Awesome!
Sweet! Was out of town this weekend and will be psyched to get to enjoy double XP!
...I forgot what experience means.
The issues honestly didn't affect me too much. A few minutes Friday night, a few minutes Sunday night, that was it. But I am excited to hear another such weekend will becoming before too long, hopefully with less mapserver problems.
I wonder if this should be a the start of a trend, holding a Double XP weekend shortly after the release of a new issue. Once the bugs are sufficiently worked out, of course.

With CO and Aion coming out, i think it's a nice little incentive, espescially after giving out new powersets. Sounds yummy!

So next time it'll be 2XP in the AE, but with the ability to spawn mobs for a full 8 even if you're a duo/solo too? Could be epic

Good grief! I misread that as saying that Double XP would stay on until after I16 launched! >.<

Thanks, NC Soft, for closing my favorite game ever without warning and with plenty of life still left in it, and thus relieving me of the burden of EVER wanting to buy, try or even hear about another game from your company. Will my decision make a dent, or persuade them in anyway, shape or form? Nope, obviously not. Don't care. NC Soft is dead to me. ~ PsyFox
Nice!! had a blast this weekend

Awesome news 
I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
would this be why guardian and few other servers went down at 8am EDT today?
ps thx for giving it another shot after issue 16

Aye. I think Protector spent more time flashing LCTM messages than actually being up and playable all weekend, so this is greatly appreciated. |

Thankfully I didn't notice much of a problem while on Justice most of Saturday and on Freedom most of Sunday, but an awesome gesture to those affected players, nonetheless.

Infinity and Victory mostly
dUmb, etc.
lolz PvP anymore, Market PvP for fun and profit
Well, COOL!!! Since I was one that couldn't play pretty much all weekend, I'm looking forward to this.
Thank you!
I would like to ask the devs that, since everything else reward-wise was doubled, can we please have double-merit rewards also? Most of the weekend was very hard getting a tf together as almost EVERYONE was either pl-farming or AE'ing.
-Pogoman, Master of Kick-Fu
-Co-Leader and recruiting officer of the Virtue Honor Guard
- lvl 50 ma/sr scrapper
-Ace O' Diamonds lvl 50 fire/rad controller
and waaaay to many other alts to mention right now
Bah, if ya wants 2XP all the time, go fight yous some Freaks.
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"
*Arc #95278-Gathering the Four Winds -3 step arc; challenging - 5 Ratings/3 Stars (still working out the kinks)
*Arc #177826-Lights, Camera, Scream! - 3 step arc, camp horror; try out in 1st person POV - 35 Ratings/4 Stars

Thank you!
This is awesome!
Thanks!

Shoot on sight, please.
Not to be a downer, but what are the chances that they will have the map-server issues fixed by then?
Hm, this just made me giddy. Too bad most of my characters are already 50, maybe this can be my double inf weekend.
