Well you have to understand I would not be surprised at all if at least half the requests are really boxers or would lead down that road. Heck I think every husband/wife combo I meet in EQ since 1999 the husband played the wife healer or porter on the side a great deal more then she bothered to log on herself.

Yeah, but then you have to figure that there are those like me, my girlfriend and my two room mates. Finally been able to convince them to play eq because they don't have to worry bout a subscription fee. Me and one of my room mates are eq vets, my girlfriend and other room mate are new to the game, fun dynamic. We've been waiting for 8 days so far alternating who gets to play so we can stay close to each other in level, but I figure the wait right now is probably more due to the server roll-back and admins being busy with reimbursements than anything else. The only thing we can do is wait patiently. Hopefully you didn't sacrifice too much to convince the wifey to dedicate a whole weekend to Everquesting.
Just be respectful, once you get exempt ****DON'T**** multi-box no matter how tempting. Do not ruin the IP-exemptions for all of us who legitimately want to play with several of our REAL friends in the same home and share the Everquest experience with someone new. Boxing just mean players are empty husks on the server, taking up population numbers and exp/spawns/drops without contributing to the COMMUNITY. P1999 wants that server population number to be REAL, not 1/2 or worse of what it shows because one guy is boxing all of LGUK. Doesn't work on a throwback server (not enough zones), doesn't help the community(grouping with a boxed duo or trio sucks, isn't the point of the game to socialize and be part of a community?), it just does a lot more harm than good (not too mention the risk of ruining the chance for legitimate exemptions to be accepted).
To sum it up, wait, that's what I've been told, I'm still waiting too you are not in this boat alone. Until the exemption is placed and the block is lifted try to alternate with your wife or room mate or whatever and get yourself in a good position to group when you can.
