Does the Society Recruiter boon still give a total of +2 reputation with the Envoys' Alliance faction when the player slotting it is playing the scenario on the Slow Advancement track?
You gain half of the XP, gp, Downtime, Fame, and Reputation rewards earned in the adventure.

Prerequisites Envoys’ Alliance Tier 1
Cost 0 Fame
The Envoys’ Alliance celebrates your efforts to recruit new talent. If you bring a new player to a table—a player without a Pathfinder Society character or someone playing their first Pathfinder Society session—you earn 2 additional Fame and Reputation with the Envoys’ Alliance faction.
Special You can benefit from this boon only a number of times equal to your current Reputation Tier with the Envoys’ Alliance faction. Each time you fulfill the requirements of this boon, mark it on your Chronicle sheet along with the associated Reputation Tier. Have the GM sign beside this notation. The player you introduce to Pathfinder Society does not have to play at the same table as you (though being at the same table often improves their experience).
Italics mine. The part I emphasized is what leads me to think that it is *fair* for the boon to still give the +2 rep, because there is already a limit on how much it can be used, so someone could not abuse it by using it over and over on the slow track.
But that does not answer the question of RAW or of RAI in this case.

With Quests available for PF2, I'm surprised that Slow Advancement even exists. Then again, the latest news about the replacement of "Quests" for "Bounties" might mean we need that option.
I am still hoping that the Bounty format will expand beyond just tier 1 eventually. I think limiting it to one level is short-sighted. Time will tell.

I think the existence of quests demands the existence of slow track. If you want to always get exactly 12xp to level up (so none of your treasure Bundles or downtime are for a lower level) then without slow track you would have to play 4 quests every time you played 1.
I had not heard that bounties would only be for level 1. Where did they announce that?

I don’t know where I saw someone mention it, but I kind of like the idea that whoever it was had to run a character through all of the bounties to get to 2nd level (hoping, of course, that we get a bounty a month at least). Then field commission. So you could have a character that essentially starts as not being a member of the Pathfinder Society, then at level 2 joins up. It would take a while to get there, but it’s not like you’d be playing the bounties any faster than they are released anyway.
