What we've done with AX Classic is flag "Classic" zones as trivial to anyone 50 and over. A level 50+ can still go there, but cannot fight any of the mobs. I like this because I want to keep Classic zones challenging and rewarding, but still play in some of those great zones like the LoY ones, without any temptation to exploit the Classics.
We also have the bots very keyed down, so as just to acquire them and some of their spells will be a challenge- And their's zones flagged as "no raid" , to avoid exploits with bot-raid groups.
Could you elaborate on how you did that?
I suppose you running a script which check players level when it gets on mobs hate list and then- i don't know- kick them from the zone?

The thing is- I need an exact reverse - the mobs should be killable, but no XP awarded.
