Will there be wipes between any or all of these different beta dates and types of beta or are characters made now going to carry through to official regular release?
I am looking forward to the Control Wizard. The ability to manipulate the battle in a tactical manner sounds really enjoyable, especially in a group setting.
Yes, but individuals who enjoy causing grief towards other players can do it regardless of the existence of PvP or not. That's just the sad, but true, part of people in general; there will always be those who wish to ruin any experience for another. Any game design, which involves multiple players, cannot be made fool…
PvP can be an enjoyable thing. It doesn't has to be about killing each other, but pitting wits against wits. In the spirit of D&D and the treasures and glory most players go for, I think a smart implementation would be about competing for an end goal.

Races They have listed the races they are including thus far. However, with Cryptic's Customization any humanoid race could be possible, as long as it didn't upset balance of power.
I have not seen any mention of this, but given past games from Cryptic and the information we do have thus far, I don't think these will make it into the game. I would also like it if it could, as flat and simplistic can get boring quickly, even with 'action combat'. There is a good reference for those things in DDO, so…
