1. Please clarify, as I've seen conflicting things on boxing.. NO I have no plans on 6 boxing Mages and a healer or anything crazy like that. But I would like to box a shm / druid. If this is not possible that's fine I just wanted to verify for sure as i don't know the server's population and I'd like to be able to group as well as level without retarded downtime.

There is no boxing allowed whatsoever.

2. About spells, exp gain etc.. example: monks back in kunark were boss tanks with their ac and defense (BEFORE THE NERF).. so are monks pre nerf or as they are currently? I'd like to know if swarm kiting is possible, things like this if anyone can sum it up for me ?

Monks are pre-nerf through the entire p99 timeline I believe, and therefore quite OP. Swarm kiting exists but the bards don't use charm, they swoop in close and use aoe's. Spells and the rate of exp gain are classic to my knowledge.

3. Whats the server population like? I understand you guys are in kunark, will Velious be opening soon? (easily my favorite expansion in the game).

Lately the server population has been pretty healthy, with 850-1000 at peak hours. Lots of lower level and mid-level grouping to be had.

Nobody really knows when Velious will be released and any timeline would just be speculation.
