There are nerfs I am for. There are nerfs I am against.

I do not have bias, because I do not play on the server. My decisions are not self serving. I am an ass. I don't care.

I did not nerf exp. I did not try to make it so noone wants to group with hybrids. The difference now, compared to classic, was in classic, people did not know they were getting screwed by grouping a hybrid. Now they do, which is not fair in my opinion. That puts certain classes at a bigger disadvantage. But I will make sure it is not totally out of balance with how classic was.

The classes that are at a disadvantage now, RNG, PAL, SK, for example ... will get more of my attention. So hopefully I can get things working better for those classes, so if they do want to solo, they can do it better.

I spend more time fixing bugs, or exploits, than making improvements lately.

This is my entertainment. Programming on the code, making it better, one line at a time.

This is just another example of the devs having their heads up their asses. Instead of focusing on fixing what is broken they focus on breaking what was fixed. It's just dumb to remove features like interface improvements and adding xp penalties. They should focus on game content that is where the classic experience is.
This is just another example of someone getting banned for insulting developers.

Maybe you should start submitting some fixes for what is broken. Fucking jackass.

A lot of things in EQ are inconvenient. Thats the beauty of EQ.

Besides, achieving level 50 as a troll sk now is a huge accomplishment.

In the end, all it means is that you grouped with some friends for an extra day or two. If you plan on playing this char for years to come, it essentiallymeans nothing in the grand scheme of things.

while this is true, what about those lvl50 sk-trolls that leveled before this change with their guises baged?

It's a hybrid class. If you want to feel special then you get a penalty.

I understand why the original intentions of Sony for the exp penalty to be shared by the whole group. Friends who group together level at the same time. Makes sense to me if you play with the same people every time you play. How often does that happen? Some people do it. I play with my brother almost every time I play. Almost. And I don't play as often as he does, so he isn't playing with me every time he plays.

If this -feature- is intended to make friends who group all the time level at the same time, who really benefits? Seriously, how many people group with the same people every time? Maybe a poll could give us some insight in to this (I understand how unreliable the polls are, but could illuminate if this is really a relevant fix or not)
