 I don't see this as very likely.  Several things would be required:

 1) Other players have a pretty precise idea of where the player was when=
 they
disconnected.
 2) They actually bother going over there and setting something like that=
 up.
 3) The player returns after the above has happened but before the map ha=

reset.

 I see that as fairly unlikely.  Truly malicous players could  actually d=

stuff like that in the town square or outside a players apartment or some=
thing.
 Fill the inn full of fire elementals or runes of death or something.
