Yeah this always bothers me, not plvling, that's fine.. but the timing.

If you're going to plvl in a high traffic zone, do it on off hours.

Second, you're plvling so the whole world is basically open to you.

Try to actually learn the game: RE, Najena, sola.. or hell if you want to use a zone pick a big one where no one will notice you like upper guk on the live side zoneline, Paw.. maybe even Freeport sewers? I should explore those actually, I only know the Qeynos catacombs.

There are options, but no.. prime time, CB, UR, Kurns, ruining the playtime of 5-10+ players so two or three players can save time.

Here is the thing, if a new player experiences the game via plvl then their character has a tendency to mean less to them as they didn't work for it. Being a guild leader and watching a lot of new players level up I have noticed that those players who are the poorest, die the most, and receive the least reprieves somehow tend to be the ones who hang it there and end up being solid players and guild members.

So don't introduce the game to your friends through the barrel of a plvl but instead teach them social conventions and how to work through a dungeon.

Honestly there are multiple compromises I won't get into and shouldn't have to. Over half of this server is semi-aware of the game. If you were in the shoes of the players complaining, and the ass in the zone was someone else, whose side would you be on?
