Sorry, Faetyl, but as you already know, we disagree on this point.
I do understand and sympathize with your viewpoint, even though I don't agree with it. But the fact is, the change *was* a fix.
The adventure and tradeskill exp percentages -- which in the default UI are only ever displayed in the tooltip when you mouse over the exp bar -- were always intended to be shown as WHOLE numbers. Thus, common sense and mathematical convention both dictate that they should be rounded. When you have, for example, 56.8% exp, it should display as 57%, not 56%. And that's how they now work.
(That is, by the way, how the display of guild exp has always worked.)
Obviously, it would be nice if the devs also made the unrounded numbers available for those who wish to use them in mods. (It goes without saying that many people *want* exp displays with tenths of a percent, and I would personally *love* to have the unrounded numbers available.) But they've shown no intention of doing so. And I find it absolutely ridiculous that so many modders have refused for NINE MONTHS now to fix exp bar mods which took advantage of Sony's original mistake, and which have been broken since that mistake was corrected.
