. I don’t know if you played EQ back in 1999 era, but this is much like it was then. Only difference I see is that more people now know about all the great cash camps and ZEM’s, so have crowded those areas to the limit. As has been said, I think just try and enjoy the journey. If you find you’re not, the TLP’s might be more your style (I played on Mangler for quite a while and enjoyed it).

You're like the spoiled girl in Willy Wonka.

Again if you are already 50 you are at max xp and have full gear....what are you doing camping areas that 30s are level appropriate for? Why don't they leave until content is back for them to play instead of taking areas from the players who are level appropriate for them?

That player has just as much right to camp a mob as you do... and there are plenty of reasons a higher level player may be camping a lower level mob.

Factioning up so they are not KOS in some city.
Farming for Tradeskills, OMG so much farming needed.
Trying to spawn quest mobs on quests they are doing.

It's been posted many times in this thread, move to uncrowded zones and exp there.

Why don't you post your class and level (and where you have tried to exp and found these level 50 people). I am sure people will make suggestions of where you can go.
