Could it be positive if someone only has 1 character?

The question would be, how could I add something like this so that if I have 1 character, he would get 40-100% xp to collect for development in his profession and for other things. And if you make a 2nd or 3rd character, you lose these buffs. So maybe it wouldn't be necessary to make 2nd characters even if someone doesn't want to. Just to keep up with the others.

The OP is a bit weird because it seems like it's asking for built-in bonuses for playing one specific playstyle.
Should Casuals get bonuses because they are at a "disadvantage"?
Should soloers get bonuses because they are at a "disadvantage"?
Should Artisans get bonuses that give 40-100% xp because they are so focused on Professions they don't have time to invest in leveling Adventurer - which means they will fall behind in the race to keep up with Adventurer leveling?

There is one advantage that I can think of and it is not nearly big enough to justify such a change in design and that is real reputation. Say XYZ has been running around the server cheating people out of their resources, always avoiding corruption but definitely ruinning other peoples fun in the pursuit of personal gains. At some point only seeing the name will make people cautious, people would refuse to interact with XYZ at all. At that point the player could in theory transfer all transferable goods to a new character and start the process all over again. This would be prevented by just having one character, but the limitation of not having an alt for your guild raids to fill slots according to need, trying out other archetypes or just simply look how other servers world are developing seems too much of a loss than one would gain for making such limitations.

In RPGs - reputations should be built by characters; not players.
Pretty sure GMs can track truly problematic players if necessary.

Seeing how A2 is supposed to gather huge amounts of data on player behaviors this is almost certainly the case.
