Should this server allow boxing of level 1 characters only?

But that is only representative of a raiding guild, a group of people who arguably take their gaming more seriously and would be more likely to pay for a broadband connection simply for gaming. Raiders on EQ have always been the minority.

That might be the case, but it's certainly much closer to being a realistic representation then just taking a random sampling of people on the internet in 2002.

Bottom line is, there will be boxing on P99 as per dev statement.

It kills immersion, is non-classic and there are plenty of other servers that allow boxing (unsurprisingly, they suck compared to P99 - maybe precisely because of boxing).

Sorry, it IS CLASSIC. It doesn't kill immersion because EC is already stuffed full of low level mule characters trying to buy/sell anyway. This thread isn't about boxing generically; it's specifically about allowing boxing with an account that is only allowed to have level 1 characters on it.

Again i ask how do you enforce such a rule? You are all for changing things but have yet to say how it should be enforced.

Whatever, bro. You're fighting a battle that has already been lost. Sometimes it's wiser to just let go.

I'm not fighting any battles, bro. i made a suggestion that would improve the server.

[elwing]

how can it improve the server? by making some seller 24/24? that will just break tunnelquest experience and remove lots of opportunities to make good deals for the people that take the time... the market is really different depending on the time of day, allow boxing and you'll ruin that.

You can box on just about any other server out there - why here?

Because the economy is shit. A week of constantly looking and not finding any 50-54 spells? Not even remotely classic. Not even in the same god damn zip code. A better question is: why not.... and for the millionth time? And don't even god damn start talking about boxing in general. Only level 1 characters.
