I demand boxing to be allowed

[gedeost]

Global ooc/auction was removed because the population is high enough.

Therefore I demand that boxing will also be allowed, since the population clearly is high enough now.

It's classic so what's up people?

And don't give me any bs about "bla bla it enforces grouping" So did global ooc/auction and it was removed.

Boxing is just as classic as your clueless idea to remove communication.

I demand instant statisfaction.

[Cwall]

no

[Merllin]

I have a feeling he made this post to just get attention, because the majority of this server is strongly against boxing...:)

[gedeost]

No I made this post because boxing is classic.

So is this server, so where is the love?

It's either classic or its not. Clearly the first option has been preferred, so i want boxing to be allowed.

There is NO EXCUSES!

[Heebee]

"demand" HAHAHAHAHA - yeah that'll work.

[Gamkek]

Obvious troll is obvious

Camp stealing, ninja looting, and training are classic too. :rolleyes:

That wasn't allowed. Well camp stealing I don't know.

Boxing was.

See the difference?

A small amount of boxing was classic due to computer/$ restrictions. Most peoples cheap computers these days could play 3-4 EQ chars at once without struggling. See the difference?

Uhm no? I really don't.

The only reason boxing isn't allowed is to enforce social grouping, which is now no longer required because the population is high enough.

Kinda like how they had global chat to begin with because it was required, but now it isn't...

So what's the deal?

[nicemace]

i still think a limited amount of boxing should be allowed, very limited tho. it would enhance grouping and make it way better, specially for the offpeak people... but whatever people are stuck in their anti boxing ways.

no full group boxes n shit.. that's just bad.

[Taxi]

I troll too but i stick to R&F for that.

[gedeost]

Why do people think it's trolling just because you don't think boxing is a good idea?

It's still CLASSIC.

Ok so youre not trying to make a sarcastic troll post about people barking orders on devs and being entitled jerks, youre actually a huge douche like that?

Are you one of those rich kids that get everything they want by throwing a fit? "Mom, I HATE YOU. Buy me a new skateboard."

[Taxi]

Dual boxing = no need for ports, no need for chanters, no need for nothing, no groups.

If dual boxing was allowed right now, id make a chanter so i could druid/chanter buff any alt i make to be more efficiently leveled than any groups i can get out there. Actually i wouldnt do that, because it would be so boring and id quit like i quit the VZTZ server.

[Ethanblack]

Boxing ruins games.

[Uaellaen]

yeah boxing was "classic", and you know why? 13$ per account ... different mind set ... we are not here to make money, we are here to have fun ... if the admins think its required to restrict boxing to shape a community, i side with them ... even thou i would love to box my mag / cle at times too ... now i always have to bribe my brother to log in my cleric for the same effect ... OR ask some cleric friends that are online ... OMG it encourages social play :o who knew ...

I still see no valid reasons for why boxing isn't allowed when global chat for some mysterious reasons suddenly wasn't either.

Based on what? a poll spammed by level 50's with nothing else to spend their time on, won by like 51/49? that's only like half the server who didn't want it. Bless the USA

Now i always have to run around in dead empty zones, OMG it encourages antisocial play :o who knew

Because its not bad enough 1 necro solos 1/2 of lower guk, we want to see a shaman and monk do it too.

It's not bad enough you have to use the quadro amount of time selling a bone chip?

But that's classic baby, so let's go ALL the way?

If you don't like the way the server is run then I strongly, strongly recommend leaving and playing somewhere else as a possible solution. You're certainly not going to change the minds of the majority of players that are perfectly happy with the change. Embattled arguments in the forums aren't going to endear you to the devs, either, so it's a lose-lose. There's a whole list of EQEmu servers presented when you launch the game. Do yourself a favor; just select another one and click play. Problem solved.

First, it should be pointed out that this isn't a democracy.
I don't see you being forced to pay any subscription, or spend your valuable personal time squashing bugs, updating databases, maintaining servers and code. When you do any of those things you may become entitled to passionate rants on the p99 forums. Until then, probably not.

As has been stated over and over before, it was always planned that global OOC/Auction would be removed when server population was large enough. This isn't news. You even pointed out yourself that these global channels were removed because of increasing population so why are you harping on the poll? It seems like a red herring argument.

I love this server, but holy crap is the whining from a few belligerents ever getting old. :mad:

By a few, you mean like 49% of the server who didn't want it?

You're from America right? Yes i knew it.

"If you don't like the way we bomb your country then I strongly, strongly recommend leaving and living somewhere else as a possible solution"

Is that like your solution to everything?

I'm still curious as to why boxing isn't allowed besides the "i dont like it, so i just spout something to fit my agenda"

[hyzon]

As much as you're trying to get an answer. Why not answer why you just won't go play another server?

I'd personally ban you for being a twat, before I death touched you and made you try to waste more time in "empty zones" running back to your corpse.

But I also don't have half the patience that the Dev staff has for people.

[girth]

I'm still curious as to why boxing isn't allowed

My best guess is because its their fucking server and they can do whatever the fuck they want to do with it.

end of discussion until the owner of the project decides otherwise, if you cannot grasp that - then you have mental problems

I don't even need an if/then statement - i'm pretty positive - you have mental problems. All your posts made on this thread somehow infer that this change is because of the USA or americans? Also you act like the global ooc change came from no where. If you had been around you'd know that's the exact opposite, they wanted to disable them from the start but the population was so heavily against it since we had like 50-100 people on at peak hours.

[Senadin]

It isnt allowed because boxing doesnt foster group play.

Devs/Beta folks i believe, decided that group play is important to the gaming experience.


There you got your answers.

EDIT: gona try to find you the quote....... just so you cant argue anymore....

Usually americans doesn't care about anyone but themselves.

Population required global chat and no boxing.

Now it's the opposite so what's the deal?

You don't like it, is that all?

So things are only classic on this server if a GM likes it. Amazed.

But removing global communication foster group play?

The ONLY reason global chat is removed is so people can feel warm and fuzzy sitting in EC. Nothing else besides being "classic"

Why can't people feem warm and fuzzy boxing if that was classic to them, the population apparently allows it now?.

Back in 24. Enjoy morse coding until then

[Tseng]

I'm really struggling believing this isn't an elaborate troll job. Could someone actually think this is how one goes about trying to get their way? I can't think it is.

[Uaellaen]

i am not from the USA you mentaly disabled forum troll ... and my opinion stays the same, FEKK global OOC, it was a nuiseance that mostly benefited trolls like you, to start flame wars in game ... now that you can not go on and on yab yab yab yab yab yab about bullshit in OOC the game is boring to you? i strongly recommend a WoW subscription

if you wana box go to live or another server

i dont see a problem here...

[Omnimorph]

With boxing the 15 man raid claiming rule would become pointless.

This server's population is the highest of all emu servers, the reason for this is no boxing.

[Alleusion]

One person whines, stamps their foot and throws a temper tantrum my 2 year old would be proud of while simultaneously expecting the forum population to be impressed and jump to their side....hmmmm not buying it. While I'm personally in favor of global chat via chat channels that one can join and leave at will, I'm not in favor of multi-boxing. I personally feel that it ruins social game play the way that mercenaries did.

[eqdruid76]

I demand instant statisfaction.

That pretty much sums it up right there.

Unfortunately, we're not your parents. You're not going to get your way just because you throw a tantrum. You're going to have to depend on other players to enjoy the game, just like the rest of us. And if you can't do that, you should probably check out other private servers, where you can box as many accounts as you want, and monopolize all the camps in a zone to your heart's desire. Because that's what it's all about. You demand instant "statisfaction". You want ALL the loot. You want ALL the spawns. You want to benefit completely at the expense of everyone else. You are selfish and spoiled.

Unfortunately for you, this isn't a good place for selfish and spoiled people. You don't instantly get your way just because you whine about it. The devs have the luxury of history to know better.

This post isn't necessarily directed at the OP, because he's obviously a troll. It's directed at anyone with the same mindset as him, though.

OP, I have a question for you.

Did YOU 2box on live in 1999?

[Aeolwind]

No.

At the end of the day, we the staff have given our reasons more than once and they do not need to be repeated. Thread lock.
