IP Exeption for my wife

[Redex]

I submitted an IP exemption for my wife August 20th. I submitted on the appropriate section in the appropriate forums area. I have a few views, but sill now response. How long does t take???! It's been 3 weeks and I am not even getting a "we're workin on it". :mad:

[jakerees]

I submitted an IP exemption last year and never got any response so.... never? Good luck...

[branamil]

Maybe you should ask for a refund

If youmake it to 2 months with no reaponse... just wait longer...

Does your wife enjoy classes that buff and teleport your character?

Just curious.

[Slathar]

Your "wife" needs an exemption? Does she happen to play a cleric, shaman, or enchanter?

[Mead]

op and his box going to be a good addition to the server

[fash]

been waiting on an exemption for my dog for almost 3 months now. He enjoys the cleric.

[Trelyrien]

People are really toxic about this which is a shame. My wife and I met in EQ 15 years ago. We stopped playing right after Velious so when I found p1999 you can imagine how stoked I was for a nostalgia hit. We installed on both of our computers and then found out that you can't log in two accounts at the same time. So yeah, I asked for an exemption too.

I guess that being new here puts me into a position where I can't truly understand where the hostility is coming from - but having such a small community overall (and especially in a game that relies heavily on grouping) I would think that people would be excited about two people coming in to adventure together.

In the meantime I get the game is free, so I will bide my time and hope for a response eventually.

[Swish]

There's just been a lot of people that abuse it, that's the only reason... plus RNF if you rant about anything the game seems to be watching everyone attacking the person ranting. Not sure why, but we go with it.

Nobody seems to get disciplined for mentioning a VPN/tethering your phone over a wireless connection (different IP), so I'll add to those who have said it in other threads...til the exemption goes through.

[Trelyrien]

I just went back and edited my petition and added this:

http://webpages.charter.net/trelyrien/

IF you click on that you'll see screenshots supporting my petition of having played and met my wife in 2002 (the pictures are all put there in 2002). Obviously there's no way to prove Shendeavorelae is really my wife but anyone certainly couldn't deny the fact that I whooped Nagafen's red butt and won a round of Test of Tactics. Anyway, it's just sad that so many people assume guilt and I wonder how many folks have just been turned off and away by that. But then again, I am quite sure you guys are not lying about an abundance of multi boxing.

I only post this because I feel like some folks should see proof that people aren't just trying to mess with the system!

In the meantime, I guess we may look into alternatives. O.o

There are four thousand threads started about the same shit. Instead of creating an entitled thread, op should have done a simple search. You can find out how the ip expemtions get approved, how effective it is to bump the thread, how long people have waited, etc.. Hope this helps.

[Trelyrien]

Eh, yeah I happened on this thread because of a search so I get that.

[Swish]

Bumping your petition puts it to the back apparently (not trolling)...hopefully the staff see this thread and remember that ^^

[wwoneo]

If you use a VPN / Proxy Server you can 2-box with your wife using that. I have spoken with devs and they said it isn't a problem. They may look more closely at your characters to make certain that you aren't playing them yourself though, so make sure that if you are both logged in that you can prove youre not 2-boxing immediately when asked.

[Redex]

You guys, I am a 29 year old married guy with two kids. I'm not trying to pour 1,000 hours with two computers to I can play two toons at once... I like playing in my free time, and my wife has never played, and said she would give it a shot. I don't understand why there is so much suspicion behind it all.

I did research it, and I did look it up, but I figured I could maybe get a Septermber 2017 response. Forgive me for trying to bring my wife into the game... Thanks for the support all.

You should ignore the trolls on these forums. Most of them probably don't even play on the server any longer. They just come here because they are sad and fat and have nothing else to do or read.

As I said, if you're tired of waiting for an exemption you can use a VPN service like HotSpotShield or something so you have different IP addresses. This will allow you to play on both of your computers in the same home.

[Jimjam]

Something to consider:

Make sure you include all relevant details for your IP exemption, as outlined here:

"IP Exemption: This is for requesting to be exempt from the limit of 1 connection per IP Address. You may request exemption if you have more than 1 real person playing from the same IP. When posting for this, please include the account names of every person that will be playing from the same IP, as well as the identities (real first names) / relations to those players, and please make sure that at least one character has been created under each account. Please verify the spelling of each account you specify. This format works best: Real first name - Relationship - Account Name"

If you fail to complete these basics then there is a good chance your petition will be overlooked. As I understand it there are a lot of petitions, so if you don't play ball you are just wasting a volunteers time.

Good luck and have fun RPing the wife duo!

The biggest thing i noticed about the p99 forums is that they are so incredibly toxic and yet the server in general is such the opposite.

The forums here really are not newbie friendly or friendly in general.

[KENAK]

Took over two months for me to get a response to my IP exception request, and instead of just doing it as I'd requested, they asked if it was still needed. When I didn't respond within a week, they closed the thread and told me to submit a new request. Instead of just doing it, as requested.

My advise is to check the thread every day for three months, because they'll ask you if you'd still like the exception rather than just do it.

[Troxx]

Facts:

-IP exemptions take forever to go through
-There are roommates/relatives who legitimately need them
-There are many who abuse it to box
-Those who box rage frequently on the forums once banned
-We see threads like this all the time
-Everyone, legitimately seeking or otherwise, has a cool story about their situation with their wife/brother/kid/roommate who now suddenly wants to play.
-there are easy and legitimate ways to play with those they live with (tethering/VPN) while waiting on exemption to be processed
-Making a thread on this board on this topic will get you flamed and trolled 99% of the time

[HippoNipple]

Just get a VPN and both play. If you use a VPN to 2box you will get banned. If you use an IP exemption to 2box you will get banned. There are a couple hundred whinny bitches on this server that will take you boxing as a personal attack on their quest to add meaning to their life through pixels on an 18 year old elf simulator.

If you are both playing it won't matter.

Yo Cylock, do you ever think it is weird the number of people in their 30s that still have room mates?

Or is this like some ironic humour where people refer to their significant other / piece of ass / baby momma as a room mate?

Or is room sharing still a common thing for the middle aged in America?

Please enlighten this ignorant foreigner :).

[Danth]

On one hand its definitely abnormal in most of the United States for a well-adjusted person in his 30's to have a roommate. People in that age range are normally settled down and married, and quite often homeowners with children. On the other hand, P1999 seems as though it has an unusually large proportion of folks who suffer from mental illness, or substance abuse problems, or who're having a generally difficult time with life. Therefore an unusual condition might be less uncommon within this specific little community.

It's the exception to have a wife, kids, and a home these days in my age cohort. Certainly not the norm.

So either your totally cool and normal or you are a delusional poor neckbeard – Search your heart for the truth…

[indiscriminate_hater]

30s roommates are pretty common in my area. I'm 31, live in a nice place with 32 yo guy roommate. We both have decent jobs and could easily afford separate places, but this way we can save quite a bit per month. It's also a fun living situation - it's nice having someone to crack a beer with after work, plus we get along well and enjoy hosting events at the place. Neither of us are in a hurry to settle down, so what's the point of paying high rent for the sake of living alone?

The only people that seem to have an issue with this are brainwashed women who rage at the thought of a single male being happy. Usually this rage takes the form of attempts to shame and label as immature, but unsurprisingly this comes from either unemployed early-marriage wives or single older girls who have fucked their way through their 20s and are shocked that no one wants to put a ring on their 29-yo finger.

Anyways, I digress - roommates can be great in your 30s.

Good people are hard to come by. 30's roommates are very hit and miss.

Lot of people start a crisis or begin to fall off due to grappling with mediocrity. Alternatively most low 30's are in transient work outside of the IT industry. If you have an IT roommate, its great. Otherwise, yikes.

Thanks for the IP exempt Cylock! I'm new to the game and it will be nice to play with him at home. We played together when I was at work (don't tell my work) but it will be nice to yell at him that I'm being attacked. I've died so so much already.

Oh, and I'm a necro. I did think that porting and healing sounded fun but he said being a lizard was cool. We have already met lots of nice people in Kunark (?).

Does 'Roommate' actually mean 'house mate'?

Like are you actually sharing a studio apartment with another adult, or sharing something more substantial like 2 bedroom apartment, city terrace or something?

Where I was young we didn't have many highrises...

[Jimjam]

[Lhancelot]

(Not Ranting or Flaming, just genuinely interested in cultural differences)

Usually it seems "roommate" means grown adult living in same household, splitting bills, sleeping in separate beds, sharing kitchen, bathroom, etc. Usually a roommate is taken to lessen the load on bills.

Personally I learned while in the military I prefered to NOT have a roommate, I understand some people enjoy the constant presence of others around them, I am not that way.

I can tend to get irked if someone is in my face all the time, and I need time alone to recharge my battery. People wear me down. :p

[Jimjam]

I see. I suggest referring to such an arrangement as 'housemate' rather than 'roommate' (as it is the house that is being shared, not the room).

To me a roommate sounds like something you might have at boarding school, in the first year of university or as a destitute living in squalor. (rant and flame now on :P)
