Just remove leveling altogether if it's such a hindrance.

Wow, talk about totally missing the point. WTF?

I gave you my opinion on the subject in general. There is room for a variety of ways to get exp, just because this person dosent like this or that dosent mean someone else will like what the other person enjoys. You wont ever take the grind out of a MMO it will always be there in 1 form or another. More often than not when a thread like this is posted it is more about: its to easy or too hard or dare I say it players wanting stuff and not wanting to work for it.
