Checking for equipment after a reboot? Your character knows that guy will get a replacement sword anyways, now's as good a time as any to check.
It's not as good a time as any. It's a better time.

Using a river to escape a tracking mob? "I bet that guy can't swim, and I know he isn't smart like me to carry a kayak around everywhere he goes.. I bet I can get some distance by crossing this river".. (FYI, it isn't uncommon in real life to use terrain to escape from people.)
Get some distance. Not completely foil and be 100% certain you never have to worry about it.

Chasing away a mob, so people can't find him? Maybe you can come up with a rational IC explanation that makes sense, but it I don't buy it.
You mean like chasing away a drug dealer or some other criminal so they can't ply their trade? Almost an exact metaphor for rager chasing away a magic dealer so they can't ply their trade.
Your second scenario, in real life, the chaser finds another way around and continues to track. In game they don't. Your third scenario, in real life, the drug dealer goes somewhere else or returns when the heat is off. In game they don't.

As far as it being a dick move: If you ever do something purely for the sake of making the game less fun for other people, you're a dick. I know that doesn't mean much to you, since that's pretty much your primary motivator. But that's because you're a dick.
I've never done anything with the intent to make the game less fun for anyone. You're name calling. Who is the dick?

I'm not going to argue about it with you anymore because, we both know it won't accomplish anything. You continue being a dick, I'm going to continue trying to make the game fun for everyone involved.
Argument can always accomplish something. Just because I require rationally consistent arguments doesn't mean I don't listen and consider them. It's not my fault that instead of coming up with some rational for action A or B you just draw arbitrary emotionally based lines and call anyone crossing them a dick.
Who's the dick?
By the way, on the fun stick argument. It's very unfun for me to lose my coins. Do you take coins when you win a fight? It's unfun for me to lose 1/3 con. Am I exempt from PK? I'm not joking either. I really hate those two things. I'd rather lose my shitty equipment that I can gather within the ghost timer than lose my hard earned coin and finite con.
