That.

Plus anyone on this forum complaining about being over-leveled for quests has that problem anyway. It's impossible to not over-level quests as a subscriber, unless you skip a lot of them.

My problem with those people is that the only actual problem they have articulated with 2xp (because "I just don't want it" isn't a real problem) can be solved by themselves with zero effort, zero expense, and seconds of time.

Unless you care to articulate a real problem with double experience that I haven't heard yet and requires considerable effort or (ingame) expense to resolve?
You just dont get it do you ? for the sake of it i will give you 2 hands on examples of when it actually becomes a problem for someone.
1. Overleveled the content to the part of 0 xp, one can either grind out the quests or just head on to next planet after class
- the first of those two options isnt something i would call meaningful, the second option is good until the part where one no longer can afford to train the skills due to the fact that class quests dont add up to training costs.
2. I wanna max out on warzone coms before hitting 55 on a toon so i can grab the pvp gear as i hit 55, wich means i more or less need to not log it during double xp as i need the coms more than the xp (i still gonna hit 55 sooner or later)

So tell me this isnt an issue ?
I don't mind double XP at all, but there are times where an opt out would be benefical for someone, or rather the double XP will be a problem.

Try again.

I was talking about planetary quests and role-playing through the story as examples of the kind of behavior I was talking about, not whether it relates to 2xp or not. In fact, it's the people OPPOSED to an opt-out that bring up those things, if anything.

Your turn to try again.

There's never any harm in asking. EVER! However, there are people on these forums who assume that asking for something means we automatically hate the game and should quit...which is quite stupid actually, because only those who care would bother to ask.

Again... how does 2xp prevent you from doing the planetary quests or role-playing through them?

Why? If you're doing the quest for the experience, then 2xp is a benefit. If you're doing the quest for the story, then 2xp isn't a factor because it doesn't change the story.

[quote], the second option is good until the part where one no longer can afford to train the skills due to the fact that class quests dont add up to training costs.[quote]

Ah, there's a potentially real one. Guess I'll need to ask someone to verify whether or not this is true since I never encounter this issue.

Two real ones that can't be solved without logging out. Nicely done.

Nice deflection there. You still haven't answered the question of why you also aren't berating the people who agree with you that "the only actual problem they have articulated without 2xp (because "I just want it" isn't a real problem) can also be solved by themselves with zero effort, zero expense, and seconds of time." Everyone else explained very well the problems with the rest of your post.

Wasn't the point, sorry. Just keep on deflecting when your points are proven wrong, that'll sure convince people!

You might read a post or two up. One poster responded to the question with a legitimate, real problem. And I acknowledged it.

Where's yours?

Still no answer, I see. Guess you're conceding the point that you're a hypocrite and thus have no credibility.
