Too much pussyfooting about respawning in beds - its a flawed concept for a PVP server - if someone finds a user's bed in a region - all they need to do is camp them back to level 1. (Yes its possible to be camped to from 55 to level 1 but would take 500 deaths) - either case, Graveyards is the way to go because we can set them as no-pvp and allow users a brief moment or two to collect their thoughts and go back into the fray.

Something not found by bed spawning. I'm not opposed to more graveyards in the rim of the map, I'm just not the person to put them there! @Xanipher

What whitemage said. Camped graveyards and walking back to your place is kind of Hardcore, but in a painfully contrived way. Sadly, I wasn't around when they were introduced so I'm unaware of the reasoning behind it, but didn't we get enough action when beds were still working?

The reasons for graveyards were to prevent bed camping.

It would be cool to see 4 on the 4 corners of the map. Or 4 at the ends of the four roads out of Dragon! :p I wouldn't say anymore... but meh, that's just me.

Yeah, I wasn't suggesting we add a dozen or so, but the current ones were set up before the map was expanded. If we put up graveyards near the border, that'll serve future expansions as well.
