Using a Level of a Zone for Power Leveling?

[Beau373737]

Last night I went to Befallen to hunt at level 19, teamed with a 17. When we got to the second level of befallen we were greeted by a level 60, Power Leveling someone else. She announced over the zone that the 2nd level is taken up for power leveling. Not quite understanding what is going on, my teammate and i said ok, lets just leave and find somewhere else to go. But... Befallen being Befallen... we kept getting attacked looking for a way out. We had things well under control until the level 60 trained half the floor into me. Leaving my corpse behind a locked door at the bottom of the pit. Very Upset of course I personal messaged her and asked why she trained everyone into me. She said among other things that "I warned you, you got in the way"

I died 30 seconds after she shouted that she claimed the floor for power leveling.

My question is, is this allowed? CAN people claim a level of a zone to power level someone and if you not fast enough they kill you to scare you away?

Thanks for your help and Happy Memorial Day!
