Did you seriously bind half the gift drops???? I paid $50 got 50x gifts opened them up at a 50x gift party to see half my stuff is bound? what are you guys doing? why would you bind 3 redcap companions and 2 wolf mounts??? What are you guys smoking, I mean its a lottery if I win a big prize it should not be bound.... I say half the gifts because I have 2 bound redcaps comp. and 2 unbound??????

Any parcels that drop from the lanterns reward bound items.
EDIT: Also, some of the stuff shares the original binding properties. Thinks like retraining tokens are BoA, as are a lot of the old CTA rewards. Some of the things, like some of the pets and mounts should still be BoE.
This is consistent with how it was last year. Yes, it sucks when you get repeats of existing gifts and can't do anything with them...I believe last year it was suggested that pets have a refinement value or be able to be turned in for Companion Tokens....but obviously you know where that went.
Yes it sucks if you get multiple copies of the same pet -- or get a cool pet bound on a leadership alt -- but by design the items dropped from gift parties are character-bound.
Run gift parties with that in mind.

The free parcels you might get from the "gift parties" bind to your character.
To avoid binding good stuff to your leadership alts, have them "use" their gifts in a gift party with others who want the gifts, then switch to your good character before others in the party use their gifts. If you are doing this with guild mates, it's not too hard to rotate through "useless" alts and active characters.
Edit: And I agree that account-bound would make life easier, but this is free stuff so I'm not going to complain.
Starlight parcels are purchased from Zen store, you get a coupon to get one for free everyday, and the rewards are not bound. That's very generous to the players already, I don't know how people can still complain with this.
Starlight bags are received randomly when party members use Gift of Simrils, the rewards from these are character bound so people can't exploit this and get tons of top items to sell.
