One thing that might, and I do say might, not certain... would be to reinstate the bard perks, maybe as slightly modified versions. Since they require a pure bard, there'd be more incentive to go pure.
That doesn't stop multiclassing, though. I've never been that big on limiting things, but I agree, I've seen some rather, hum... "interesting" bard multiclasses on this server. There have been characters who clearly do not portray the bard in any way, you just see them randomly use a song in combat with no RP involved, whether it be a shout, hymn or whatever... or they just strip nude to buff up and Bob's your uncle.
