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 do get the ideal you are trying to make, but i have to say its that fact for people having to pick & choose what to do that helps others out. like you say grinding or selling, since you can't do both many are willing to haggle down so they can return to grinding which helps stop overpricing items abit, not alot but enough to make it feel like its worth something to new players to save pp up. this is just what i see with the benefit of not having the ability to two box. o as well as people not grinding faction anymore or being social with others when needing food/water or money exchange needs in some cases your main never needing to go to town & always having a toon in every town ready to do business for you. i can just see the flaws in a boxing aspect, but i do agree it would be very nice to be able to transfer for yourself & as well as for those whom don't get on at those golden hours [You must be logged in to view images.

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.

Ignoring the fact that, at the very least, I didn't insist in any way, ignoring the fact you're calling people 'scummy' for no real reason, and ignoring the fact that you seem to have a very large stick in or around your ass in regards to this topic due to your incessant need to be a dick in every post regarding boxing or the possibility of boxing (such as your unnecessary use of the term 'fag' in the second post), your post STILL makes no sense (ironically). This is because, while there may be other servers that allow boxing, there is no CLASSIC servers that do. People playing Project 1999 want to play Classic Everquest. Thus, your point is moot.

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.

Clearly someone is very confused.

I'd also like to point out the irony of someone saying that the term "Fag" is unnecessary and immature when they are constantly swearing.
