As, well not everyone, but a large part of the active playerbase knows, I got killed by Nymm while I was attempting to redeem myself. Now, the events went as such:
It all started with me walking around, occasionally sending Death Match challenges to people there I knew and other people whom I didn't know at all. At this point it's shaping up pretty much like Cinnamon's back in the days, when he got banned after permanently killing a player in a Death Match. He said to him that he wouldn't lose Learning Skills, tried it on more players and got banned. Back then it was a fuzzy area, soon made quite sharp as you said in your post, you would not have helped a person who accepted a DM from me, which comes with invitation and warning and being named Death Match pretty much made sure I didn't get accepted, which was great luck in retrospect. But the order of events when whatever it was, happened, makes no sense.
Then as it happened, still walking around I get the message: "You've permanently crossed.." and I flash red.

Now, I've gone PK a few times before, each time a decision made then executed. Of course I died all the times I didn't re-roll, got mad, upset, sad, angry, paranoid, et cetera. But I always reached the following conclusion: That's a risk I knew of beforehand. But this was vastly different, usually I set to stalking, waiting until I would suddenly start the battle and do what I did. This time I simply stood there, flashing, just having seen the message saying I was now a PK'er, not having Forced Combat, seen the supposed prey, hadn't attacked it, received a kill message. None of the usual signs telling people they just willingly and deliberately attacked someone. Not knowing what was happening I went onto my other account, then I was told Vengeful was a PK'er. He couldn't be contacted. Now, you said:

In the sake of fairness since there would be no special undoing of someone accidentally accepting one of your random deathmatch requests there will not be one for you either.

Now, I hope you can see the difference. Reading this, the suggestion I kill him, bothered me. It took me a couple of minutes to realize I had already gated into town, hence cleaning me of any battle participation. Now, then you suggested/explained the NPC-Mob may have killed the man or he escaped from the NPC-Mob and that leads me here:
Isn't it now clearer how unfair it is I get the entire blame for 1) the ensuing events 2) I become a Player-Killer who didn't attack another player or even knowingly Force Attack on him, yet I'm labeled as one and must pay the price.
I even lost the SB-TC's I had bought earlier that day when that happened and that's not created virtual currency, it's what you and I live on.
Now throughout since right after Beta I've had 3-4 paid characters. That is 4x accelerator / 3x 4 month prem. / 1x 4 month prem. / 1x virtue pack / 3x ~10 solo virtues [30x5$]. As if this wasn't quite a lot, I have 2-3 hotmail folders with receipts from 5$ - 40$.
That's how much I've paid for a hardcore PvP game who has changed so significantly. I still stayed and now I've pointlessly and unresonably lost TC's I had just bought but more importantly, everything he built and gathered spending his time on that game, was taken away.
For clicking 3 millimeters too high.
I stress, this is not a demand but a plea.
I realize this has never happened before here on Nod, but evidence speak clearly:
1. I got into town instantly after I began flashing, that seems like a possible flaw.
2. No killing message or anything of the sort.
3. I took the blame for either: a) something someone else did / b) something that didn't really happen.
4. First thing I do is go into town, contact you and supply with the details of what just happened.
Nymm, the man who PKK'd me today when attempting a redemption already gave the items back after hearing how the situation was. But those items don't fit a character of lvl. 8.
I don't demand, I'm not threatening anything at all. I simply want to put this out here, I really do believe I did not deserve my fate and hence that I am entitled, not to compensation but restoration of stats and skills.
The people tend to agree with me, becoming a PK'er and losing everything because of suspicious circumstances like this is not what the law is meant for.
With this last addition, I leave this up to you.
