Actually have done exactly this at mud.phoenixmud.org 4000. don't let them kill
less then 20 mobs per level, not many for a newbie, but quite a lot for the
higher ups.. (maybe 30?)
I also set the cap to be the cap for level 15 if you are level 15 and then it
starts increasing, to help the newbies get to the fun part.

I have never done anything like this, but if you get it working I would
love to see it. I have seen a mud where someone must "train" a level
with xp as you mentioned, its a SMAUG based one - ancients.tander.com
5000. They do this so they can work out multi classing, but your
idea is interesting..
