Boxing hasn't been necessary for most of the server's lifespan. We tried to argue in favor for it before launch when a population above 100 was almost unthinkable, but it was refused back then because the decisionmakers felt it would be againt the classic spirit. Once it became clear that there were enough players to sustain a healthy gameplay environment without boxing, most stopped arguing for it. Now it's slowly starting to look like it would be a benefit for anyone leveling between 20 and 50, but it's only because this server has developed some weird anti-social atmosphere where almost everyone just solos, so while it might be logical to combat the mid-level group drought with boxing, I'm afraid the result would just be that everyone would take the opportunity to become self-sufficient and play the game in single-player mode. All it would take to make boxing obsolete is for the 200 necros and magicians to play with other people instead, but that's a lost cause.
