What kind of penalty to exp does that message carry?

That is my estimate as well. Hence why I keep on grinding xp in good areas past "you need to...."

I would like to take this opportunity to once again whine about this code.

Yes, it's great to reward players who get out and explore new areas - but why should I be forced to follow that playstyle? If I want to sit and grind in an area I should be allowed to.

I hate being forced to a playstyle in a game. This is supposed to be fun, not a chore isn't it?

The general consensus was that grinding = chore. Chores are by definition not desirable. This system encourages you to not grind. You can still grind if you want to, but it's not as profitable.

I figured out I still get exp, despite having this message. I just wanted to get an idea of how productive my time was being spent.

Thanks folks.

Okay, but why am I penalized for grinding again? Because other people think it's a chore, or because I think it's a chore? Nobody is forcing them to grind with this code - they can still get their XP bonus. But I take a penalty.

That's not fair.

The logic here is flawed. I am being penalized because other people don't like to grind. But I do.

I'm just going to take your post out of context, three.

If you like to grind, I would like you to grind a GM Gnome shaman that is built to be a voodoo cannon. Kthx.
