I think XP gain should be cancelled and all FSP returned to players who bought it.

Why not? Its pertty much useless at my level now anyways. :?

That would be impossible. I'm assuming you mean to subtract the XP you got from XP gain back off your total experience to make up for getting a refund, since asking for a refund after getting so much help from XP gain would be totally ridiculous, right?

If getting 100,000 XP (that's just an arbitrary number) from XP gain helped you get, say, 20 levels back in levels 50-200, then taking that same amount of XP off now would only make you fall down one level, or half a level. That means you gained 19 levels for no cost whatsoever. Not only do you get 19 free levels, but you prevent anybody else that's at a low level from doing the same thing by getting rid of the upgrade altogether. That's just selfish.

It's posted all over the place that XP gain becomes useless at a higher level. Just because you don't need it now doesn't mean that nobody else should be able to buy it and you should get all your FSP back.

I must admit, I've bought a few XP gain factors but really think it's almost cheating. I have a common belief. Work for a living, don't buy it :idea:


Well in a capitalist society, like where I live, you have to work for your money.

Therefore buying something is working for it.

Nobody had yet figured out it was worthless at higher levels when a lot of us orignally bought it. And I dont ever see this changing, just like I dont ever see them getting rid of it. If they did get rid of it and give us a refund I would be mad if they took away the exp too, as would many. Its there choice to do away with it or not, why should I get pushed back because HCS done away with it and gave me a refund? You might think that is unfair but I dont. Again its all moot as HCS wont do away with the upgrade.

After all, we are warriors of FS, not a bunch of telephonists in a call center getting brownie points for being the, well, cheats 8)

but some of us learn while we sleep. That is the way I look at it. 8)

Ohhh, you are harsh!! I am getting 15% more XP gain from our guild relic, added to my already maxed XP upgrade..So i gain a level every week..how exactly is that bad? Especially when i didnt have to buy the upgrades but gradually earn them..

There are indeed some upgrades that are ripping people off if chosen, but no one FORCES you to buy them 8)

Personally I love my maxed out XP gain, takes the worry out of me taking a couple bounties and not completely getting rolled over by the Jones'. I like to call it my Bounty experience :D Its fine and it has been a core aspect of the game since day 1. Want to pick on something worthless : Pick on Gold Gain per hour.

My exp gain is slowly assisting my rise into my monthly top ten. I've not got it maxed out, but it's helping out nicely to the tune of ~12k exp a day, give or take a couple hundred. Considering that the spots in my top ten are determined by a difference of less than 20k in most cases, I LIKE MY EXP GAIN, SO BACK OFF. :evil:

/normal.

It give people more incentive to donate to the game, making HCS more money. Why get rid of it?

Did you know that there are likely over 2000 rouge black holes in our galaxy alone. Each of them can reach very high speeds, even in space terms, are each capable of destroying anything in their path, and are invisible. Well, goodnight!

I pretty much rely on the XP gain for when I'm bounty hunting.

I've used xp gain to skip levels, and I still get near a level between my hunt every 9 days, and when a hunt ends on a CA level I am very thankful for xp gain. No reason to get rid of it for me
