I can see the argument on both sides for this. For those who multi-boxed on live, it was a great time filler when you couldn't get a group, or could only be on for an hour or so. Sure playing a solo class is an option, but if your favorite class is a horrible soloing class, then your pretty much out of luck. At some point I may come back and try out P99 again as I do love the nostalgic feel of the game, but for me part of my 'personal' nostalgia is to play my barbarian warrior and shaman as a team.
Do I think that the community and those developing the environment should change something as passionate as this topic to accommodate my own personal nostalgia? No. Do I hope it eventually happens? Sure. If the devs ever did decide to allow this to happen, i'm sure they could figure out a way to limit the concerns about two boxing (if code allowed). Rate of exp limitations (to block P'leveling), limitations on being logged in both accounts in certain areas when both accounts are not present. etc.. Again, all of this would be alot of works for the devs, and I can completely understand them wanting to keep things as it is now, why not? it is successful!
