None of those work for the bard bound at TD fire pots. Or come to think of it, the DE SK bound at TD firepots too who does nothing but HT the half of the server who is bound there with him over and over again.........
Yes, indeed we must keep the xp loss in, its the only insurance vs. that level of grief. Every class must have a price to pay.
I know you say we should not form policy around "rare" circumstances. But then who would of thought Lethdar would bind next to CT in plane of fear and spend night after night chain triggering the CT deathtouch script either?

I responded to the Bard bound in TD situation already, and you just ignored my post. It's not just that it's a rare situation, it's that pvp exp loss doesn't actually fix the problem in that scenario. One bard played well should ruin a wizard's quadding experience whether they're bound in TD or not. They probably wouldn't even die once unless the wizard was armed to the teeth with conflag wands; if they did die, it wouldn't be enough that exp loss would deter them. It's just a bad argument.
I could say the same about the dark elf SK with ring of the dead. It's also one class/race combination and I'm not too concerned about it because so far no one has tried using the ring for this purpose, either here or on Live (on RZ they could have done the same thing naked - HTing someone over and over from their bind point - and without exp loss this still didn't happen). Like I said before, you can hyperbolize and invent farfetched scenarios where pvp exp loss is good, but in the majority of situations it will be bad.
