Nope, xp is fast enough. All that you're going to do if you increase it on the weekends is have people play just in the weekends, and most will quit at about 40. Faster xp isn't the answer and it's short sighted.

Again, that isn't the point. XP is fine, I agree. But posting crap like "XP bonus weekend!" gets people to try it out even if it was super fast to begin with. People few it as a short term opportunity. It's the same reason every infomercial ever created has the "call in the next 30 minutes and get 50% off!" shit in it...even though you'd get the same price no matter when you call. It creates a false sense of urgency and desire in people to act.

You could literally give a 5% bonus to make it 295% and call it a bonus weekend and you'd have a surge in population for the weekend, it's human nature.

Experience is fast enough. Everyone I group with on alts can't afford there spells and are using dragoon dirks or leather whips as a melee 20+.

Pop sucks because about 10% of the population of EQ players like solo-quest.

Pop sucks because server is full of toxic, tranny porn spamming douchebags and there is no options except joining the largest/ only zerg guild to experience any raid content.

All the xp bonus in the world wont change that.

Boo hoo.

We had pvp on every repop and sim repop in the last 2 weeks. If people can't get 30 people to fight another guild in Everquest, you should probably just find another game to play.
