Funny, they both already have. Classic and Hiroshima/Nagasaki, respectively.

Yeah limited due to only one country having nuclear weapons at the time.

Give it a try now and see what happens.

See my post above. I get it. There need to be limitations. I've suggested a couple.

At the time of those bombings, the United States was the only country to possess atomic weapons. Can't have a limited nuclear war when only one guy has the bomb. You can have a limited "I'm only gonna annihilate one or two of your cities" kinda limited nuclear war I guess, but you and I both know I was talking about nuclear exchanges, now don't we?

I've really tried to bring meat to my arguments...and I'm not seeing anything from the other side explaining how boxing would help the server. Not the individual player, not you, the server.

Convince me that it's a healthy thing for the server. Please. I'd like to box.

If adding more players = healthy, I could see it having that affect. Rogean can open a forum strictly for 2 boxing (i.e. needing permission) and then keep it at a certain level.

Theres an incentive to donate. X donation = 1 month of 2 boxing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I used to play on Stormhaven, which allowed people to 3 box. When I played, the most people I saw playing was around 130, which was probably 40-50 actual people. In Stormhaven's case, boxing was good since there weren't many people to play with as you leveled up. The downside was that no one grouped with each other pretty much until they hit raid content.

With 600 people playing here, I really don't see boxing as a good thing. People would just go play by themselves and unlike Stormhaven, enough people play here to make grouping pretty easy.

Right, which is like I said - there have to be limits. If you read me a few posts up, I understand that limitless boxing would be a decidedly bad thing for the server.

However, I think limited boxing could be good for the health of the server. It could provide a higher (albeit perceived) population during off-peak hours (if limited to off-peak hours); it could provide non-solo classes a different path to mid levels (if it were limited to lower-level accounts); or it could provide an incentive for donation (if limited to those who donate x).

I think we can all agree that limitless boxing is a bad thing. My point is to suggest that within certain limits, it wouldn't be detrimental to the health of the server, and may in fact be beneficial.

Which means you totally misunderstood the "limited nuclear warfare" reference.

The limits can be defined, but brother it wouldn't happen.
