The x10 XP mod could well be dropped, as you have explained it is a crutchthat would not be needed. There are at best a few ppl on the server, none of whom would take the pain to go through leveling with a character they won't really use, no matter the XP bonus.
I doubt that at this point in development there are any significant structural changes occurring to the database. I am also sure the official database is a subset of the development database, so just importing the values from official to dev should not be that big an issue. There would be a one time effort in writing a script that exports and imports data, afterwards that script would maybe need to be adjusted to include a new value here and there.

But those are implementation details, i do not want to argue about export scripts, only the guys from ngd know the table structure. I would even be willing to write that script if someone asked me to.

I see that at max there are a handful players on the dev server, a few more when the official is down. So the server is atm pretty much useless.
Once again: Having the official character on the dev server as well would be an incentive for ppl to go there from time to time, check out new features and write bug reports. There would be real load on the new features when Ra is down, not just like 60 ppl but 300. All sides win. So please, do not be irritated by my first ass-backwards attempt to explain what i want, i know what i am talking about. Take it at least into serious consideration. Thats all i ask for. Thanks for that and all (further) input.
