Bind rushing won't be an issue until months in to the server when there's for real raids going on. And it's possible that bind rushing will fall under the "play nice" rule set and will be dealt with by GMs. And there's a big difference between "regrouping, medding, and rebuffing" and just straight bind rushing.
What will be more prevalent is gank squads. There will be hundreds of times during each character's "life" where unpreventable, indefensible PvP death is going to happen. We all deal with it. You can't do jack shit about it (unless you're a gate class/plugger), and now have to figure out how to get your corpse out of some deep dungeon as a Warrior – and losing exp for it as well? Kinda lame.
With PvP exp loss I think more people will contemplate porting/running/camping because of how precious it is at the classic rate, but if it were out they would actually stand their ground. Again I think it's an extra dynamic that will weigh on peoples' minds when it come down to flee or fight.
