Apprentice XP was in the game since beta. In order to be a "master", you
must have taught others what you know. In theory anyways. Teaching someone
Ranged Support I over and over to master Chef didn't make much sense, but
whatever.

I used to complain it was impossible to get AP because 'no one needs to
learn anything anymore'. =) Heh... now I'm maxxed out... 1240 AP and since
I'm not into the grind I have no use for it.

I had a bazillion combat XP a couple months ago and I though I'd take it
upon myself to 'sell' some of it away. I got mostly negatory responses.

'Why sell it, help some people out!' Geez man, just trying to make my way...

'I only have 15K is that enough.' *sigh*

I gave up after a day or two.
