<p>I come from a blue server so I am not sure of all the "unofficial" rules of PvP. My question, is it ok to camp a spawn point?</p><p>Thanks</p>

<p>Yes, as long as there "pvp solution" Meaning the opposing faction could call in extra help to kill you, you can hassle players as much as you want, Although I don't suggest being an jerkoff. </p>

<p>A counter question, why camp their spawn point?</p><p>If you've killed them all you get from griefing someone is disrupting their game play. Kill them once and they go on recent. If you engaged them when their health was above 50% you get the pvp kill, engage when lower than 50% you don't but they still go on recent.</p><p>Camping someones spawn point and killing them repeatedly will get you a bad name with the opposition faction so be prepared for it to happen to you as well as the numerouse t-baggings that will follow. Griefing people repeatedly is an ugly part of PvP that should result in negative consiquences but it dosn't. I'm a bit simple minded and feel that i'll pvp in a way that hopefully other people will pvp on me. I try not to grief people but if someone comes back for a 2nd round i'll happily stay and send them back to the rez point. If they persist on doing it then i'll just go somewhere else. No point in being kept in zone whilst they get friends to come kill someone they fail at. If i kill someone i try not to engage them again and will carry on my way questing or what ever i may be doing. I try not to kill grey tradeskillers in the SF zones. Greys give me nothing (the faction argument is old and tired. If your not max faction by 90 then you really do need to ltp. If all your worried about is KvD ratio then people really do need to get out more <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />) and i my self have low lvl toons that are crafters that i want to do those faction quests so it would be nice to have the same respect whilst i go about my business.</p><p>Camping spawn points in BG's on the other hand just get the fights over with quickly and enable the 2 teams to go on their way much faster. If one team is able to kill your team and then camp the spawn point they have much more firepower and will win if they fight you in the middle or at your revive point.</p>

<p>Not much point in doing that for many reasons, the main one being that they are immune from pvp until they decided to leave the revive area.</p>

<p>In my eyes, engaging some one over and over is beneficial to both players. This is a pvp server so by playing on this server you are choosing to pvp. If some one is engaging you, they are doing you a favor. They are giving you exactly what you came here to get. Pvp. I will reguarly sit in an area and kill the same people over and over again. I am simply enhancing theres and my gaming experiance by giving us what we came here to get. pvp.</p><p>Have you enhanced some ones gaming experiance today?</p>

We were dead before we could even completely zone in. It was a BG instance and it was a premade group from Nagafen that was camping the spawn. I was just wondering if that was what PvP was like.</p>

<p>I agree that this is a PvP server and if you want to camp and rekill players, by all means do so. If i dont like being killed over and over I will call out and camp and or go to another zone. The thing I like to do most is get a class that i can fight the guy who just pwned me with. If a Ranger just pwned my wiz i log on the sk and see if he wants to play etc.. there is a pvp answer, its up to you to find it.</p><p>I had a guy greif me once so bad that I payed a guy 3 plat just to help me kill him. once he was dead at my feet i payed the debt and went on. its fun.</p>
