In my opinion two characters max isn't bad. Because it allows things like an extra hand when groups aren't possible (be it day worker who plays nights, or different timezones etc) and also allows for easy and safe item transfers etc without shared bank needing to be implemented (and can even exceed the size of shared bank) not to mention not having to choose between trading in EC or grinding xp/gear.

Beyond two toons however it gets to the point no one EVER would want to invite anyone else to a group and they become recluses. Having played PEQ and EZ I've seen this first hand. The thing with allowing a 2-box max, though, is it'd be kinda hard to enforce. I suppose no harder than allowing IP exemptions on a 1-toon only server but still...not permitting boxing at all is just an easier means and, in my opinion, the lesser of two evils.

I'm a fan of 2-boxing on low-pop servers like this one. Allows for people to experience more content without totally destroying the social atmosphere. Don't see a huge issue with it.

We can dream - unlikely to ever change given nothing major changes here.

You got that right SpeedyBanana, and that's why we're all here. This free house held by some fine hosts is mostely to our liking, think almost everyone will agree with me despite whatever argument they may have with each other.

The boxing rule has been firmly in place since the server's inception, back when we are astonished to reach a population near 300. "Declining" or not, the pop is more than double that now. Boxing rules aren't going to change.

im pretty sure Danyelle is a dude if that changes your perspective on the game at what you're dealing with.

I'm uncertain as to who you're directing this to, what they are dealing with, or what my gender has to do with anything. :P lol

Every other server ever allows for multi boxing.

What is with the insistence by these scummy two boxers to two box on the ONE server that does not allow it?
They do not make sense.

I think that if you want to two box, or complain about not being able to find a group when you are on, that you should find a friend in real life and introduce them to the game. You could call them up and ask if they would be willing to jump on for 30 minutes, help you out for a short bit, and in that way we would increase the server size and you don't have to complain about not finding a group.
As for wanting to accomplish something within 30 minutes, just play. Enjoy the 30 minutes. Talk to people, group with people, kill a few things. It's not about leveling. It's about enjoying the adventure and maybe even meeting a few new friends.
