EXP gain rates have really slowed post patch. Has this been a confirmed unintended change yet?

Despite a hot fix there has been no official mention or acknowledgement of the exp issue. I heard in game that it was going to be investigated but was confused when it was claimed the devs did not know the original modifier value? Check the previous database/build perhaps?

i dont speak for everyone (probably like 10% of server really) but if you want to take away our xp bonus then take away xp loss on pvp death so i dont even need to grind and can pvp all day errday.

All the people saying "shits classic brah" are morons who already got to 50+ or they'd be saying the same thing we are about the xp sucking. I guess they want the server population to stay the same / dwindle away instead of increase and prosper...idiots. Stop trying to troll new players when all you are going to do is destroy the server you get your jollies off on.

Server highest pop in months last night... is it a coincidence it occurred with the removal of UNCLASSIC exp bonus? I think not. Remove bad UNCLASSIC things like "wow ez mode" and watch the pop THRIVE

true but if we are going that route then remove of xp loss on pvp death and a pvp level range of 4 needs to be put in.

XP Loss is a NECESSARY mechanic to make up for the UNCLASSIC EXP BONUS that has been in place for FAR TOO MANY months already

I'm confused this is the Game Mechanics thread, this is where you post bugs with the CLASSIC GAME MECHANICS, exp being NON CLASSIC is not a GAME MECHANIC issue. Take this stuff to the red forums where it belongs

I think some people need to realise that if you want a better populated server, which would open up so much more in terms of PvP dynamics, you are going to have to get with the program and attract new players over. You are lucky that the recent indications of increased server integrity (one would hope genuine), has brought back quite a few players.

More players will continue to return and even new ones appear, if they feel they are on at least a close to even keel with the existing dominant players, both with respects to PvP skill and skill in pixel hording; by close to even I of course mean gaining stature over a reasonable period of time.

As one of the returning players, I see an opportunity for red1999 to become big. Yes, I think a wipe (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kJXGKRSSmQ) would be worth while, particularly if we are going to have more integrity and an active GM team.

bump any word if this is intended or not? fungis, name plates, and water not being sold by baker vendors was hot fixed but this is still not addressed?

These pvp kills are gonna sting somethin' furce. Can't wait to inflict 4-5 on bind points.

[Sun Feb 17 16:03:30 2013] nilbog says out of character, 'Not intentional. Waiting on Rogean to find out what previous multiplier was'

Hopefully saving Rogean a post and some population
