Haha, won't need that. I don't live with my dad anymore. I just wanted to be able to explain to him why he can't start a two-boxing team on his several computers.

By searching the forums, what I have picked up is by banning two-boxing, we are trying to ensure players are inclusive. Am I correct?

Exactly. Its an effort to keep things fair for the player base and the economy. otherwise you could have an entire party played by one person.

In a nutshell yes.

Two-boxing promotes going online to play a game by yourself, and while some will state that boxing wouldn't make them less likely to group... I'd argue that it would make all boxers less likely to group some of the time, because if they've got their own setup then they don't technically need anyone else...and LFG time is hassle, right guys?

There's other issues with it as well. With account sales going on, we'd see an explosion in people levelling a 2nd account on their IP exemption to sell on, and then apply for a new IP exemption. I've linked before on the forums a "WTS" in EC advertising an account for sale with an IP exemption on it - then got called a scumbag for caring about such things (haters gonna hate, expose these people).

Big changes like these would have an effect on the economy, no doubt about it...and with the current economy being unstable as it is, I would keep well away from making changes like allowing boxing.

...and yes, if I'm grouped with some suspicious boxers, their ass is getting petitioned. Could link a few comments and pictures here but I've done it a bunch of times before. Check the two-boxing thread at the top of the page if you want to read more about it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Back on topic.

The server has been going for 3-4 years now without any indication of shutting down, so it seems to be going strong. The devs seem to have at least a minor interest in continuing to add content (they do have full time jobs, so it sometimes takes awhile.) Since it's free, it doesn't feel right to complain. I think the main Project1999 page has a donate button where you can send money through PayPal if that's your thing.
