All that shit is easier to put together if you get to box on the two servers that then get merged.
Understandable but like I said earlier thats just the p99 meta theres always going to be a #1 guild on any server you go to you just have to try and out do them, I get the fact that this could be a problem but at the sametime its also not people farm items on both green and teal right? cool that means theres more of those items on the server and prices go down or stay about the same its called supply and demand. Like the pre nerf CoS people farmed a shit ton of those and the price only went up a bit like a couple k when they got nerfed just using the CoS as an example

Your argument is "shit's never going to be perfect so why worry about trying to improve it at all"?

...

You're exasperating.

No it was an economics argument based on supply and demand. If you want to knock out everything the number 1 guild can do that makes them better have limits on hours per day an account can be logged in for.

As for most people I'm sure they are okay with the top farmers farming 2x the tranix crowns so they can buy one versus them just having the monopoly on 1x tranix crowns. If you think farming an item like that is stopping the number 2 guild from raiding they are out of luck anyways, because the number 1 guild can easily hold down the top spawns in classic on one server.

The effect of people 2 boxing is a huge exaggeration and a non issue.

Except you also ignore the ease with which you can get tons of plat via farming. People playing on both simultaneously means more plat farming/influx of currency into the economy which advances things further down the road to inflation and high value items costing absurd amounts of plat that really only the fat cats can afford.

Do you guys really see a big advantage in playing two chars at once on different servers? Are you worried about a guild farming more items and having more plat than another guild or a guild being able to level more than 1 char at a time? I don't think for most classes it is that advantageous to level 2 chars at the same time unless they are both solo classes. If you are a group dependent class... which is also the type of class guilds need to get ahead, they can't really go afk to play another char.
You clearly have never bumped into the decent number of people boxing multiple characters in a group on P99

Go afk? What are you talking about? It is not very difficult to play 3 at a time well, 2 is easy.

Admit it, you are all lady men and need to reevaluate your life choices if teal boxing bothers you.

I'm actually just more loling at the outrage of various Teal players that some Green players are just boxing on Teal instead of permanently switching lol
