The ignorance is what bothers me. You think you know how everything works, but apparently just want to bitch about apples and oranges.

-Item linking - client/source? or both
-what 9th spell slot? its gone
-old UI is on the client, once again.
-keymapping 1-6, on the client, once again

Firstly, its the client. Secondly, if you cared enough to look into it, you would realize that it is not possible. Its easy to tell someone else to do it though, right?

If there was a switch to revert all of these things to classic, we'd flip it. Obviously there isn't. You are preaching like we have a giant list of on/off levers.

Submit fixes for this stuff yourself, learn how to do it, or stfu.

Last but not least, we don't answer to you. So you telling us what we should be working on is mildly irritating.

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy playing and am greatful for what you guys are doing.

I really don't understand why it has been decided to be changed after almost a year. It just sucks as a newer player to p1999 that so many people got to play before without worry of being a burden to the group and not getting in to groups cause of an xp handicap. If I want to choose a class that takes twice as long to level, great, that's my choice. But, I really do feel guilty knowing I am sucking up everyone else's xp.

Seems like it will do nothing but encourage soloing in the mmo that was by far the most fun to group in.

No I haven't played as Hybrid yet, but I have grouped with one. I was with a full group and had an ogre SK as the tank, 2 hours later the SK had to go and got replaced with a wood elf warrior. I gained 3 yellow with the SK in those 2 hours, in the next 2 hours with the warrior I gained 4 yellow 1 blue.

It could have just been the speed in which we were killing at after the SK left maybe? But our puller was a Monk and he seemed to pull the same speed the whole time through. So yeah, I level faster WITHOUT a Hybrid in the group.

However, like you quoted me on but apparently didn't understand. If you are the hybrid then you will be leveling faster now in a group with this patch, then you did with a group before the patch. Now you get more EXP per kill then you did last week if grouped. The GROUP gets less, but you get more. So YES, you DO level faster now if you are the hybrid in the group.. If a group wants to take you now, well thats a different story =)

I, for one, will happily go right along not giving one fuck about the group composition, provided it is alive, well and productive.

I am pretty content with my exp gain on my sk, honestly it is much easier that I remember it.... has been awhile though.

Luckily I am one of few tanks online around my level during my peak playtime, so usually find a group anyway!

I just want to thank the devs for staying true to classic despite the whiners... The exp penalty sharing was in classic until velious, so that's where it should be on this server too... Until velious. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I'll still take hybrids in my groups any day regardless of the penalty as long as they're a good player.

Wow...I can't believe you continued to whine about this after getting seriously chewed out by the PM. That takes a special kind of denseness.

The server staff doesn't need to hear you reiterate your less-than-informed opinion over and over again. If you really want to help out, maybe you should try donating?

I play a barb shaman, so I have only a slight XP penalty. That will not stop me from continuing to group with the Ranger and Necro that I have been leveling up with. If anything, it sounds like this will help the Ranger stay closer to us in levels.

Quick question, does the Banned below someones name mean they are banned in game, or that their forum name is now banned?

You have gotten better at sucking up! (107)

(you call me dense, i can respond with the same immaturity)

Oh, and Extunarian, of course I'm going to "whine" when I get rejected several times daily to be in groups because of my 68% exp penalty. And I'm a tanking class that is at least needed in most group situations... imagine the poor DPS'ers.

Am I just supposed to say, "Ok, guys, Thanks!" Would you?

I was trying to defend fellow hybrids/monks because you are the acception about grouping with hybrids. Most people will choose to not group with them and leave groups of nothing but hybrids scraping along at a snails pace.
