Well since we don't have the whole story, its hard to say what really occurred, but I have a feeling there was a complete lack of sharing.
It doesn't matter how he was killing the mobs - the fact he was there first means others were buttheads butting their way into what should be considered a camp. 99's rules are rather lax on what they call a camp. The one thing it does say is that roaming mobs don't work as a camp.
Sad to say that it seems more like any mobs that don't pop a named are treated less like a camp and various nefarious folks feel they have the right to treat other players badly.
Here is my advice: if you feel you were wronged or are being harmed as a player no matter how you choose to play... PETITION if a GM shows up though an online petition great but chances are slim since they are volunteers so follow it up with an Forum (offline) petition. Repeated behavior from player will be dealt with. It seems the more you want to just solo, the more often you run into others that think too bad for you we are just going to do what we want because we can kill more / faster then you.
What would have been nice to see in this instance is communication from the others looking at the giants and figuring out if they could share the area with you or what not... not just barge in and start killing things just because some of the mobs were spawned. As the 99 rules state its better for players to try and work things out before involving CSR / GM...
