Please Change the Two Boxing Rule

[Thetan]

That poll was a year ago and the server was relatively new back then I believe.

People constantly prove how clueless they are by the people they elect and adore. Michelle Bachman, Sarah Paylen, etc, if that doesn't prove how clueless lots of people are, I don't know what does.

I'm personally embarrassed by Michelle, she's from my state FFS. The woman constantly lies and misleads and yet she's constantly being brought onto shows to spew her crap.

Either way, I don't care. Remember, Necro. I'm going to be self sufficient when I can't find group and I don't really think the server needs it as there's plenty of what I assume are single boxers.

But who am I to force my feelings and desires on someone else.

I don't know why politics should even be brought into this - but the mere fact that someone chooses to vote for one of the people you mentioned doesn't "prove" they're clueless. It "proves" in your own mind that they're clueless because they don't see things how you see them. But regardless where you fall on any issue, it's not about people proving themselves clueless (because no objective proof of such exists), its about not being so arrogant as to assume that those who disagree with you are stupid.

Couldn't agree more. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't make them retarded. Believing that everyone that disagrees with you is a moron (just because they disagree with you) is the first step to tyranny and megalomania. Now, there is a scientific definition for 'moron' and 'idiot' based on people's rated IQ levels, but not even those are completely objective as there are many different IQ scales and tests.

If you're going to think someone is an idiot, do it for their lack of adherence to coherent fact or other things that are generally 'provable' by science.

Having people donate for an IP exemption could result in the loss of real players who use P99 as something they do with a loved one. Plenty of people 2-box now, they just aren't dumb enough to post questions about it on the forums.

and why is that? i wonder.

if it appeases the pro-boxing population any, it's been made clear that if the server needs changed, so would the rule.

breaking down P99's success to any single factor is ludicrous. but as i've said before, changing something so fundamental to p99 without it being a necessity is - in itself - ludicrous.

2-boxing is purely a convenience, and we're a far cry from it becoming a necessity. the subject might be due more critical examination were we hovering at 100 or so at peak population. and even back in those days, those of us that were here still found groups.
