The idea of this thread is stupid, and how it was argued was rather poor. I don't think the OP has read the previous million pages of this debate already.

It would affect this server, under current circumstances, negatively. Play here for a while and you'll probably agree. If you don't think you can play a game without 2boxing, you probably shouldn't play that game.

It won't get changed - especially if your argument essentially ends with "You will not allow people to 2box, therefore you consider them better off dead." At least try harder than that if you really care about changing the rule.

Hell, I'd love to two box if I could. I just think it would destroy the population within 6 months. I would rather enjoy P1999 for the long haul then enjoy it only for a few more months.
I can appreciate from where you are comming from, but at the time, I was in highschool and paying 15 extra bucks a month(which I beleive was lower at the time) to run an extra account was very easy for me to do.

P99 will lose all the value gained over the last year the moment twoboxing is allowed.

Man.. hundreds of us are already two-boxing. You just gotta know how to get away with it.

Oh, congratulations on the engagement.

Could always allow boxing during low population hours.

Personally, I don't care, I'm going necro when Kunark comes out and I'll live either way, but I can certainly understand why people who play odd hours, like I will be, would like to have the option to dual box on those off hours.

I multiboxed on live and still made every effort to group, so people saying multiboxing will ruin grouping are fairly clueless or they would realize that if people didn't want to group, they could just pick one of the other Emu servers out there and box up to dozens of toons.

I like MMOs for the interaction with real people and other than Diablo I've never really played any other game like I've played EQ and have been into them since my first one 34 years ago.

I'm guessing people are here for the nostalgia and for me pre-PoP which for me really was the best time in EQ.

To the guy who mentioned people computers not being able to handle multi boxing anyways was also pretty clueless. I was able to dual box quite easily on a Laptop with p3-700 Mhz and 768K of RAM 10 years ago and unless you're in the 3rd world, everyone has a more powerful systems who are playing now. FYI, I could box about 24-30 toons on my current machine.

Either way, I definitely wouldn't go more than dual boxing. You can make a pretty powerful 3 box set with a warrior, cleric and enchanter.
