There's a difference between losing an unfair fight and being griefed.

Losing an unfair fight is PVP, where you lose cause you're caught off guard or outplayed or outnumbered or even outgeared. Getting griefed by OOR support isn't PVP, and the PNP contemplates this, and (assuming OP's story is true-ish) I hope people get banned.
Well getting "griefed" by getting smoked by a twink or player with OOR help sucks but with PnP it is only 1 pvp death. It is only about 15 minutes out of your way to get corpse and try somewhere else. If people are holding down a zone like this hopefully aid comes eventually. It is one of the reasons yellow text is a good thing, to show the server what is happening. Situations like this can actually bring the community together and connect low level with higher levels that are anti-grief players.

I think the PnP rules limit the damage of the griefer mentality and the server needs villains. Some people like playing white knight and want the chance to attack the griefers. It gives people something to do.
