Also on classic, the classes played were more evened out.
Look at all the mages and necros on this server. Most of the people that have the solo mentality want to play a mage or a necro so they can camp things. Everywhere I go I see mages and necros, in groups, out of group, in raids(especially mages).
I know you all know what im talking about.
If boxing were allowed (with restrictions) I guarantee you wouldnt just see a bunch of mages running around.
Also, just because people want to box here or there, it doesn't mean they do it every waking moment they are in EQ. I hated boxing in raids/groups because I wanted to focus on my character and my group. I didn't like boxing compared to grouping/raiding. I actually enjoy to socialize when I play multiplayer games. I know most of you that have boxed can agree with me here, too.
Imagine the server with no one on it but yourself; Would you box and play on it if no one was ever going to be online?
