"Huge Booster 450,000 XP": become lvl 60 with 2 clicks?

So, I just read the blog about the Charge Rewards and I really think that using this kind of program is a good way to deal with 3rd party sites... but, do you really think that putting an item that gives you half of the total experience to reach 60 is reasonable? With 2 of these boosters you reach 60 with 2 clicks.
Maybe I am just misinterpreting and these items are pools that have a different way to work, not just tomes of experience that gives you a concrete amount of experience.
Please, tell me I'm wrong.

levelling up is ridicolously easy allready!! With Mulhorand equip you can lvl from 1-60 within 2 freaking days (on your own)!!! That not sth i have seen in other games.
Also you will have fresh lvl 60 who are not able to handle their classes - the number of people who have no idea of their class will rise.
50% could be more reasonable....
Welcome to F2P and sub-fee MMOs!
I agree - levelling in NW is easier than any other MMO I have ever played. I guess some people would be willing to spend lots of money to shave a day or two of time . . .

Not everyone lives in their mother's basement with no job and nothing to do but play video games all day long so they can level up a character in two days. It's about the time it takes, not the ease. It's obviously intended for *ALTS* and those players who don't want to grind their way through all the content again. Is this not obvious?
And either way - why would it bother anyone that an XP Booster exists and some people will use it without affecting you? Smells like "greater-than-thou" attitude.
IMHO, stuff like boons should be account wide. I have 14 lvl 60s, I could only manage to get 4 of them through Sharandar and Dread Ring before saying forget it. And I only had the gumption to get 1 through IWD. It's really not lazy on my part, but burn out and that to me is the beginning of the end of a game for me. Also make professions on the gateway easier for us who "work" for our AD.
Why do people exeggerate all the time when they try to make a valid point... *sigh*
(I only live with my parents again due to my health issues. I am already planning my great escape! First step: Make it through physical therapy!)
But yeah, I use my XP Boosters on my pre-60 alts, so they level faster as I've been through it all many times before, all the way back to Alpha. XP Boosters are great for alt-o'holics like myself.

Well, 2 days was an exageration, but you can be max lvl in a week... isn't that extremelly fast and easy for a MMORPG?. I wonder what would you do if you go to a real one were you can lvl for 3 months xD.
Exaggeration begets exaggeration! LOL
Here's the main gist of my opinion on this subject, as it pertains to the OP:
My impression is (and I apologize if I am misinterpreting) the OP does't like (or at least frowns upon) the idea of such large XP Boosters even being available, and in questioning "why would anyone..." is used as a passive-aggressive insult. To which my reply is simply: there really ARE legitimate reasons for wanting such a way to level characters as rapidly as possible.
I don't see myself using any of them, but I also believe they are a good thing for those people who do want them.
I think they would really see some players buying boosters for those sharandar boons for sure.

Two questions: Why? And How does it affect you directly if someone else chooses to use this?
It affects me directly, (and I'd argue everyone for that matter), because it may very well result in a bunch of players who come to the game, don't know how to play their characters, which results in a bad experience for everyone they team with. Alternatively, they could have a very negative experience, stop playing, and spread their negative experience as a result of getting this "incorrect" gameplay experience.

So - you'd rather punish everyone else by not even having (allowing) such an ability as XP Boosters because you fear what is only a possibility, Nice. In that case the entire queue system should also be removed because the exact same possibility exists. All PvE Dungeons and Skirmishes and PvP should only be allowed with pre made parties; PUGa must be banned and made an impossibility.
Let's be consistent here.
Sure it is. But it's only a possibility. Why ban an option because of only a possibility - and one that has never happened yet, and when it does will be *so rare* as to never affect 99% of all players? Anyone making this argument is knee-jerk-reacting on a paranoid level. Plain and simple. I prefer to approach these things with logic rather than emotion.
Either way it does't matter. It's coming no matter what doomsday proclamation you are anyone else makes. And that's a good thing.
Ban? Nobody is talking ban -- just questioning the wisdom of introducing the option in the first place. Using inappropriately loaded words like "ban" is an overreaction to legitimate concern.
Criticizing the usage of the word "possibility" in the above comments is also a stretch, since their context was more of "probable" than "possible" (i.e. "real possibility"). And only affecting "1% of players"? Really? Where did you get that number? Then you claim that such concerns are only made by paranoid players? Ad-hominem much?
Then to characterize legitimate concerns of p2skp proliferation as "doomsday predictions"? Since when is hyperbole logical and not emotional?
Looking out for one's own interests is just fine, even professing a preference for "p2skip" options. However, I also find that perspective and empathy are great tools to employ in an online social community such as an MMORPG.
You people are funny.
But here's a prediction: those who feel the very existence of these XP Boosters are a bad idea will be among the many to proclaim the Zen Market price is too high. Because hypocrisy knows no bounds.
