At this point only Kittens and Anonymous are in the zone and Anonymous tries to make a pull. The pull goes bad and trains the Kittens who have already conceded the mob but stuck around.
Now, being there is no other competition in the zone does Anonymous.
A. Concede Vindi and walk away, even though there is no more competition in the zone.
B. Pull Vindi again, because the guild Anonymous trained already conceded and are no longer competing.
C. Offer to group with Kittens and kill the mob.
Genuinely interested in what you realistically think would happen.

A, B, or C?

I still don't think those are the only options.
If there is literally no way to kill Vindi without significant risk of training Kittens AND the rules say that if you take that chance you risk a suspension, then A). Like I said, if that truly is the case Anon can choose not to risk suspension, wait until the Kittens group goes away, and kill Vindi then. If that happened there'd be a real risk Anon would lose enough people to where we couldn't do Vindi and might lose him ... but that's better than being suspended. If next week our roles are reversed and Kittens does pull through us, well hey they get suspended and on the third week there's no competition for Vindi.
But really I think the answer is to do B), but adhere to the rules and be respectful while doing it. That might mean fighting Vindi somewhere else, or asking the Kittens group to move just before the pull, or whatever. Again I haven't read every last sentence of the raid rules plus the 500-page compendium of rules interpretations and history, but even so I don't buy that Rogean and Sirken intended for an XP group to block a Vindi raid. If that's truly the way the rules are then I'd expect guilds to fuck with each other all over the place by setting up XP groups at inconvenient locations
