Sunwing...
So, the question is, should I stop camping there and let them easily take it?...Or should I sit and wait, and if I start taming it I get it...Even though they were there first?

Re: Sunwing...
If you want the pet, but know that after a few weeks the demand will be less and you can come back and pick it up "easier", and your ok with that, just do it. Saves you anxiety, and any possible stress/rage from others. (That and I have heard of many a pet deaths with people fighting of them. It some times ends up being.. *Well if I cant have it, you certainly wont!"... It can get ugly. )
However some people love the thrill of the chase, and adding in other people looking for the same pet just makes the hunt even more exciting. That and some people just want a pet just that bad they are happy to risk it being destroyed if it gives them a chance at obtaining it.
Personally the CRZ will and is adding a lot of fuel to the fire regarding these new rares. I too popped over to sunwings spot this morning and saw 2 others, neither of them from my realm. I thought to my self.. " Well I guess it will be harder to find her now ..." but I really did not feel up to a fight, nor see it destroyed in the process and left them to it. That and I'll try my luck some time in the dead of the night, I tend to wow late on occasion

This! ^
One of those in the area (from Saurfang) when I went to have a look did the /shoo /spit /spit
A part of me just felt really sorry for them. -_-

Re: Sunwing...
I've seen a few come and go during my camp. I figured he likely spawned about 5 minutes after I logged over to raid -_- but meh. If you need help, send me a shout!

Re: Sunwing...
To reply to the topic at hand, If someone is there first, it's common courtesy to let the person there first have it and not 'cut in line' just because you want it too, so to speak. Not every hunter is courteous but not every hunter is a jerk either. I've had plenty be mean to me but it doesn't make it right for me to be mean to another even if they didn't do anything to me. It'll just end up being an endless cycle of nastiness, yanno? Better to do onto others as you'd want them to do onto you.

Re: Sunwing...
We've all lost pets to other hunters. It's true, not every hunter is going to be nice but it never hurts to not be the hunter that ruined someone elses day. Not every hunter is mean either and you'd be surprised how many are courteous(we made several friends throughout the day that wanted Sunwing but didn't sit on us).

Re: Sunwing...
You've made a perfect example right there why its good to start adding the word courteous into the hunter vocabulary You keep losing spawns to other hunters, ones who dont give a crap and do what they want when they want to who they want. You've posted to let out your thoughts and ask if you should do otherwise, now its up to you if you want to be, to put it bluntly, the good guy and take turns and time to get the pet, or be the hunter you despise fighting against and budge in and take it for your own right away with little to no wait time. Its completely up to you who you want to be, but always remember that being a bad guy to someone makes them feel exactly how you do when someone is mean to you.Phantomwolf wrote:I'm just not sure what to say right now. Seeing your petopians doesn't make this easier but...You really shouldn't ask someone to leave. Curtosy isn't in the hunter world, it isn't. I go with the flow, I make a macro, sit in the spot and wait. I don't usually care if people have been there or not, but yall pleaded and I wondered if I'd be an...well, to be blunt, a**hole for getting it first. Apparently, I wouldn't have been. "First come, first serve" has never worked for me. Look at my post on Ashtail a long time ago. I've lost more pets than I can count - not to the opposing faction - but other hunters.

Re: Sunwing...
The law of the jungle is "If it's there, it's mine". But are we really animals? Can we sympathize with others? Can we be happy with what we have and be patient for more? I could wait. When I decide I want something, I wait for it. That's why I was there the first time I saw you check in. That's why I was there the time when you said it's up for grabs.
If I see someone camping, I move on. I don't expect the same courtesy to others. I find it shocking for the fact that, as has been said, everyone else I've come into contact with has been content to wait just to see it spawn/see it tamed/get the timer. I've had more friendly conversations with hunters coming for Sunwing than I thought I'd have. Even when I mistook Aleu and a troll for people who were content to "stack" on Junrei and myself, when I got on Horde side, I was pleasantly surprised and even appalled at myself for having assumed so poorly. I apologized more than once between emotes and actual text to them. I didn't even say anything crude like "Go F yourself you stacker whore". I just wanted to let them know that no one who camps likes to be camped on, spoke to the troll actually. And did /shoo emotes here or there. But I still felt bed.
What you do is what you do. Our opinions won't always match yours. That's what makes humanity diverse. But just try to remember that kindness reflects back onto you. Not always instantly. Karma is divine like that. But I can tell you that, even as I sit here and write this post, I got a comment about the pet you let me have and had yet another friendly discussion with another pet enthusiast who was quite grateful to know about Manas (he didn't like how dark Sunwing is). Might have made another hunter friend.
So, you can tell me that what I did was wrong. I will tell you what you did is right. I don't take any hard feelings from it, but I just wanted for you to know that you've spread a lot of happiness with that gesture. Maybe it falls on deaf ears for some people, but you've made more than just one hunter happy tonight. :3

Re: Sunwing...
And considering by that time I had been sitting there for about 5 hours, there was no way I would do that Even if it was possible to transfer money
