On corpse rotting: lvl based, imo. if corpse is like 40+, I'd say turn off corpse rotting entirely. Someone could die either in a dungeon or to guards in some obscure location and someone else can stumble on the corpse 2 weeks later and it'd still be relevant. it's not like lvl 40s can generate a lot of corpses...

on lvl 1 immunity, it's a tough call. griefing will suck on either side of the coin. Maybe a timer on pre-lvl6 immunity, like 30m? It'd help prevent muling and crafting nonsense, amongst other things.
Quoting myself because it took two days for this to show up(mod approved!), and yet still posted two pages back.

If I had to pick right now, I'd go with noob-zone immunity for under 6, or even up to 9 (gives you at least a small chance to survive zoning away from starting areas). This place has too many bottom feeders who have their own definition of winning (xtreme griefing). I think the very rare possible abuses of immunity would pale in comparison to the starter areas/spawns being on lockdown an hour into the server if there's none. I'd rather a few peeps benefit from a mule bank since that affects almost nobody, in comparison to spawn-camping and griefing starting zones, which affects 90% of the population and WILL occur for the first week by people who have no interest besides playing the server start and griefing noobs in as assholish a manner as possible.

If there was no immunity I'd live with it and enjoy the server, but it'd be a HUGE deterrent to re-rolling much since there wouldn't be much point after the first few hours, at which point Jabober, Zoner, and Goner will rule the noob lands.
