So it seems there is a bit of a workaround to the XP Save/reset on the server. All you have to do is keep ET running on your computer and go spec and it appears that your XP will never reset. It doesn't seem fair. One of the main reasons why I love playing on this server (almost every night lately) is because it is a fair and balanced game (as long as I am not playing against Mcbain on Fuel Dump then I want to rage quit multiple times). Anyway - seriously - someone should fix this. I'm not naming names but if you login you will see what I am talking about. Thanks for your time and the GG's as always.

If the server is busy then it will auto boot players. Gives them like 10 minutes to join up or they do get kicked. So if we keep the server busy enough ....

The XP save lasts six hours , which I assume resets to back to 6 hours each time you join ... so as long as you connect periodically I would imagine your XP would not reset ever. Of course it would take a special kind of person to not even take six hours off for sleeping ... waking up to keep your saved XP alive.
I'm not sure this breaks any explicit server rule per se, though I suppose it could be considered a special circumstance not listed as it's kind of gaming the system and might create a slightly unfair advantage over other players in that you would always be 4 stars in the classes whereas normal people level each day in the usual fashion.
Guessing if we see somebody around with unusually high XP its probably our guy ... 'fixing' it is probably a trickier question/solution though.

As I said recently in private, I think saving your XP is a bit silly - it certainly won't make you a better player in the least. Not a rule, so that's that for me, but on another level, I wouldn't ruin Sugarbear, or Creep/Sarah's day for the likes of lesser, troll-like nubs Bottom-line for me: if you need that XP, have at it.

Sini - I do what I got to do to delay the inevitable, which is a loss for axis on Fuel Dump. Besides, most people have figured out arty and sniping puts an end to that dyno location.
Sometimes on the weekend, I just go spec for the night and pick up the next day. For people that say XP doesn't matter, for servers where most login and start at 0xp, it most certainly does. Faster reloads, faster weapon switch, etc. I play on a server that saves XP for 6 days and almost all players have maxed out skills...that is actually more fair and even amongst all players. You don't have to fight a lvl4 med as a lvl0 engie. We both have duals, we both have same speed weapon change, etc.
But, I still appreciate the ability to get levels every night here.

^ agreed, part of the fun (for me) is going through all the classes, time-permitting. Differences in class level between players gives the game a bit of diversity and randomness.

I still enjoy leveling up methodically (and the sound that accompanies the level up) Lvl 4 engy and Lvl 3 light weapons are the only 2 I care about really. But I agree, sometimes it's fun (time permitting) to cycle through the classes and lvl up in each one.

Sometimes it can also be rewarding to play Soldier MP40 while everyone yells at you to pick a class!

Most people here should be able to make lvl 4 covert ops as an axis in gold rush in less than 4.7 mins!

And i'd like to further add if you really want to get better you're better off starting at 0 every single time. So it seems to me. But I am just a humble king!
