This goes on society in general, not just this game.
    The only "proactive" measure you can take to find out if a hunt's window is open or not if someone is purposefully denying others information on when it was last killed is to track/stalk the players you suspect/know to be the ones who killed it last time and use their activity to judge. Having to resort to methods that could potentially be considered harassment is kind of silly.

    The only alternative is making sure no hunt goes unreported on a tracker, which is kind of unrealistic, since it's unlikely someone can be monitoring every zone with an open window 100% of the time until a spawn happens, and even if they do, they could still escape one's notice if they're not using a program that detects S ranks. I've had hunts like Wulgaru and Lampalagua go missing for over a week even without people actively trying to prevent others from getting to it just because they kept getting spawned and killed by randoms repeatedly.

    Supposedly this is a small group of players. If so it should not be an issue if the actual community which should be many times larger actually work together to re-gather the respawn timers. Seriously with just 20 people on FFXI in my primary LS we had any NM or HNM spawn timer we wanted within a couple days and the respawns on some of those were much longer than any hunt. We avoided using a public tracker simply because its trusting someone did not just post inaccurate information and made our own. Not really hard nowadays. SE is not responsible for information posted on 3rd party sites so you use those at your own risk.

    Instead they want to sit around and wait for someone else to do the work for them. Since apparently the players on their server don't want to work together to resolve the issue, now they want the game developer to do it for them.

    Please tell me how you would resolve this issue.
