Everquest (at least 'classic' everquest) is one of the only MMOs with the need of socializing being a core mechanic of the game, with most classes needing other classes to play; bind affinity, port, rez, invis, merchant for you in a kos zone, etc. There is always a time where you need another player to help you. Allowing boxing makes that mechanic obsolete. Whether or not it is a bad thing is debatable, but P99 has chosen to be on the no-box side of the debate, and this has to be true for everyone. Many other servers allow boxing if that's what you're looking for.
