For reference, this is the kind of attitude I was wondering if Kirstie was trying to encourage.

Nope, not at all. Sometimes it's just nice to have a little push or incentive to get over a plateau or something that just feels like a plateau. I don't want to rush people through the game and there are a couple things we've done to mitigate this.

A lot of times I get people immediately thinking 'bonus xp' periods are 'double xp' periods (both players I talk with and people here on the dev team). But usually the bonus xp percentage rate is quite low compared to double xp. I also tend to keep the periods rather small and intermittent so they aren't something to rely on like vitality bonus.

Usually someone brings this up, and I believe this is in the thread already, but everyone can toggle the bonus xp off with a /toggle command. I'm definitely not trying to force this on anyone who doesn't like it or rush people through content.

I would love to meet these fucking retards who feel they're being rushed through content this way.
