Boxing = everyone you fight is gonna have a full stack of buffs before they fight you.
I don't care for what it does to support classes and how it realllly fucks over people that don't have a "throw away" enchanter/cleric to buff themselves.
However, a brief period of boxing might see more people making it out of newbie zones.
I know Rogean and company don't like spending their time of "half measures" or "temporary solutions" but trying something like this for a month or two could be a good thing to increase pop. If it doesn't help the actual pop (other than #'s being higher due to boxes logged in?) kill it? Most computers couldn't handle boxing iirc and it was only around the time of the Velious client I saw it a bit more wide spread.
Having 400 pop would probably be better as 2 guilds could "zerg" (60 man raid force) which would be aight. Right now having 215 pop and 40-50 (honestly, a reasonable progression classic/velious raid force on the higher side) on any side is kinda bad :P.
I'd wait for all the resist/dispel fixes etc to make a "welcome back" + brief period of boxing (and maybe legacy items dropping again) work. Ain't gonna crusade 4 it, just a thought.

When's the last time you played, what's the last guild you've been in, what is the last mob you've contested, what is the last group you've been in.
All of these things matter, I know you think they don't - but you've never played here, but talk a lot.
That means this thread is NOT for you.
