So if players want to continue trying to exp around hostile players, something like this exp loss needs to be in place in an effort to deter them.

Why?

Why should we deter players from attempting to get back their XP spot after getting engaged by hostiles?

Why should players run away, log off, go baking, at the first sign of trouble on a pvp server?

Because they lost already, and are dead.

Because death sucks.

This is all covered in the LnS thread

LnS = dont come back till we done here, we killed you once and want to continue farming/expin this area...one less person to worry about/watch our backs from

It prevents bind rushers and people who dont respect the LnS rules with xp loss

First of all, whats this "bind rush" thing? You cant bind rush with low health or mana, nor can you do this on a melee character without your gear/health.

It takes me about 8 minutes on a naked LVL12 wiz IIRC to go from death health/mana bars to full. How is that rushing?

That seems awfully carebear to me, this "bindrush" speak. I would keep that stuff for msging GMs on blue that someone stole your camp. It seems just another way to ensure that powerful guilds get access to the best shit EZ mode style.
