arguing for 2-boxing on a server with ~20k accounts...well...and I still see "I'm new!" posts almost daily.
I agree, boxing is only really optimal imo when you don't have anyone to group with.

I never boxed on live but on EZ server by the time I was done I ran up to 11 toons at a time at some points. Mostly because to progress there you need to have a group or assistance from a player geared past the encounter. Since I didn't care to become a begger and population was lower I started adding toons to become self sufficient.

I would still group with other players because thats the best aspect of MMOs as far as I am concerned. However, some would not and some abused boxing to hold multiple camps at once.

I have no problem finding groups when I look for them on P99, and strongly believe boxing would be beneficial for a few and irritating/destructive for the majority.
