I personally feel 1-42 should be increased, let the 50's who get off on killing the 42's keep their advantage over the people who weren't hardcore enough. That and I feel 45 is a rite of passage into planar, it should remain a bitch level. I don't see this as significant if it delays increasing the experience rate for new players though as this needs to be implemented as soon as possible. Even if it only brings back 20-30 players it's worth it.

Between work, school and real lives I know a good number of people who just couldn't keep up with their groups so they quit because like nirgon said, no one enjoys grinding solo for 15 /played days.

the 1-42 thing is completely for those who feel they should have the upper hand against these people leveling at a higher rate then they did. For those of you who feel it's unfair, get over it and do whats best for the population issue. Not everyone is on social security disability with nothing but time to play everquest.

People don't care what the exp rate is unless they are incredibly disinterested in the game anyways. The type of people you want to attract to the server will probably be more pissed off it it's faster than live in the first place.

This coming from a person who leveled a SK to 50 here already, so I had it the worst, and yes it was horrible. But that's Everquest and I expect nothing less, or else why the fuck are we playing it.
VZTZ has many things besides XP rate that made people not want to play on the server.

That just encourages cheating. Because if you're caught and banned you can just speed your way back in on a new character like people did on that shitbox vztz.

No accountability with fast experience, and no consequences. (Though there barely are now, hence why holobad and nihilum are even still here.)
People still got 50 on red and cheated. Got banned. Started again.

Won't change the mindset of a cheater.

Also, why not have a sliding scale xp bonus?

1-10 : 50%
11-20 : 40%
21-30 : 30%
31-40 : 20%
41-50 : 10%

If and When Kunark is ever released here it will simply mean whoever is already playing is locked in.. there will be NO new players once that mountain needs to be climbed. So while it may be fun for a couple weeks slowly the pop will dwindle to nothing as it already is doing. Finding people to level with is bad enough now.. it will be an impossible barrier once the lvl cap is increased. I found 1 or 2 people to group with but they outpaced me since I play a Hybrid which makes the problem 5x as bad.

The point that cheaters will level back up quick is horseshit, they will just cheat again and get banned..again. I have fun playing legit but really only check these forums to see if anything will ever be patched to make it worth while to log in everyday.

Another alternative would be to 10x exp 1-50 if Kunark ever comes out. For now it should be that way to at least 35. If this was the case the server would come alive with dozens of new players and since 35 will be reached easy the 35+ areas will be packed with people fighting each other. Its sad that 4 or 5 forum trolls who are so against this are the main ones posting about this. Id love to become a regular player on this server and join in on the end game pvp but fuck the grind. maybe its worse for me since I dont know any high level druids to help PL , but honestly 70% of any people my level are doing just that. getting PLed, so yea your the ones saying the exp is fine lol.

Get people pvping. I hover over the .exe every few hours and then choose other games only because of the BS grind. I dont get why the people already at 50 are against an increase, your just driving people away from the game meaning less targets to play against.

Of course they are, isn't it great... Welcome to a PVP server. Assholes killing other Assholes for being such Assholes.

- If you rage when some random druid snares you in the middle of kiting an npc or a bard comes and charms the named your killing and then turns and kills you with it then this is not the place for you. For those who can hang it's non stop fun, for you others theres blue, I hear you can even get your epic now! Theres a reason blue plat is worth 10:1 red plat, if you can even find someone interested.
