I don't think English is mandatory to play on P99, just that if you box and get caught, not speaking English isn't going to be something that you can use as an excuse (i.e. because you couldn't read the rules or that because you can't understand English you couldn't comply with the staff's instructions when they investigate you for boxing)
Well, OP clearly said that GM expect you to understand basic English tho?

My wife does not understand "basic English", ergo we couldn't get an IP exemption if she wanted to try EQ (she almost wanted for Green hehe).

It's okay, I understand the abuse if they don't say that.
But it sucks.
It's like when I lived in Japan and couldn't go into onsen cause i had tattoos even tho the rule is clearly for yakuza.

It's an easy fix to a complex problem, hurting people on the way for the greater good.

But as I said, I understand it. No problem.

I used to box on live... 3 chars + 3 mercs... (unless someone wanted to join my group, then I simply drop mercs/chars)

However, the NoBoxing rule is one of my favorite things about P99.

Keep up the good work!!! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Anyone ever suspect it on P99 but felt couldnt think of how to ask? I swear I was hunting gnomes down in Solsek Eye one night and there was a caster duo who joined the group. Felt like they were only acting in tandem and sometimes one would respond for the other with stuff like , " oh he's going to get a drink" I dunno, it was a weird night maybe they were just inattentive players. Well, they were really inattentive players but maybe not one boxer.

They could be playing in the same house. My brother and I live together and when we play he sits behind me so I’ve spoken for him when he’s afk etc in that context.

Often you have people who use voice chat in addition to talk to each other. So they might communicate in voice and not so much in chat.

I got trouble enough trying to play 1 character and /pet_000. Kudos to those that can bot army and whatever but it's not on my list of to do. I think I downloaded Discord and it all default settings but typing help while dying just seems more classic to me. Yea man, what he said up there.

blue server - no real reason to box outside of some nerd dominating a camp that 20 other guys are sitting in line to camp... obviously don't want that going on. Buffs aren't a big deal on a blue server unless you are downing some raid encounter with minimum amount of players.

red server - A different issue, there are a lot of reasons why boxing makes sense and a lot of the boxing issues are solved with pvp anyways. Requiring constant buffs and in a certain order make some classes awful to play without boxing or gives a huge disadvantage to some classes that are helpless without certain buffs. If you come across someone boxing to hold down a camp you can most likely destroy them and fix that issue on a red server.
