Global OOC going in with next patch (Level 10+), No @ YT, There's already an XP Bonus, will discuss hybrid penalty, will see about fixing mana on pvp death, I like the no binding in FFA zones - will ask nilbog his opinion, resist system is null, and we have more content being released on patch too.

no exp loss on pvp death: You guys can discuss that. It is currently serving multiple purposes of providing atleast something to deter people from bind rushing / kamikazing against odds, as well as giving people a reason to continue EXP Groups at 50. Toss out opinions though.
I don't have strong opinions on Global OOC, exp or the hybrid penalty. I think yellow text is a horrible idea for reasons that I already elucidated in several threads (and which were mostly ignored by the people trolling for YT). I think that exp loss on pvp deaths, and no binding in raid zones are unnecessary if you simply make casters go oom when they die in pvp. This is just how it was in classic, there was never a need to disable binding in raid zones or make people lose exp, because casters couldn't effectively bind rush with no mana. I think it's unfair to remove a unique ability of these classes (binding anywhere) when the less extreme, more classic deterrent to bind rushing (going oom after you die) hasn't been tried yet. Some zones were binding disabled on Live already (hate, sky, kunark dungeons, TD eventually) and so it should just stay that way - there's no need to disable binding in even more zones.
