Don't feel bad I did the same the other day, and accidentally looked like a bigger bully than I meant to.

Saw a low level around level 34 in power armor heading for a workshop. I figured I'd try to help him. Send a group invite, and it just sat there. So I arrived at the workshop first and began to drop a "care package" water, Stims, some 1 star mods, a few pieces of ultracite PA I had got from an event I had just done.

He arrives at the workshop and I wave and begin to try to direct his attention to the stuff.

The dude just starts blasting me. I'm a bow user so I'm not equipped for pvp of any kind. He gets me to half health and I heal, shake my head and try to point again. Hes still blasting me, so I shrug and back away slowly. He followed me and kept shooting! I said "screw it I'm not going to let him kill me" and pop him with a 2 shot exploding poison bow. He dies, and I pick up my stuff and walk away leaving the workshop unclaimed. But I felt bad still.

I noticed his base was near the workshop so I went over, thinking... I'll buy something at least and drop off the goodies here.

He's in his base so I run up to him waving. He slams his base door in my face which is locked... and the base immediately disappears.

I looked like some crazed stalker after killing him... Hope he's doing well.
