I meant the afk-portion of the post. I think there should be a subset of rules for people with ip exemptions because what yall seem to call common sense the average person just takes as playing as normal. Only somebody who is desperately trying not to get caught (because they're offending) would try to think out exactly the things that would make them appear to be two-boxing. Otherwise they'd play as normal and you run into situations such as two guys kill together for hours then one dude says "I'm gonna get us some beer, mind watching my char while I run out.", "sure". Then the dude that stays continues to kill to get exp for him and his friend because the friend is getting beer for them both. Nowhere does it say this is sort of situation is illegal and I really don't think it's common sense that these guys would consider this as two-boxing.

I'm sure there is a pretty simple list of situations such as this that a GM can type up and send to every person requesting an IP exemption so people are well-informed of the type of behaviors that will certainty create problems. I don't believe this list is problematic or "informing the boxer" of what the GMs will look for because the boxer isn't the average player - he's so bent on not getting caught he'll think out every possible scenario and avoid it. In contrast, I don't believe the average player will think that far because if they're not boxing they feel they don't need to worry.

On a final note, if you want to sniff out boxers go to EC. The amount of afk sell-bots there are are ridiculous.
