Look at this from the shaman's perspective: He calls CC, gets no response for this camp, starts killing the mob, and at 50% in someone runs in, charms it, trains him, then takes the loot.

1. You may not steal kills.
Kill Stealing is defined as the killing of an NPC for any reason that is already fighting or pursuing another player or group that is prepared to engage that same NPC without that group's specific permission.

You were clearly killstealing since the shaman had already engaged and gotten it down to 50%.

In general, if the placeholder or placeholders for a spawn are being killed, that 'camp' can be considered held by the player doing the killing so long as they are keeping the placeholders (or the room if there are no placeholders) cleared, within the same zone, do not die or log off.

You left the zone, were afk long enough to grab a drink, and the mob was up. It was no longer your camp.
Quote:
10. You may not disrupt the normal playability of a zone or area.
Zone/Area Disruption is defined as any activity designed to harm or inconvenience a number of groups rather than a specific player or group of players. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Causing intentional experience loss to other players (deliberately impeding fleeing players by blocking their escape route, intentionally training NPCs on other players, etc.).

You charmed his mob, sent it at a far away mob, then gated out. Sure seems like you intentionally trained him.

Kinda didn't want him running away with "my" shovel so I dictated wiz while we sorted it out

This is the moment where you had to choose between escalation and de-escalation. De-escalation would have been saying "hey I was camping that" and waiting until he finished the kill to talk it over. Escalation is charming the mob mid-fight.
I get that Chardok has a relaxed unofficial player agreement, but if you stayed in zone and stayed on top of spawns you wouldn't have ended up in this kerfuffle. If your excuse was "I wasn't in zone when they called for CC" I don't think that's gonna cut it.
