same thing happened to me with the rotgus camp in Droga like a day into Kunark. Server confirmed corrupt
lol the vent during that run to the prod camp was lulz "where are you?!" "how did you loose the bard?!" "should I go back?" "NO keep going!" all to keep people from power leveling in HS (screw that the real peeps did Kedge!)
Note, I never really played P99 to any gear camping levels but how is this any different from EQ back in the day? Plenty of times when I can think of calling into guild chat that I was planning on leaving X camp and invited anyone in guild to come take it from me. You owned the camp, you can invite whoever you like to join you. If you leave shortly after... that's just how life went. No random guy could just show up and demand it, regardless how long he sat on his ass watching you.
My experience of live was that what you are describing would have resulted in a confrontation of who can outdamage who. If I was sitting waiting for lguk frenzy to open up and random guy shows up 2 minutes before the guy camping it leaves he better be able to outdamage me. GMs wouldn't have bothered getting involved unless we are talking about a raid mob.
Thats what happens when you have neckbeards camping worthless shit on their 5th or 6th fully geared alt.
What happened at Jade Chokidai on Kunark-up was the following:
IB was 'Transatlantic Rampage' by then which somehow they typed with a keyboard while submitting their new guild name.
Sadly, I was involved enough with p99 to know this isn't true. TMO held the locket and circlet camps for about a week straight. I remember getting the first locket after about 12 hours of camping and after the first two days we had a few lockets and a bunch of circles. I actually remember you trying to crash the camp after things had kind of died down and the locket wasn't dropping anymore but the pre-nerf circlet still was.
As one of the few Wizards with IC in classic, I took whatever I wanted from any dungeon. It was all about damage dealt, Guides/GMs started to care later on closer to Kunark release when "play nice" rules were implemented, but I was able to circumvent that by telling the group that I was willing to share with them and we'd alternate: one kill for me, one kill for their group, one kill for me.... People lost their damn minds (obviously) and would just try to contest it. Loot was awarded to the highest damage dealt by a PLAYER, not a group... so KS'ing a wizard with IC required a cleverly timed mem blur and smart Enchanters weren't very common in classic.
