To be completely fair here, there really isn't any clear evidence you couldn't bind in ToV either.

I'm not saying you are wrong, but it seems we're going mostly off the assumption that if clerics could have bound in ToV they would have on live, which I think is pretty flimsy.

Velious Binding Guide

Exactly where a caster can bind themselves depends on what area of the game we're talking about. In the area of the original game (i.e. Antonica, Faydwer, and Odus) a caster can bind themself anywhere, inside or out. In Kunark and Velious, however, they are only able to bind themselves in outdoor areas, and can not bind themselves in dungeons.

ToV is a dungeon. Which the Velious binding guide explicitly states you cannot bind in. That's the primary evidence. It is not a city like Kael or Skyshrine or Thurgadin, and therefore no one could bind there.

The secondary is the fact that everyone states they bind outside of ToV, which backs up the primary. If ANY of them stated they bound inside, even just one, it would collapse. But no one states that.

On live today, you still cannot bind in Kunark or Velious dungeons.

Again, if any of you claiming you remember having Guildies bound in ToV, look up some evidence to back that up. There is nothing I've found to suggest that is factual.
