+1 even with MQ...

I'm going to give it a try for sure. I know it's heresy to say here, but I really liked Luclin and PoP was pretty fun as well.

I think EQ's history with an honor system can speak for tiself on any server that has ever existed.
False. They have ways to catch you like they do here.

This is why you don't allow 2-boxing, its a gateway drug.

im sure no one would take advantage of the "honor system" put in place by the devs there

While I can't say with confidence whether or not what is said above is the norm, I can say with confidence that in my experience on servers that allow boxing (2.5 years on PEQ before P99 even existed and another 2 months on a localized progression server with pop under 100, again before P99 even existed.), I leveled a druid single box 1-65 without any issues finding a group/partner.

The only limitations that are set on you by not boxing are the limitations you decide to set for yourself, if you are a good enough player (your automatic condemnation hints that you at least believe you are good enough) you shouldn't need to feel that boxing is a problem or a threat. It's not like they're promoting the use of MQ or SEQ like PEQ did which I personally was not fond of since among a plethora of other things, it made both tracking and pvp retarded.

I'm happy that Sleeper is going to draw the line at 2 characters per player as that's the number of characters I had most been comfortable playing on the servers that did allow boxing, I know this because after attempting to 3box on PEQ I had ultimately decided to leave the 3rd character in the bazaar since it was seriously effecting how well I was playing the characters not to mention ruining the immersion factors since I refused to use MQ/SEQ to 'smoothe' things over.

That in the end is the whole point though, they drew the line at 2, they also deemed MQ/SEQ banworthy, so there won't be gigantic bot armies that plagued servers like PEQ. Sure raiding the Plane of Fire that one time with 3 humans (my 2 and a husband/wife combo's 28) was fun, but the novelty of it didn't last and the following raid with 20+ humans was much more fulfilling and if I had to choose between the two I'd pick the latter every time without hesitation.

Indeed, which is why my girlfriend gets to play and one or both of us has the option to box a second character in the event that we decide to do so.
What's your point?

There is no xp loss in pvp, presumably because there is no pvp [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I submitted a long list of bugs a couple of months ago, things like the fact that mobs don't start fleeing until like 7% and other similar shit. Kegz said it was all being worked on or already fixed on the test server. Now I see that literally nothing on that list had been fixed, and he plainly lied about it to avoid having to do it. For a dev crew that claimed to have secret authentic documentation of classic stuff and have been in development since 2011, it sure is a garbage server when it comes to bugs and being classic. There's something wrong with basically everything.

yea right
First off, where did I say that she boxes toons? Reading comprehension for the fail.

Secondly when I was on PEQ there were 4 husband/wife groups in my guild alone that boxed 6 or more characters each.

Just because you have shitty luck with the ladies doesn't mean that everyone else is. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
