boxing on blue is much more damaging than boxing on red. blue already has a healthy pop, if not overpopulation. With the added bonus of no pvp, there's no threat to people boxing and they can effectively box cash camps AFK with impunity for hours on end, thus fucking tons of people who want to play the game. On red you have an empty barren wasteland where finding ANYONE in your level range to group with is a miracle. One of the most common themes on Red99 is "Someone want to do North wing? Any clerics? Any chanters? ANYONNNNNNE??????" and then everyone logs off. Boxing would allow groups to actually take off. Also, since there's PVP, people can't effectively monopolize camps because the threat of pvp allows people to take them by force. It also increases PVP because more people are playing since there's more things to do. It's a win-win-win-win.
