SNIP...
Fantastic post. Seriously. Probably one of the best I've ever read on a forum.

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.

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

Yeah, we should also go up to the current EQ live expansion because apparently their game isn't broken and it's already fixed. They don't have problems with their interface and xp penalties...

So how about you go fucking play with them instead?

Fail. Let me guess... You are one of the selfish pricks who think they will benefit from this.

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 someone getting banned for insulting developers.

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