So yeah, I don't care about the death knight imbalance. It is there no matter what you do. Well that isn't true, I suppose you could start DKs at L70, reset honor, eset gold, reset rep, reset mounts, and reset gear for everyone else. Then it would be a level playing field (because money does help you level faster, and if you level faster you can get an edge in PvP). So yeah, maybe if you start everyone naked at L70 with all the same rep and all the same money, and then change all the quest rewards and quest locations so that the folks who played beta don't have an advantage you can make it even. That sure would be fun. :)

The fact that there's going to be an imbalance does not justify making it worse.

And really, gold can be freely transferred between characters on the same realm and faction. In order for you to even make a DK, you have to have a high level toon already. Gold isn't a problem. Reputation doesn't matter; there's little to no advantage in being Exalted with an outdated faction. Mount training just costs gold; beyond that, they're vanity pets. Gear is getting reset. Reset honor and start the DK at level 70, and the playing field would be as even as it could be.
