I personally think that getting your first mage kill (as a neutral / neutral cloud giant) by asking a mage to group and then bashing him to death is in exceptionally poor taste.
But then you seemed new, so perhaps it's OK and just part of the acclimatization process.

I don’t know why everyone expects battleragers to play any nicer than the rest of the mud. Doesn’t say anywhere that zerkers must be morons.

It is a borderline evil thing to do in character. However, if you've been waiting for a long time for a mage to login, I can understand the urge. It doesn't have much to do with intelligence. Of the character anyway.

If you're playing a character that would actally act that (ie, someone with questionable morality, deceptive, and who doesn't mind lying about who he is) that's fine RP-wise.
Whether a random neutral-neutral cloud giant warrior is actually some multi-faceted, deceptive, hiding-who-he-really is Village scout or something.. well, it sounds interesting if that's what this character was. I'm not sure I believe that's the case though.
In general, most people aren't roleplaying being deceptive assholes.. they're just taking the easy route. Also, just from a sportsmanship perspective it's a pretty pathetic tactic.

As echoed by a few, I'm not really a fan of asking anyone to group and then bash them down for your kill. And trust me, I KNOW the pain getting that kill. Its BS a lot of times. Now, I've asked people before "You traveling?Where?" I would never ask them to group.
The caveat is however IF you are sphere deception, or a sneaky bastard that is going for scout...or even could be stretched to defender...sure. So long as its within the role.
Hell, last year I made a mage to just sit around and let people get free mage kills because I know how much a pain in the ass it was. (nothing done ooc...just being nice to any and all) But I had 1 applicant ask me to group. Well...he WOULD have gotten the kill for free..but when I saw that BS I said hell no. Actually got a group and killed him :p

Grivektem the gnome invoker. (since they get hth at level 1) Sphere Courage, maybe combat.
Role: Grivektem was forced into magical studies at a young age by his parents, but he always envied the other gnomes who learned to fight with their hands and weapons. Now, though he is mage through training, Grivektem is out to prove gnome magicians can be every bit the physical warrior as everyone else, and as such he sits in marketsquare all day waiting to pummel any and all would be aggressors with nothing but his tiny fists. He'll never run from a fight, even if he may lose, because he knows the fight itself is what matters, not the outcome. A pugilistic purist at heart, he uses his own magical abilities sparingly, and never in direct combat with any other would be heroes of Thera.

So I guess it's okay to encourage this "role breaking" only if you're a MARAN leader? Stop being a hypocrite. It's not good for the game.
You're spare parts bud.
