If boxing is allowed even 2.

The server is done. Why would they do this?

I personally can understand why people don't want boxing, grouping is a PITA, thats fine. Boxing doesn't discourage grouping, boxing makes groups easier to form imo. I do however think this won't be positive until the release of kunark when the world becomes much much bigger so people will be spread out more. With the smaller amount of people the harder it will be overall to get groups. If i was boxing a tank and or a healer, and a dps was LFG near me, I'd snatch them up in a sec because killing faster would = more xp for me.

Efficiency is ALL that matters when leveling. The only real people it would affect negatively IMO is solo'ers. I've grouped up a few times with other necros, druids etc etc so we could kill more efficiently, but with the ability to two box, that would probably never happen, but hey, I can solo for better xp than 90 % of the people that play so who cares?

People are against boxing mostly because they themselves can't do it. Saying that boxing is anti-classic is an outright lie, everyone boxed back then, I played my friends toon while he was at school along side mine while leveling in live, both in and out of groups. What boxing will do, effectively double the population *albeit not truely doubling it* it will also attract alot of the people who didn't come to play here who play weird hours. I usually play in the middle of the night, so I couldn't pick a group class, I was stuck picking a necro, because I needed the ability to solo because no one groups ta that hour of night and if they did they were not my level. Now that I'm 50 and I've started raiding I've noticed that alot of the solo classes are more flakey than any of the other classes simply put because alot of them got honed into their classes because of the time they play and they just didn't enjoy game play.

I disagree with the masses on this one, I do think boxing *2 toons* should be enabled for kunark, the world will become so much bigger that in order to keep enough people to make groups it will almost need to happen. I've had alot of friends who refused to come to this server simply put because they couldn't box, and they didn't want to sit LFG all the time because like one of the above posters said, they only had 30 minutes, and they didn't want to play a solo class.

Classic didn't restrict this, so I will take the stance of a lot of the other whiners on this server, ZOMG YOU COULD BOX IN CLASSIC THIS ISNT CLASSIC ENUF.

Just my 2cp,
