This was some time ago, but the person never swore, or even acted aggressive. In fact, he made no effort to stop you from killing him (repeatedly), or from sacrificing his blue steel Galadon guard gear.

He definitely didn't drop link, as you killed him at 00:09, 00:28, 00:46, and 01:03 system time. Given that the ghost time is just over 15 minutes, hard to see how any link manipulation came into play.

He did ask (over yell and the newbie channel) where the trainer was. Not sure what was so provocative about that. After you killed him, he more or less sat around the same room and spoke with a nearby druid, who encouraged him to get off his butt and look for new stuff. He eventually unghosted, and you killed him in the same room, with him wearing nothing.

This isn't an isolated incident. You play a lot of lowbie-bashers who only go after the clueless, and spend a lot of time trash-talking them. (Heck, we've very recently gotten notes to immortal about some of the 'less impressive' roleplay these characters have shown.) Rationalize it however you want, but don't expect me to believe that you give a crap about newbie retention in general.
