Very unlikely it is related to SVM, every XP related field does not change anything related to XP required for level nor could deduct already attained XP from the profile.
Make a post on support zone with all required info (logs on the moment when issue happened, mods, etc), maybe someone can help you out.
Hi, I forgot to mention it resets my stash as well back to what it was. Does that make a difference?
I just tested it and the reason why it was doing it, -it seems-, is that each time I'd load the game, I'd load it through GVFE, load preset, then start the game. Loading the preset before starting the server and launcher seems to reset it back to when I last saved the preset, I think this is the case.
