Do pets currently take 50% of your exp?

The very same source he used stated that it was 25% at some point earlier and he still went with the 50% for his evidence.

I think you misunderstood the source.

This is plainly saying that a 25% XP penalty is a result of the 2002 change being discussed in the post, and that prior to the change, pets "always" took half XP. Not only does this say that the 50% penalty came before the 25% penalty - the use of "always" may imply that the 50% penalty existed for the entire history of Everquest prior to this post.
