OK, this is a person who can put me in at least serious.

I was previously getting that message for getting 700+ exp.

Now I am happy to get 400.

I am not trying to level, but if I waste my energy on an attack, and am often getting 300 something exp, that's a total waste!

Some level 30s, who do 0 to less than 100 damage to me are putting out better than people who hurt me. Again, not TRYING to level, but it's a waste of energy.

I'm not one of those people who whine about contests and how they don't like them for some reason or another. Comps are Zen's treats to us, yes I like some better than the other, but I appreciate each one! So no, I don't whine about every aspect of the game, very few in fact, but this exp thing is going to be an exception!

But the fact that I cannot get exp is getting OLD!

Yes, I have experimented, tried multiple people. And my result is, I'm happy to get (read happy with sarcasm) 400 for a level 30 something who doesn't hurt me, than barely over 400 for a level 40 something for someone who really hurts me. Yes, I've tried all the NPCs, no real difference.

This is getting old! I don't even wear my belt when I'm online, hoping that will up the exp a little, but it doesn't make up enough difference. So I'm a lil clueless here, as what I'm supposed to do...

I kinda see why some others quit, you get up there, and you're stuck. Everybody near me can pass me bc they can get double exp per attack, and I'm stuck with shit for exp, so what's the point from here on out?
