I still don't see how you could possibly prove its a troll FC. I mean all I would say is:" I didn"t place it at resource cause resource was being attacked."."I chose the spot for dueling purposes"." I chose the spot for a scroll run"

4 of the 10 camps on our map were troll camps.. If you look closely, you can see where we NEEDED to camp but was unable to due to being troll camped by whom ever wanted to get at that certain keep with a certain scroll in it.. This troll camping went on for a good 2-3 hours..

I'm glad u posted that picture because I can't tell if that camp by glademist is a troll camp or just a camp that was placed in hopes to start a siege on that keep. You can't punish people who place camps in not the most optimal places. The only real way to stop troll camps would be to either increase the cost which might not stop it entirely depending on how much they care about AP or to have a system where x amount of people could vote a camp to be removed as it is useless.

Someone was clearly placing multiple pointless AD camps in the northwest to prevent a camp being placed anywhere near Alessia. The map is at camp limit intentionally for that very purpose. Dont be daft.

@Rylana maybe or maybe not. I would say there a few too many defensive FCs before the one that's out of position NW which may be a backup for the attacks up there.

What it actually looks like to me, is whoever placed the camps in the northwest also placed the camps in the keeps leading up to them

it looks like they spawned in their AD toon at eastern gate and methodically moved up the line placing a camp in every keep, and then just started placing them out in the boonies, circled around bleakers and started going down to chalman where they probably died or logged out.

nah - you had to be there to understand what was going on

DC were hitting aleswell and were putting camps all around it so that an actual 'legitimate' camp could not be spawned anywhere close the keep

sad, shabby tactics - but currently a part of the PvP game with so many bugs and exploits in that we either tolerate it or go find something else to do

make it so FCs can only be placed by Vets. That way at least the spies have to get to V1

Fluffies guide to stopping troll camps:

Stop complaining about it.
Trolls get bored.
Trolls stop.

IF I was placing these camps the second thing I would do is look at forums and lul at people making these threads.

makes no difference..its messing with an in game mechanic. Needs to be fixed regardless of how ego maniacal a spy might be."Oh let them mess with in game mechanics..we don't want to give them the satisfaction of knowing that we know."..w/e

Stuff like this. There was another to the north of Kingscrest that we burned quickly, still really annoying. This happened all. Day. Long. Across the map.
We need to know who these people are, true, but even if we know... there's nothing we can do to stop them. We'll curse their names, but be unable to take any action.
