I started doing it not so long ago, and it helps me alot

Its very depressing seeing how slowly that thing moves.

If you complain that grinding / looking at the exp bar, then yall statistically have a very high chance of resorting to botting.

No, incorrect...you make the assumption that I play this game to be competitive.

As far as how I choose to treat my monitor...its my monitor.

I cover it up sometimes with the system bar. I especially cover it up when I grind those questless lvls and put on music.

I tried this last night and found it very liberating, much distraction gone.
Right up there with covering the 'check engine' light with electrical tape.

I started this recently, too. Making a blader so it's going slow rofl.

music while grinding, pause after an hour (one hour and a half mostly) of grinding.

doing a long grind run of 3 hours or more, always make sure to do some exercises in between some weight lifting or just run for 30 minutes makes grinding practically easy.

if you grind long without changing to do something more energizing then you will start to stress out and cover your exp to not know were you are
i actually love watching it so i know when to quit or keep on grinding

most annoying moments are when you hit the 90% bar

Hmm, I am fairly active as well, and don't think I could handle playing and not being able to see the exp/sp. When I play, I start working out math problems in my head as to how many more kills it will be to make the next level, and start to count them down like the quests. That seems to be distracting enough. >.>

well it doesn't "help", all it does in reality is just make it more of a surprise when you move it and see your progress, I usually check it once an hour. It's like doing something to make time pass by faster, its all relative. But sure try it, I use the option window, it covers it perfectly.

I may look at it, I may not. Either way I really don't care about it enough to cover it up. Just knowing I have more xp after killing this monster than I had before is enough for me.
