Either way fast xp is the same as needing two characters to play one character with the state of the community. (In about 50% of the cases of classes)

Fast XP is doing a minimal amount to increase population.

The community will never grow because its attracting the wrong player base and its not being developed externally, or by word of mouth, or whatever.

Might as well enable boxing. There is no point in playing on this server unless you have a certain Nihilistic play style. (read Nihilistic as, amoral, or uncaring, unguided, self centered, unethical, without meaning)

Its not in the Spirit, of EQ.

It may even be counter intuitive to you. But I believe wholeheartedly that fast EXP increases the rate at which players run out of content and burn out and get bored with the 'process' of playing EQ. And other means of cheating the xp curve. People with 6 alts in good/BIS gear are RIPs here usually. A low exp rate sustains the struggle for dominance. Prolongs exploration. And increases the need for teamwork. Or other creative gameplay, that may be more emergant then normative for acheivement based players.

Achievers will never have the opportunity to grow, mature, and appreciate pvp on this box because things are handed to them on a silver platter in that case.
