It's probably harder on people with IP exemptions because they always have the temptation.


"Oh man I'm dead... I'll just log on my wifes character rq and go rez / buff my group"


or

"It's just one quick teleport nobody will know"


I bet more people get hit for that than "AFK" boxing


It's probably pretty obvious too... have one character that is only ever at a money / dragon camp and never moves (and its the same IP as another character that is moving)

It's like "naw dude, thats my girlfriend... she really really likes to camp dragons" >_>

Sure. you can appeal it after 4 months. and I might unban one of your accounts. But is it worth it to lose 4 months playing on one account AND an entire other account?

After I announced last night that I was hunting boxers I busted 6 more. Do what you choose but it's not worth the risk.

If you think you were wrongfully banned make a thread in the petition and exploit section.


Doubt talking about it out here in general discussion will make the mod's or GM's sympathetic to your case heh.


but like others have said... if the GM's or mods aren't being reasonable just go to a different server or game.


This isn't the only rodeo in town so to speak.

Like saying if don't like rules in NFL go play in pee-wee league. Other servers logging in talk to npc you get epic for free. P99 is only game in town. If another ever comes out which is classic I am sure alot of people would go there if GM staff where better,

You sure sound like you don't two box. You also sound like you respect and appreciate the GMs and their work!

I play with several family members and none of us are afraid of being banned for Two Boxing because none of us does it.

Do you like to two-box?
Go to one of the other servers. Sometimes people even encourage Two-Boxing, you can find people boxing their own groups as well, sounds like paradise for boxers.
I wonder why they insist on doing it the one place where it isn't allowed.

Thanks Funklesnarkin, I was not sure where to appeal.

I know there are other servers around but I think it can go without saying the community and spirit are what make a server. The community and spirit of P1999 is the embodiment of the classic EQ experience all of us here strive to relive once again. The folks around here, little as they know me (lurker status engage) are what makes this experience what it is for me.

I'm not sure what label or market managers at major publishers would call us, but you cannot find the competitiveness and concurrent teamwork that makes an Everquest server what it was back in old times anywhere else. Try and fail as they might, its the vision and beliefs the original developers put into the game that forged the synthesis of these behaviors. Progression servers that Sony is running are bastardized money grabs at our market and most of us see right through it. It was sticking to the original formula that breeds players that you find here, and I would not want it anyway else [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Naw.. basically saying if you feel the referee made a bad call.. don't go appealing to the crowd to riot.


Try using your instant replay to get the play reviewed.


If that don't work.. then i could understand a little appealing to the crowd ;p

Without reading the entire thread, the idea reminds me of the "Report a neighbour" system at the Soviet used.
Let the GM's do their job instead of trying to "World Police" the game yourselves, and expect rewards for it. I'm pretty confident 9/10 "boxreports" made by players are just bollocks; "Oh shit there's this PL crew here, probably BOXXXRZ, ruining my expcamp" etc.
