He's correct. Each additional level now provides an inherent effect of -1 damage received and +3 damage inflicted. Didn't you get the memo?

Nice find. You should probably have censored the poor chap's name, though.

If you don't believe me (or the wiki for that matter), then go outside the monastary with a level 20 elementalist or something and fire off some spells, then compare the damage you delt to the damage its supposed to deal. I just did 29 damage with a 11 damage lightning strike to a level 2 and 30 damage to a level 1. It works the same way against higher level mobs, you deal less damage against them.

Though armor ignoring damage will always be the same.

True, if you keep fire magic at 0 from level one... and fire off a flare, it still does slightly more damage, but this only applies to Casters i believe.

He's completely right, spell damage, attack damage, and critical hits all go up as you go up in levels, relative to your enemies, e.g. a warrior will do more damage to a level 10 enemy with 60 AL than a level 20 enemy with 60 AL, and a level 10 warrior will do less damage to a level 10 enemy than a level 20 warrior would do.

Ah, the OP posted a screenshot of himself and someone else chatting. Someone said that "level doesnt just give you more hp per level, it also directly affects damage" <- this guy is right by the way.
the OP essentially called him a noob, and told him he took a screenshot that was then going to be posted on the internet.

OP post's SS here, we /point and /laugh at him.
