Question regarding camp rules

[Odeseus]

Me and a few guildmates were having this discussion. It is mostly hypothetical since none of us knew the exact answer.

Anyway, we were discussing the spell: summon corpse and how annoying it is to farm and how overpriced it can be. I personally have killed ishva a few times so the conversation moved to how early you'd have to show up at the ishva spawn point to actually be the first one there. The last time I did it, I showed up 6 hours before spawn and was first one there. Called up a few friends and PL'd them to keep me from going insane sitting there for 6 hours. Tried to do the same thing a few times later and people were already there.

Then we got into the discussion of what you actually have to do to "hold" the ishva camp. Those of us in the discussion were split pretty evenly. The first group said that all you have to do is be in the room. You can be invis or FD and do literally nothing (basically afk) in the room for hours and hours and have claim to it. Since there is no PH, you don't need to do anything at all to hold the camp.

The other group believed that you have to at the very least clear the other mob spawn in the ishva room to "hold" the camp. If for no other reason than to show that a) you have the ability to kill ishva when it pops b) you are not afk the entire time. This group reasoned that if someone was FD/invis and afk in ishva room "holding" the camp, they could come in and clear the area and would therefore have claim to the camp. I thought that this was would be kind of a dick move, but so is FDing at the camp and then going to take a nap (or whatever) and still "holding" the camp.

I'm wondering what the community thinks and if the GMs have any rules about this. If I'm simply stupid and missed a rule or post that clears this up, please just refer me to it and more or less ignore this thread.
