I've been answering this since beta. The short answer is no.

Before the server launched, I stated if there weren't enough individual players, then boxing would be considered.

Of the personal 'thank yous' I receive, the majority of them are thanking us for providing a place where boxing isn't allowed.

The only way it will be considered in the future is if there is a lack of players.

Much respect to ya nilbog. That said, I don't feel grateful for the prevention of boxing. Because I don't feel my EQ career was ever adversely affected by other players' boxing. However, I can still remember specific events where a powerleveled character was hogging mobs in particular zones; so it DID affect my game.

Think about it; two or three boxers will not even come close to consuming as many mobs as a PL'd character will. And considering lack of hunting spots is becoming a problem on this server, you might want to reconsider your priorities.

I don't like twinking either. If level 1s were meant to have an FBSS, they would drop off decaying skeletons.

I find it a ton of fun to give a level 1 a crapton of hp gear and a good weapon... =D

Boxing. Isnt that where two players go into a pvp area and turn on autoattack with no weapons in their hands? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You just came up with a reason boxing sucks (takes more mobs out of circulation for the people not boxing) and then found something that is possibly worse (twinks, which in my opinion are not as bad, and after level 12 will most likely be grouping with you anyways).

Just because you can find something else that sucks more than boxing, and only in one situation at that, doesn't mean shit.
