You didn't cause him to delete. You just annoyed him as a player because you lied and said he stole from another rager. That would annoy me, too. No one likes a liar.
As for the rest of your note, Grallon, you're right, and sorry. No one likes to spam kill, and it sucks that the Imperials were forced to slay you and the others over and over again because the villager heroes kept raiding for the Codex. Realistically, though, it wasn't a "horde." It could have gone better for you.
Anyway, you'll play again, because you like the game (and people stop playing games when they get bored with them, usually), and next time you play keep in mind that CF has become very ugly. Everyone gangbangs. Everyone acts like a jerk (even the good aligns). Try not to take it personally. It's just a game, and when you get into the PKing side of it, it's helpful if you look at it like you're playing Street Fighter and not get too attached to your character's life and not expect to overcome and kick ass every time you go out there. What would really make you feel better is to roll up a shaman and wipe the floor with Minalcar and Laudernan, over and over (although they'll probably drop link at the altar after losing their gear the first death, which is what most people do, and what erlien probably should have done). It's a game, really. If you find yourself getting pissed off after a death, drop link at the altar (again, like most people do) and after a few days or a week, you'll probably pick the character up again and regear and kick ass and die again and drop link at the altar again, and so on and so on. Heh. I learned this after dying to fucking Ryu and the same "fireball fireball uppercut combo" over and over and over, and it's not the most terrible way to look at games.
