Lowbie quest xp

[Polixa]

I got around to creating a couple of green characters. Said in polls I wouldn't, but they sucked me in of course.

I read on forums last week that belts, fangs and chips were giving neglgible xp. Is that still the case?

If so, are people stockpiling them for when xp is restored, or have we been told this is how it will be for the duration?
