All this with a wizard, he must be amazingly godlike at the game just finding everyone wherever they are, it's simply magical.
On topic:
Anyone who thinks slow exp would hurt the server pop is an idiot, i'd say the slower the better.
The fast exp formula has been tried and tested in many different ways on vz tz and has proven to fail miserably at keeping hackers out etc.
It's also nice having an actual punishment for dieing in pve, while exp is worth a lot on p99 it wasn't worth shit on vz/tz ever. Remember training over and over with your naked lvl 60th? Well that shit might actually hurt you on P99 red, cause you'll care about your hard earned exp.
I have absolutely no problem in exping for a year and invest a shit ton of time into my character, as long as i know this shit isn't gonna get wiped when the trolls feels like it should.
I simply say, the slower the exp, the better for the pop (the pop that actually wants to play eq and not just logon, grief and log off).
PS. I also support EXP DEATH on PVP, even with slow as fuck exp, the more consequence on dieing, the more fun, however i do not support item loot since some classes are garbage without good loots. Dieing should be felt.

Mr Smed. Why would you support EXP Loss on PVP death?
That would discourage people from PVP who would normally try to fight someone but won't; fearing xp loss. (same as item loot imo)
and also increase griefing.
The game is going to be hard enough. Most people don't realize that death on RED99 will hurt substantially (Not talking directly to you Smedy)
We don't need the extra loss on PVP deaths. It would also increase so many negative outcomes. Most importantly population.
Any rule that can protect the population is a good one imo.
Hope you're doing ok pal.
