The full group EXP bonus penalizes people for soloing or for not filling out their group. You lose out on EXP the smaller your group is even if the kill rate doesn't increase (which it will).
While I think it is dumb, it's even more dumb for people to rail on boxes making the game unsocial on these servers when nothing could be further from the truth. People WANT you in their group. Class, level, race or gear doesn't matter. They benefit from inviting you. Because of pick zones also its rare that zones won't have a slot for you in a group. While in Unrest there's only 1-2 camps that a level 20ish character could find a group, on Agnarr expect there to be about 5-6 picks of Unrest so 10-12 camps open for grouping in that level range.
That's why those who box 2-3 are irrelevant and the extreme minority who Box 4-6 really don't inhibit your gameplay at all.
