Dev's read this and nerf the exp for all quests by 25% for everyone.
Just remove exp and make players have to run all content to be able to advance

Just do not take CR (level) when you can.. is it a VIP only thing? Is this now the next thing to nerf? BETTER F'ING NOT _ I will def cancel VIP if we cannot bank XP.

It works for all characters. You can bank up to one extra level. When you get to 1 exp from the 2nd level you stop getting exp. A few things like the monster manual will let you go over 2 levels, but that is all. This is why you can never take more than 2 levels in a row, and if you do take 2 in a row you find you are 5 bars away from getting a third level. This is why people in groups sometimes say, "I'm double capped." It means they can no longer bank extra experience and have to take a level.

Just to consolidate all answers into an easily read post (and add a couple of hints that were not explicitly mentioned):
People, when leveling up and playing on groups, generally run quests with a base level 2 levels lower than their current one. That's because when you run a quest on elite or reaper it gains two effective levels and this way you can still run them "at level" and without any xp penalty.
Also, as others mentioned, you do not need to take a level as soon as you get enough xp, and any extra xp will continue to be accrued until you have enough to get to the second next level - 1xp. This happens because you cannot accumulate 2 level ups at once (while doing regular leveling with regular xp). At level 10 you can get enough xp to reach level 12 - 1xp.
If you don't care about the extra xp after the hard cap and since there are enough quests at each level to keep leveling up at least until you reach the next one anyways, then there's literaly no need to "turn the xp gain off" - you already can effectively do that by just keeping running quests without leveling up.
So if you want to keep running all quests before you outlevel them on a difficulty scale (since xp won't be an issue here), one thing you can do is:
Don't take level 4 until you finish all base level 1 quests, then don't take level 5 until you finish all base level 2 quests, and so on, always keeping those 2 levels as a buffer, if running quests at elite or reaper.
If you are soloing, however, then you can of course adjust this buffer to any number you see fit. Nothing prevents you from choosing how much xp to bank or how many levels to take and whether to do the quests while under or overleveled. Just have in mind that you won't be able to run a quest on reaper difficulty if you're over 4 levels above it on heroic quests and 6 levels on epic ones.
Cheers,
NH

Bro, you do not have to take your level.
It's called banking your XP
My static group does this all the time to finish the story arch and to farm for Reaper XP.
You are making a mountain out of a little tiny ant hill.

Pushing this to page 5 for dramatic effect... You always choose when to level up in this game like ??? why are we punishing other people who actively support this game?The answer is very simple, if you have excess XP then you 100% choose when to level up. Will this go on for four more pages?
