The whole concept of "rep stealing" presumes that it is okay to just sit at a spawn point (like the field at KH) and you "own" the mobs that spawn there because you have invested your time in waiting for them. Now, I know this game sort of motivates that bad behavior because it does not give enough non-grinding activities for higher level players, but that really does not excuse the fact that you are staking a claim to the commons and most everywhere else, that is the behavior that would be seen as rude.

I follow what your saying.
But dont see this as being that much of an issue actually, as its the attitudes of those in the situation that make all the difference.
The only time such areas become a subject is when those wanting to use a resource, find it already taken, and those that are already there are not willing to share it, or those that just showed up are not willing to share it. I only get adamant with people that try to TAKE OVER and put their needs above mine, and encourage me to leave. If I want a place to myself, I take the time to find it. And if people come along, what ensues depends on thier demeanor and action. Some are polite and ask to jump in/share (cool). Some just jump in for a minute to get something they need and take off (cool). Some just jump in, and purposefully try to ruin it for you to cause you disinterest so YOU Leave and let them have it to themselves (RUDE. KEELHAUL'EM!)
