I'm actually really bummer about this punishment and here's why:
Myself and 3 of my closest friends of the past 15 years started playing Live together in Jr. High. It's one of the things that led us to being to close in following years. Needless to say, when we heard about P1999 a couple weeks ago, we were immediately hooked. We all live in different parts of CA and this has really brought us together.
A week ago or so, one of my friends was visiting the other, and in a misguided attempt to LAN party together, they attempted to log in fro the same network. At the time, it never occurred to them to petition for IP exemption. Now one of my friends is banned for life and our quartet is down to a trio, just for trying to play together.
NONE of us are multi-boxers, we just like to play together as we have with so many other mmo's over the years (DAoC, WoW, Warhammer, Rift, etc...). We've played plenty of others, but we came to P1999 for a reason; they don't make 'um like this anymore.
Looks like its Diablo 3 for us. This was fun for a few weeks. Thanks for the nostalgia.
