Disabling a fundamental part of classic EQ (on the server you spent ten years preparing for) doesn't seem like something a person who puts classic EQ first would do.
The P99 patch process seems pretty involved and Rogean seems to be necessary to do a lot of it, and his availability seems very limited.

From playing with eqemu on my private server I know you can disable quest xp with a quick DB change / hotfix, and this doesn't necessitate pushing new code.

Every other way I can think of to do more targetted nerfing of quest XP (like say, disabling quest xp over level ~20 via a change to the perl quest libs) involves a patch or server reset.

I'm about 99% sure that's the limiting factor. They can't do patches / code changes easily without Rogean's involvement.

I've had a lot of interactions with staff and I can say I don't recognize Nilbog from what you make him out to be in your post. There are some server balance considerations but 99% of the time if you give them classic evidence they make the change when they find the time.
