only allow 2boxing until a certain predetermined population number.
allow global ooc until you hit the same # to assist with group finding.
how will you prevent and enforce MQ2/SEQ?

I agree on the /ooc, don't agree on the limited 2boxing. Its easy enough to flag when someone is getting xp while boxing that I'm ok with xfers and buffing etc. that are bannable on P99. The no xp rule prevents ppl from just boxing and not grouping. MQ and SEQ will have to be similar to P99 obv. I've already resigned myself to building a DLL to adjust client stuff anyways.

dont listen to players. build what you want. if its good people will play. if you try to please everyone, most times you'll please no one. do what you want to do, and you may love it. if you love it the project will do better. you shouldnt need other people/players to validate your ideas [You must be logged in to view images.

good luck

I want to build what people will play - that usually involves asking [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] However, the real secret is ignoring the stupid ones.

I read it as custom pop content after velious...i took that as hidden forestesk custom zones.

If everything but PoK is in game than I would play that.

Yeah thats where it seems to be headed. The debate atm is how to do that without completely obsoleting the rest of the game. Feel free to hit my forums and express your opinion.

I had this discussion with someone before about a quick transfer should be allowed, a sow, a buff. But when those buffs turn into thorns.. Is that okay? When those thorns turn into heals, is that still okay? Where exactly is the line?

So my theory here is that if you allow a little boxing over here, how much more difficult is it going to be to catch the illegal boxing happening over there? When there is 50 people on the server are you going to go check every group? When there is 100, 200, 500 people can you check every group?

But Sirken is right(and yes I see the irony of backing this statement after giving my 2 cents).. Make your server, don't make our server that we are too lazy to make but eager to suggest. =) run it how you want to run it and you sound like you know what you are doing so I hope it is a great success!

I was on board till I saw the 2 boxing. People will undoubtedly abuse it. If 2 boxing wasnt allowed period, you would have my sword.

Yeah I think there's an argument for having a shared bank slot or even an NPC trader(?) coded over boxing.

Every other emu seems to allow boxing, would be nice to try a no boxing alternative.

Limited two boxxing. Lol.
