However, incentivising it with anything that directly affects a person's abilities concerning the game becomes a legal concern, as they aren't allowed to charge for the product. Said incentivising then looks a lot like payment; it certainly would to SOE lawyers.

For this reason, I'd imagine they're legally unable to do anything other than give you some sort of title or something on the board, but I'm not a lawyer whether or not there's a loophole or not they could get through.

I actually offered the suggestion of allowing a single boxed alt with this in mind. I was expecting to be quickly shot down under this exact pretense. The fact that I wasn't thus shot down in this manner I find both surprising and intriguing.
Pretty much spot on. 2-boxing is a virtually dead issue on all fronts however. Life support is still on, but it's kicking strokes like a ball on a 3rd grade play ground, and we're leaving it that way for now. The overall health of the server is our concern.
