It's not exactly what I mentioned, but in effect it's very nearly the same thing. The bottom line is that the EXP is split up to the group to make everyone level at roughly the same rate regardless of individual penalties/bonuses.

Wrong.

Certain Races / Classes have an XP penalty. There is NO penality applied to the group. The way the mechanic works is based on the overall XP the char has earned.

Because classes with the 40% (or any other pen) require MORE xp to be a specific level, the XP is broken up in a way that the group receives less.

This however ONLY applies if the class in question actually has more total xp than the rest of the people in the group.

If you invited a 40% xp class to your group, that was 5 levels lower than everyone else, they wouldn't be penalizing the group in the slightest.
