What's going on with the Server (Red Update 2-5-12)

[Mittens Romney]

Honest the biggest complaint Im hearing from the guild I am in comprising of mostly lowbies is the exp rate is way to slow. i know its supposed to be a classic feel but it is such a game stopper for server newbs. I have seen 2 or 3 people quit already because they want to have fun and PvP not grind out a toon all the way to 50. The only options in lowbie pvp is ganking some half afk grinder.
