Yup, Ice Barrier helped, though usually it means i have to give up a few seconds of dmg.
I'm curious about what you meant by this. I don't understand how Ice Barrier makes you give up a few seconds of damage... you have IB on you before you start the pull and you usually won't need to recast it mid fight.

I noticed if I stand too long on one spot, or if I don't attack the mob who casts the disease, I will get the poison-debuff
I'm not sure what actually triggers them to cast the debuff but yes, I noticed that if my pull is smooth and there are no brief moments of pause when I'm going through the AoE cycle (e.g. trying to target my blizz properly, or having to adjust to an add or a resisted Frost Nova) then I won't get the debuff cast on me.

I know changing when i play would fix that problem...but i have school so i cant stay up past 12am...
at like 10pm or so it got fairly empty, but that would just give me about 2 hrs to somehow manage to gain over 70% to level up
I was also lucky because I am on the west coast and my server is based on eastern time so when I start playing at around 8PM, people are already starting to go to sleep.
I'm not in school, but I usually go home for lunch (my office is 5mins drive from my apartment) so I usually squeezed in an hour's worth of grinding during mid day and that helps too.
I don't think there is any decent alternative to Rigger's Cove. If you can't adjust your play time, then you can just accept that it will take a bit longer to gain your levels. When it gets too crowded, you can also go to some group instances and pickup some gear and experience or do some quests and start building up your reputation. Or even PvP. You can also level a profession/craft. You'll be doing all of those things when you hit level 60 anyway so if you think about it, you're not really losing any time even though you'll get level 60 at a later date.
