I know you're probably joking but for the sake of argument...
That would be even worse, I'd want the accomplishment of doing it myself. Besides to pay the ridiculous amounts some people do to basically a deed to electronic gibberish, it makes no sense.

I tend to agree, though I could see why someone would spend a few bucks to get some in game cash to save themselves the time of having to farm easy kills to get $$.
As for the curve, I'm level 15 already and I haven't been playing all that much. The game also lends itself to casual players since the longer you stay offline, the more "rested" you become. In a rested state, you get 200% experience for every kill. Stay offline for a few days, and next time you log in you'll be able to gain half your next level twice as fast!
Plus a significant portion of experience comes from quests rather than just killing. For example at level 15 killing a level 14 mob give me 80-90 exp. I need like 13,000 to get the next level. That's 144 kills. Or one quest can give me 900 exp. And the quests are pretty cool, lots of exploring involved. Some are annoying, requiring random drops, but most are pretty fun.
I quit EQ too because of the time requirement, but so far WoW isn't nearly as cruel.
