I hear that it’s occasionally best to look at things in English so here we go...
A stat with 0% bonus means you get 100% experience for it. If you're getting -50%, that means you're getting 50% experience. That means you're getting half experience, so if it takes someone else with 0% bonus an hour to fill it, it will take you two hours. Go from there.
If that doesn't make sense then I'm afraid it's a lost cause and will say no more....

Say I kill one enemy per minute worth 100 exp for 60 minutes with a +50% bonus.
60 * 100 * 1.5 = 9,000 exp
Now say I kill one enemy per minute worth 100 exp for 90 minutes with a 0% bonus.
90 * 100 = 9,000 exp

*I could have the definition of the bonus incorrect*
Kieria wether it was intentional or not you were defensive which means you may think I was trying to be offensive.. for that I’m sorry but I was only contributing my thoughts.

See how that ended up being 2/3's (60/90) and not half as you had thought when you worked it out in "english"?

Didn't mean to sound defensive, and it looks like you've basically got it now so it's all good

Yep true =)

I hope some one else can see where I was getting caught up in the logic here and it is all my own doing.

What would a -100% class bonus imply? I thought it would mean it takes me double the time to get the experience not that I would get zero experience. I was also mixing the correct and this one when I worked it out the first time )

-100% would be 0 exp gained.

We all make mistakes, so long as we learn from them we're doing well! hehe. I do understand your confusion initially, it can be kinda tricky unless, like you said, you know the way the bonuses work exactly. Seems we've all got it now though

Math is fun.

(Okay, so it *is* time to level that is desired to be even, not net XP gain. Sounds good.)
