I've played on the server for 3.5 years, also, and I've never seen this bard situation like it is now. Personally, I've never had any problems with them because I don't tend to play in the particular zones that they tend to kite in. And, for the record, the bard is one of my favorite classes and I love to kite...I just don't do it here because I got into other classes shortly after I rolled my bard (my first toon) and never really played it. Bards are fun to solo, they are fun to group with, and they are fun to have in groups, if they are good. Many aren't, but that's a whole other conversation.

But there is most definately a problem of late because of the sheer number of people doing it now (and the sheer number of people affected) and the sheer number of people trying to do it and failing, which is probably where most of the problems lie...Sooner or later it's going to have to be addressed. Just ignoring it because of what the posted rules say, that are 4 years old, by the way, when the topic comes up multiple times daily, is talked about constantly in-game, and has created a general disdain for an entire class as a whole, while the GMs are commenting more and more on it, is just a little naive, dontcha think?

This is going to end badly for some people and I highly doubt it's the ones you are telling to "cry harder."

I don't know what gives you the impression that anything has changed or will change, this same argument gets rehashed every few weeks for YEARS. People have always complained about bards swarm kiting; they always will and nothing has ever been done about it; what in the world makes you think this is any different? Swarm kiting is within the ruleset for outdoor zones, period.
