I remembered something funny the other day. Back in the day, you couldn't even alt tab out of EQ. If you did, it crashed the client. There was a letter that someone posted on the Sony boards about how "They couldn't access all the wonderful Microsoft applications while playing EverQuest" hahahah

That is why us original boxers had two computers. Anyways I am gonna give my two cents.
I have played on many live and eqemu servers, and although I have always preferred the group dynamic (not to mention only focusing on one character) to me, the ability to multi box has always been a necessity because I, like many others, am totally impatient.
Here is a scenario from last week:
I logged on to project 1999 for 3 consecutive days, and in all 3 of those days I was unable to find a group. I sat around for hours talking to random people, and people on my friends list and still no group. I then finally got a bite on the third day, I walked for about half an hour to get to the group "/tell Drakarr Sorry they filled your spot" WTF seriously. This is all too common, I get a group, replaced on the way by someones "friend".
I have yet to log back onto Project 1999 even though I love everquest and
LOVE Project1999.
To be able to pull out a healer for me is seems a necessity, and although I have every bit of knowledge required to get away with multi boxing without anyone even realizing it, I refuse to because of my own personal moral standards. Nilbog, Rogean and everyone else put so much time and effort into this project, following the rules is simply a sign of respect, not following them is well, obviously disrespect.
All that aside, the truth is, people multibox on Project 1999. They are rarely ever caught as nobody knows what to look for, or they have incredibly well designed bot macros, either way... people multibox on Project 1999.
I feel for this reason alone 2 Boxing should be allowed, simply because it is going to happen anyways I just feel it would be better to know who is boxing, than to have all these witch hunts. This is my opinion, and you may not agree with it, if you don't agree plz keep it to yourself because I don't care.
Edit: PS. The reason I want to be able to 2box is so I can PL my own characters lol, way selfish but I should at least be honest.
