New idea against camping

What do u think about this idea:
When a killer is camping around a survivor after hanging him, his health won't dip in specific radius of the killer.
For example when a killer is nearby, the survivor on the hook will hang with the same lenght of health until a killer goes somewhere further.

    I suggested the same thing, but everyone told me it was a bad idea.

    Official ptb number 1, they tested it, survivors quickly abused it, devs told themselves to never again tray to punish killers for camping

    Another day, another rehash of the same few "new" ideas of nerfing the killers.

    Just played a game with Hillbilly who face camped(yes actually sat in the persons face and camped) not one but all 3 people and proceeded to sit on the hatch in plain site of the last 3 remaining generators. I get that camping is a strategy but come on. There's a point that this type of behavior becomes toxic and makes people stop playing.

    Or how about simply giving some kind of bonus BP for hitting/downing a survivor X amount of meters from hooked survivor?

    There are already enough anti camping mechanics. Just rush the game and leave killer with no points and depip.

    As @Raptorrotas said its survivors that make camping work.

    Camping doesn't pay the killer.. they soon realise that when they try other styles of play. Having a good team of survivors can always out smart a camper so just up the skills bro
