Can't wait :-) We used to have a situation where BGs gave no XP, and some players would hold their toons at (for example) 69, allowing them to gear up and whup ass on players who were just passing through to higher levels. There was a great wailing and gnashing of teeth these twinks when Blizz changed things so that BGs *did* give XP. They were offered the consolation prize of being able to turn off XP, but those who did so would play BGs only against other players who had also done so; the bullying was at an end, and they were not happy. This is the other shoe dropping. pt
