Why are their so many tears for people killing bankers? It's part of the appeal and allure of the game that you're capable of playing and leveling in unorthodox and unconventional ways, like killing bankers to lvl. I've never had an issue asking them to give me a moment to bank between spawns.
Because, as mentioned, there's a reasonable level of expectancy to use a core mechanic of the game. The difficulty comes from the game, not other players bending the game. When you have new players quitting the game over this and such a volume of people mentioning how aggravating it is having to schedule their own time to other people's for a simple function as banking, it's a problem (even if it isn't a problem for you).

This. They do it because it's convenient, and permit people to bank because they don't want to be banned, not because they especially care about inconveniencing others.

It doesn't make sense to me why the Bankers are on an XP table when the vast majority of city vendors aren't. How is it not zone disruption when it's forcing everyone in the zone to march to the beat of the drum of whoever decides to make a city their personal farming ground?

It's expected when it's the rest of the game, out killing camps, but it's plain ridiculous to force everyone else to come to a grinding halt, stop what they're doing, and wait around for you. In what dimension is that playing nice? How is that not literal disruption? Makes me wonder if the people getting a pass for it are big names. Hmm...
Is it ridiculous to force everyone else to come to a grinding halt so you can use a banker? There are 947 bankers in EQ, how is one dying stopping you? Get GUD!

People who quit, are quitters. They will quit for one reason or another. you cant stop them from quitting, or they wouldn't be quitters.

If you can't bank and that is the worse thing going on in your world, you must have an amazing world.

But yeah, make bankers like level 100 and non kos to everyone. And give me max level with all bis gear too.

It never sat with me right, when on my troll, that I must watch gnomes lay siege to my homeland with no recourse...

Not sure if it occurred to you genius, but in cities like Qeynos, there stands a high likelihood new players - who can't go anywhere else but Qeynos - don't exactly have access to other banks. WHOA! BRAIN BLAST! Get over yourself.
