Boxing is great on p99, can do so many things alone.

People often accuse my group that one of us are boxing... up until present my group had the following make up :
Myself, roomate, GF, brother, brother's wife and another friend. If our group is not complete, we get pick ups. The pickups/outsiders often think something is weird because of our general lack of typing unless we need to... why is this? We use skype. Often my bro and his wife will leave their chars to auto follow me when running through a zone purely due to laziness and more often than not, we are accused of boxing. Let me just say that if you are going to report someone, please get your facts straight. I'm sick of having to complete GM related tasks to prove we are not boxing because you people are so offended by the thought and are super quick to jump to conclusions. | ||

There's not many ways to identify someone boxing outside of the ones you listed. If you're suspicious of someone boxing, pay close attention before reporting it though. If in any doubt, don't report it would be my advice.

I play on projectEQ sometimes, and even box there. The zones and items are not accurate, though. Probably 3/4 of the toons are boxed. But when I play on p1999, look out! If I spot you, it's curtains for you, I say.
I once was in BB and saw suspicious behavior. A toon was following another and ducking over/over and attack at precise times. It was very weird. I did not report because I was not certain according to what I know. However, if I had stuck around longer maybe I could have found out. In any case, I think the no boxing rule on p1999 helps to make it unique. The servers shouldn't be the same and I"m glad they're not. I think there should be a server that goes up to PoP and stops. This one goes to velious and stops. Why not? Remember, if you think boxing is cool, take it elsewhere! 1 in 500 people might prefer cocoa puffs over fruit loops, but if you have 300,000,000 people that amounts to 600,000 people who prefer cocoa puffs and if you serve them fruit loops you'll get it thrown in your face. If only a few people don't like boxing and they come here then you should not come here to force your boxing habits on the people who do not want it. This world (eqemulator) is big enough for the minority populations. When they come together, they're the majority! Respect others and they will respect you. Follow the rules. Don't box. Put away mq2 and your other tools.

A direct report leads to a GM popping in front of you while you're at a camp, or any activity for that matter, ports your group out and makes you do various tests to prove that you aren't boxing. This exercise gets tiresome because some douche bag thought you were boxing lol... it's like putting wheels onto a tomato, time consuming and utterly pointless. | |||

Threads like this make me paranoid of the inevitible day when my wife and I are asked if we are boxing. We're in adjoining rooms and can just talk. Her butt's on the ground a majority of the time medding.
I understand the animosity towards boxing on this server, and I didn't even like it in live. However, there seems to be an anxiety over it on p99 where people are wanting to see it before they even open their eyes. It's like assuming a plumber isn't booksmart and being surprised when he or she can critically deconstruct The Great Gatsby...

If you can talk to each player just have one count to you in tells from 1-50 and the other count from 50-1 simultaneously. You'll know if they are boxing.
