What about guild camps + reboots/server downs?
Say the timed reboot comes along, you're camping something in lguk. It's not uncommon that at the last few minutes you start seeing guys run to whatever you were camping and log there. So, you log in as soon as the reboot is done and... Some guy who ran and logged there is now there claiming he gets it since the mob had respawned during the boot and he managed to load his toon there first. Which can mean that whoever was camping it even sees it on his chat screen that the mob was killed like mere seconds before he got back.
Can get some clarification on this since most folks are torn on this?

Ive had people do that to me in the past.
Not sure how others handle it but I sit there and keep going.
I waited my turn for the camp, that jack ass can wait until I get my item.
Of course when I need guild sets I either buy them or buy a guild instance to avoid the P99 jerkoffs that visit from time to time.

I generally think of that situation in terms of the 5 minute waiting rule. If the server has been back up for over 5 minutes and the person hasn't logged back in for the camp then I usually would claim it.

yes i would do the same but imagine that you were camped there 3 days ago. And today you have time to play after server reboot then offcourse everybody would check if it is camped or not. But waiting 5 minutes is not such a big issue.
It's just that you dont know who camped it before server reboot.
But hey , this does not happen often i suppose that one starts to play everquest just after reboot and not before.

its obvious whats going on when 3 people rush to the named spawn pt and sit right on top of it and camp out right at server reboot.
Its ok tho, those are the same people that ask for help later and I give them the finger.

hehe maybe they can put timers of these mobs after server reboot as they were just killed and have to wait again. Maybe that would avoid already some people. Or do not all monsters respawn after reboot?
just a thought but don't know enough about server to be sure so gonna shut up lol

Timers are all in sync with the computers time, not the server time. So they generally aren't up if just killed before the server reboots. |

its saved to the DB and will respawn when its due, if something has greater then 10min timer I try to wait to kill it until just before reboot so I know its not up as soon as the server is.
Then Im ready to keep claim to my camp.
Im not above ignoring those tards and blasting my friendly npc to death before they can.

Well ye, I don't surrender the camp in the scenario either, since 99% of the time the fellow who tries to claim it had seen me there and knows damn well that I had been camping it and would ofc be back.

Oh also I tend to find the area empty and /time and screenshot several times leading up to the reboot.
Damn positive proof I was there, I owned that shit and you are just not getting it because a reboot happened.
of course I dont come back in a min or two of server unlocking I dont expect to keep my camp.
/cheers
