Double XP weekends / XP increases in general result from one of two conditions:
1. The publisher wants to sell more expansions at any cost to the game play
2. The game is failing and the publisher needs people to feel rewarded for continuing to play.
Whether out of greed (1) or desperation (2) these increases only serve to cheapen the content of the game and the time players have put into the game.
