Boxing

[fabric9]

It's not like most boxers would bring their boxes into the groups and take up slots for others. I know I rarely played more than one character when grouped, but it was nice to be able to 2, 3 or even 4box as necessary when there simply weren't people you knew around to play with. I dislike playing with people I don't know (or that my friends don't know), but maybe I'm weird that way.

It's a different game though. Later on in EQ, the game got alot more complex, and bringing your box to some highend one-group content just wasn't that viable. 3boxing was pretty much out of the question. You had to be insanely good to manage slowing, cc'ing, tanking and healing all at once. At this point, it's pretty much autoattack and wait. And that's pretty boring, no offense.

I have no doubt there are lots of people that have thought the same as me and hence why you have a high population of players that don't like boxing on the server. A poll taken on the server after the rule has been enforced for X amount of time will of course lean in the favor of the non-boxers, since the boxers aren't around anymore.

I didn't post to make you rethink your rules. I'm just saying I'm sad it is this way, and I (and my friend) won't be playing because it is. I hope you guys have fun though. Ciao.

I have to say I disagree with your logic. It's in my opinion that no one knew wtf they were talking about prior to the server launching, and only after X amount of time would they have been afforded the time and experience to offer a REAL opinion.

The original boxing poll on the beta forums had 31 votes, btw. 31... on an anonymous internet poll.

I think its safe to say we now have a more accurate gauge of opinion.

If you can *only* have fun playing more than 1 character at a time, I can't offer this to you. Good luck.
