Exchanging Gold or Loompoint for Experience

Hello Folks,
a few weeks ago i started to level and finally stopped to retire, and i noticed shit this takes some time...
So i came to the thought what would be if players could trade their gold and Loompoints (maybe even loomed Items, they cant get ride off) for Experience, it would lower the Gold that is in-game already and would make leveling faster (for new and old players, even for players that grind on DTV)
It's just some idea, lemme know what you think below!

I mislike this idea alot.
Experience is one of the few things you cannot buy in cRPG. It is similar in most other popular games.
"The Grind" is an important aspect of the game. It makes people proud to own one of the highest leveled chars in this game as you can see in the "Tavern" rider.
As soon as xp becomes a tradable subject it will loose its worth rapidly. And I can already see all the people write "whats your lvl? -36, why? -you lil rich kid!!

Nah that`s  not a good idea. As Chris already mentioned "The Grind" is an important aspect of the game and it`s your decision if you go for high lvl or retire many times. ( you got 100 +3 Items, well I think thats fair enough).

it`s your decision if you go for high lvl or retire many times.

While I'm mostly meming as I don't quite care, it isn't even a player's decision anymore. I decided to grind for a high level, forgoing plenty of retirement opportunities, in order to get a high level build. Then they changed the leveling system to "balance (read: remove) high levels." Now I'm stuck at level 34 with enough useless xp to have retired approximately 50 times, and still be level 34. But did they balance (read: remove) the surplus of looms people have? Nope.

Oh, now I understand why people keep making 'balance ranged' threads even when they already do no damage. I missed the true meaning of balance.

Precisely.
