Stealth Nerf Grind

So with the latest patch Rkund was stealth nerfed from 20k xp to 1800xp.

I'm not complaining, I just don't see how an instanced dungeon disrupts other players like the Scorpion grind did.

My point of this thread though: ESO has some really creative players, if someone finds a new awesome grind spot. Instead of sharing it in the forums or in zone, can we come up with a way to let players know WITHOUT letting ZOS know?

Tricky I know but "LFG VR GRIND" will only keep getting stuff nerfed.
They read the Reddit forums too. So open to ideas.

    It was a really stupid decision to make a vet level need 10x the XP as a normal level.

    1. There are 14 vet levels, spanning more than double the content of 50 regular levels.
    2. The system is being phased out, so what, exactly, is the issue?

    Because it ain't gonna be phased out yet, for like atleast another month... if not more, and I want to level my ALT Main Duplicate to VR14....

    Cool. So play the game. I've never needed to grind on any of my characters, and they level just fine.

    Actually I will only grind, do dailies, or PvP with my ALT Main Duplicate (Kotaro-Atani), I am saving the quests for when the Champion System arrives on the live server..

    If that's true: So, we can't quest to reach vr 14 because we won't get credit for the xp if we're already at capped CP, grinding is yet again being nerfed, PVP is broke(and has nothing to do with *** deer to start with), it's like they want us all to unsub until after 1.6. Seriously, what a *** joke ZOS is.

    i still dont get why they nerf grind spots... should be one area for gold, one for exp, one for crafting materials of each kind... really if ppl wanna do this its up to them.

    there was a cave where you could grind a lot of skin fast but it was nerfed, sad ppl is more spread out when there is more of this content all over.

    They will. One shall not be able to grind stack of potions faster then one stack per month !

    Actualy i think that all those grind spots nerfs are preparation for CP system.
    They make sure you wont be able to grind CP's too fast and you would actualy need half of your life to get max CP's
