Things that need to happen for this server to ever succeed

- Wipe
- Very short classic time period (1 month, with perhaps a slightly longer legacy period)
- 2-3x EXP
- 2 Boxing
- Yellow Text
- Hot Zones
- Classic Resists
- Enforced LNS
- No raid zone binding / town only binding

there you go, everything you need for a successful PVP server. I don't think I can ever play a server without 2 boxing again. It's even worse in Kunark. No one enjoys logging on and waiting thirty minutes for a port somewhere, or being unable to do something because no one else is on to play with. For all the negatives certain people mentioned about 2 boxing, I don't see any of those issues on LoZ. People still group, and are incredibly considerate about removing a box from a group to make room for others. It's easier to get groups going, more classes to help others etc. etc., and it hasn't become some massive PVP advantage because it's very difficult to box in PVP at a high level. The LNS rules have been great, the exp for 51-60 is right on, though 1-50 is too fast which is why I suggest 2-3x exp, hot zones are awesome and funnel the PVP to a few locations, yellow text has been fun (and guess what people don't kill everyone on sight to grief like some warned).

How could you say that 2 Boxing is NEEDED? if that's the play style you want, LoZ sounds like a good fit for you. Double boxing hurts immersion IMO
