Stop being so negative. Global ooc is for finding groups, and if group exp was by far the more efficient method of leveling then I bet it'd be used a ton more.

You dont seem to get it, ill repeat it one more time. If you nerf solo xp and add group bonus, all it does for my lvl 7 wiz is that hes now got brutal grinding slow speed and still no people to group with.
You cant nerf solo xp before the population goes up, that would just be dumb, especially since we know what it does to the population, we did it back this winter.
Thats just the reality of it, when someone logs in, most likely hes not finding any groups soon. Especially since he cant OOC if people wants to start one.
If he creates a character in freeport, and theres people killing bats and skellies at entrance, thats another thing entirely. Which was the point i was trying to make, that we need the population first, then you boost group xp.
But even then, its not optimal for population growth. Because the population cant grow forever. So for example if by 500 people pop growth slows down by alot, and the average level bracket is 40+, any new person trying to roll on the server will be in the same bad position. Group xp is up, but so what, he cant find a group.
What would probably be good is something like 200% solo xp, and 300% group xp once we have a ~500 server pop.
