What is the benefit of that?
Using an IP exemption to sell accounts potentially? PL using 2 computers, sell the PL'd character. If the restrictions on boxing are ever lifted, expect 100s of new accounts to appear on the market. All the people that moaned about not being able to box will find themselves the victims of inflation unless they go along with it.

I don't know why many folks seem to use multiple accounts. Even folks who game alone seem to do this; they simply don't need IP exemptions for obvious reasons. Swish is probably right when he says it has a lot to do with account sales. On P1999 it's permitted to sell a character for in-game currency or trades. Maybe people plan ahead for the contingency of being able to sell off characters they don't use anymore.

In case you want to have your friend resurrect your own character, buff your own character etc.

Both my brother and I have played here since launch, and have not once been talked to by GMs about boxing. I don't think we have even been accused of it by other players.

I think if you aren't doing anything wrong, you won't have any trouble.

(I have AFKed with my bard doing healing song, and my bro killing crocs in oasis on his monk.)

Did you have almost the same names, same gear, and a brother following you around completely clueless? Probably not.

To top it off someone in the zone who is just waiting to catch someone 2 boxing.

Only read first half of this thread.

But the banned people are 100% boxing

They dont need to do a test or check your IPS your IP doesn't mean shit.

Everyone downloads a .dll (i'm not going to anymore detail because fuck cheaters) that gives them an almost 100% detection tool against boxers.

I didn't meant to sound like I was incriminating you. I believe most people are being honest when they say they aren't boxing.

You didn't get banned, because you weren't doing anything wrong. Which is what I meant.

You aren't thinking outside of the box(ing). huehue.

First and foremost would be having someone else rez you if your group wipes, the benifits of taking an extra three minutes to play hot potato with the cleric to get everyone rezzed vastly outweighs the amount of time it'd take to grind that xp back.

Not to mention Buffs, Power leveling, porting, corpse summoning, Multiquesting for an alt are all things that would be impossible to do for a character that's on the same account.

if i could box my enc and clr for buffs all of my groups would jsut level retardedly fast.
but i cant cause they're (as well as my alt im leveling) are all on the same account.
lol people using multiple accounts imo should be a flag for boxing. me and my brother and our friends used to have 4-5 accts each when boxing on PEQ
