Camping is a method of playing a FPS (first person shooter) game. Camping is the act of sitting stationary in one spot throughout a game, returning to said spot if killed or forced to move. Camping generally gives the *camper an unfair advantage over other players.
Camping is not to be confused with strategic game-play or holding of a specific location where a player needs to use logic and awareness to hold the area in question. This is playing the game how it is supposed to be played.

Look at that idiot running past the same spot consistently, i think i will stay here and kill him until he learns his lesson. <-- not camping
I will hold of this building in an attempt to increase the chances of my team winning the game. <-- not camping
I will head glitch in this corner behind this box with a 60% view of the map and hope someone runs past me. <--camper
I will run around the map pre firing corners with no interest in my team mates or the overall match <-- idiot

Someone who hides or "stays" in one place for a long period of time (usually in first person shooter games), waiting for an unsuspected enemy to walk past to direct a lame kill "see lamer", mostly unskilled players who only want to earn points for themselves in a game camp, without really benefiting their team or playing fair at all.In most games camping will eaither get you kicked or hated in a game.

a term given to a one-night-stand who will just not leave your place the next morning even after giving them the signal it is time for them to go. A camper typically stays for an hour or more. There are 5 stages of campers and each stage gets worse.
Note to editor: I just submitted a definition with all the stages, but saw that shorter may be better. But of course, do whatever you like with both entries.

"Dude. She was definitely a stage 5 camper. After staying at my place for 3 hours after we woke up, she still would not leave. She checked her facebook on my computer, ate MY food, and even asked to start a movie. Seriously bro, I can't handle campers."

A term given to those in an online multiplayer game (usually FPS) who will place themselves in a strategic position and wait for an extended period of time until a target enters his field of view. The position usually allows one to surprise the target and allows the "camper" to eliminate him with ease. There are variants of this such as camping an item to repeatedly gain its benefits and defending a critical location.
Camping is a perfectly legitimate strategy, but is criticized by a majority of the online community, usually because players get frustrated by being killed in such a fashion, it slows the game down and is considered an unskilful art. Idiots always resort to insulting a camper, who will most likely have a higher score than them. Incompetent admins sometimes kick them and the camper society becomes one of ridicule and resentment.
It isn’t illegal to position yourself in such a way that you have an advantage, that’s smart thinking and its part of the game. Some people need to grow some balls.
