No he didn't technically lose his camp after dying. The
play nice policy is clear about this, he returned to a broken camp. You don't even need to be in the camp to still hold it, clearly written.
Even then, simply for the sake of avoiding lawyering, they simplified the policy, but the camp can be reclaimed within a reasonable amount of time after a re-spawn of that camp. Certainly a petition to a GM will result in a decision in favor of someone that returned to their corpse at a camp they have held while having a CR taking longer than it takes to repop the spawn.
This is why /ooc CC's are very valuable, because if a dispute arises, sometimes others will vouch for you having been holding the camp from previous CC's and avoid needing to call a GM to resolve.
In this case, a broken camp is just hands-down obvious. People need to be aware of missing mobs in a familiar static camp when claiming a camp, that's their fault not the OP's. Even when moving into a new camp that isn't broken, don't discount that it's already camped and someone may show up 10m after you got there saying that they had been there for some time. I've been on both ends of that situation a number of times, usually working out well. Just don't blow up off the bat and make it into some drama. Sometimes it does though :/ especially if that camp is a single static mob (grr with a placeholder you killed 10 times already)... and even still after others vouch for you from previous CC's, some people just like to start trouble.
