Free experience is being given out? Where do I sign up?

My understanding is that they used this "contest" to set the upper range of a curve on which the judge the difference between a casual player and the hardcore player. Lest you forget, if you ever even knew, that XXX was not created to allow players to earn more experience, especially power hunting players. It was created to allow casual players to keep up with power hunters. Period.

No one is getting any experience for free. You still have to hunt, heal, pick boxes. Experience modifiers everyone already gets are being adjusted on a curve now instead of on a straight scale.

If you're a person who has problems with reading comprehension and you read the release of this new way of determining the "experience gap" and thought that you were going to win a prize for hunting your ass off, you're an idiot. No such offer was made, expecting one reeks of entitlement.

Simutronics simply provided a leaderboard and a list to prey upon the innate need many humans have to see their name in lights. It works on my children, they get their jammies on much quicker when I tell them it is contest. Congratulations, you were manipulated, but you're an adult so you should have recognized that.

In exchange for hunting your ass off you gained a shit ton of experience. This is your reward. If you regret doing so you have only yourself to blame, if you think to pout and threaten to try to get your way and say that fine, next time you won't hunt at all and won't even try. Well okay, enjoy your little tantrum, no one cares.
