Question: Would a hostile timer prevent you from taking your hostility out on someone who annoys you?
It would almost eleminate surprise PKS(they would find other ways, but they are harder), and would also stop a few hacks from working. It would also allow you to still hostile and drive away people who annoy you.
I know this issue has been beaten to death before, but obviously this person has not thought about it...
Also laughing at someone for losing their lvl 22 character is not neccesary. A lvl 22 may be nothing to you, but for someone's first realm HC char it can be a blow to lose them to a PK.
Dueling has it's place, but grief players should have no place in HC(or in SC for that matter). It's a never ending battle though; the more creative they get in prevention, the more creative the grief players get in implementation. The only thing we can hope is to make it harder for them, causing some to quit.
