Is that 25% XP just for people returning too the game or will all paying customers benefit from that?

If anyone new coming back does this, they will not be welcomed by me. (Unless they show me how or can drag me in there with them)

EDIT: Oh yeah, thanks for the bonus XP. I wasn't trying to imply I'm not grateful. I just couldn't pass up the reference to the Abbot, sorry.

Thanks for no bonus loot (Am I really saying that?) as I hate it when everyone stops running quests so they don't have a ransack counter of any of he chests. Now I can get my secondary character up a bit more.

It doesn't say all players it specifically says "previous players". Unless they just mis-wrote it.

I have said it too many times......

XP bonuses in game (especially for special events) are a great thing. Loot bonuses, not so good.
