Having played, raided, and pvp'd as a bard on live back in the 'old era(classic->velious)' I can confirm that mez and charm were longer 18 sec songs, whilst regular buffs were 12 sec.
Back in live it was difficult to get 4 twist because there was no extra time added for latency, which back then was usually 200ms+, leading to the experience steaks was talking about.
On red99 as it is currently, 4 twisting is np, its easier than it was in live.
As for dots, I'm actually unsure. Its hard to rely on subjective memory especially when its being clouded with emu experience. But I can say that there is a pvp issue. Not every time, but semi-often PVP ticks will miss and you'll only get 2 messages instead of 3. This inconsistency should be fixed, but I am unaware if this may be down to how ticks work.

The charm durations are correct as it turns out, at least for this point in the timeline:
