That said, in spite of the fact that people are older, this reminds me a lot of middle school -- people that are spiteful and abusive towards someone else for abusing a system, even though that abuse doesn't directly harm them in any way.

Honestly, the guy's AFK leveling, train him once and kill him to stop the process -- good on you. If he misses his rez timer, even better. Maybe even train him twice, if you're feeling particularly vindictive. Take screenshots, etc. And you know, had the mob stayed at his bind and just killed him over and over and you had just left, that would have been different too. Same outcome, but remarkably less douchey. The fact is, you spent an hour (or hours) of your day ruining some dude's day, intentionally, just for shits and giggles. Congratulations -- you act a lot like I did in the middle school PE locker room at 13.

Maybe the hardcore players on the server are younger -- I don't play very often, since I'm a grad student and have absolutely no free time. But I'm surprised that everyone seems to have supported this, since it was so obviously a dick move (not training him in the first place, but devoting two hours to doing it over and over).
I lol'd... wait wrong response... tl:dr.
