Does any server besides P99 prevent boxing?
It feels like all the servers which might someday have a chance of seeing P99-level population numbers, like 2002 and TAKP, screw themselves over by allowing boxing. They tell themselves "we have a low population, so we need boxing", but the reality is their population will always remain low because of that decision.
It seems to me that the only way (or at least the only proven way) to succeed is to do what P99 does and prevent boxing from day one. And the only other successful EQ servers (live EQ) did something similar: while they didn't ban boxing, they at least discouraged it by charging for accounts.
But for some odd reason it seems like every server except P99 completely fails to understand that, and I have yet to hear about any other that has a one-box policy. What gives?
