In response to the first item mentioned, preaching. What people seem to forget is that tha cut away scene is automatic and no control and in my open totally OOC. When my character preaches she would not be yelling or stomping her feet. I see no problem with it if a person is far away from a group. Take Tyra for instance.
If someone was preaching by the red trident and lets say a group started to form around Waukeens near the gate that is enough distance.

During the event of Kala and Kali, there was a lull in the action everyone was mulling about. Cara was in the bleachers, Kala and Kali were goofing around in the arena. Everyone else was on the opposite side from Cara far away so would not have heard her preaching. She is a Druidess so a priestess so naturally she would promote her faith as she is directed to.

I have been in situations with other players run off and preached to npc's. Personally it does not bother me as when this was done we were walking to our next area.

Yes descretion should be used but preaching is valid rp. You may start solo but then people come along. Those people need to take that in concideration.
