I would really like to hear the opinion of someone who voted against it. I really dont want to start a fight. I am honestly interested in your thoughts on this.

haha you guys sound like you already are two boxing.

No wonder the server population is growing so fast lol.


Like Bubbles said 90percent of the server is either MQ, Dual boxing, or just asshats.

Make A SOLO class if you can't level on your own.
Make groups if you want to group.

Lets change the rules so noone EVER groups on this server again?
Probably not a good idea.

Two boxing doesnt really hurt grouping though. A lot of people wouldnt do it I think. I am for boxing for solo things. Also somthing to think about, two boxing would make it possible for smaller guilds to raid.

A 2 box maximum seems like a good number.

Why not just increase full group XP? This would encourage people to group with one another more. It's obvious that two boxing will never be allowed (which I support) but it's also obvious that this problem will never reach a solution without action.

I'd rather solo than group sometimes because I get large blocks of experience and I only rely on myself. The downside is that I am an enchanter and it's easy to solo for me because I rely on my red conned pet to do most of the work. What about Monks, Warriors, Rogues and other classes that cannot solo the same way that I do? They get the short end of the stick and I think that I should be more encouraged to group with them. What better encouragement would that be if I got more experience for having a full group? I'm not saying, give everyone 'solo xp' per mob in the group. I'm just saying adding more experience would make it worth my time.

I have absolutely nothing against boxing in most games. However, there are two big issues with boxing on P99:

- No subscription fee means there are only upsides to having multiple accounts
- Server population seems solid enough to where it would only hurt things

For those reasons, I think it's pretty clear the current policy is the right one.
This is a good idea too though. How about making a $15/mo boxing fee? I'd pay it and I'd be supporting the server costs. You can setup subscriptions in paypal and make it run php scripts (upon payment or when they stop paying) that would plug into the emu database to add/deny privileges. This may be a bit far fetched and some may disagree but I think it would be a good idea and help support the server adding to its assets.

Crap sorry misread the question.

Boxing is terrible. Probably the best rule on the server.
