Answer: If you could box, you would therefore not need another player to fill the role of your box.

why are grammar good?

EQ and skill: What is it? Is it the solo challenge, sitting on the same camp for 18 hours or the ability box 5 chars without 3rd party programs? Surely there's a definitive answer not derived from opinions somewhere :P

I'll never forget seeing 6 Wizzys on live running around Mana Burning Gorenaire down and more. It was a sight....

Nobody here really wants to play live.

I'm not entirely against boxing. I guess it depends on how many chars you box and what you are doing with them. Boxing a buffbot to heal and buff your group? Not gonna bitch about that, but boxing 6+ chars to lock down content that should be for groups...not cool. Most boxers I came across on live were only doing 2-3 chars and more than willing to drop them from the group when we had another player come along

If anyone has tried to play the new progression servers on Live (Ragefire/Lockjaw), they're terrible. How the hell did these guys actually screw up EQ? Running around the new versions of Freeport, Commonlands, etc, is nauseating.

cus boxing is like the gateway drug.. you box, you WILL use MQ eventually no matter what you say or who you are.

Also as others have said, a select few would completely control the entirety that is norrath if you could box... I for one would camp like 9 things at once and I'm a frickn casual.

Have you ever said anything that isn't utterly retarded? I mean, most idiots manage to parrot something a smart person said from time to time.

Community is what actually set classic EQ apart from newer MMOs, not mechanics.

Boxing, instancing, the Bazaar, etc all pretty much killed it.
