No further argument needed.

At 10$ a month per account, boxing is classic. Only true psychos owned two accounts.

Disregarding that probably everyone here could have afforded two accounts without breaking a sweat, I'm sure there are a lot of us who had info to other characters they could utilize.

The arguments made on this board are so fucking dumb, no wonder the ones running the show don't want to walk through the ocean of shit to find reasonable ones.

It is more the principle than anything. Could you with a straight face tell someone you were paying 20$ and then when the price bumped, 26$ a month for playing a game, when you could have been paying 10 or 13...but you just really wanted that second account tactical advantage?

I always had too much pride and manliness for that.

The real problem is that if boxxing is allowed it will be an absolute necessity to leveling a character here. It is true that the present situation makes leveling for non solo classes very difficult and challenging, but with boxing they will have zero choice but to play the game in a profoundly non-classic manner, with two windows open clicking around with some healerbot sitting around like a retard.

Boxxing just makes for a terrible community. Guys that dont 2 box won't be able to get groups because most people will have a permanent duo partner.

When that guy does group with the 2 boxxer, the grouping experience is garbage because 1 character is borderline AFK and is slow to respond to things and the group is gimp.

It only helps SOME people get to higher level faster, but makes every other aspect of the game worse.

p.s. people stop playing here because PvP is only a detriment to their experience. It gets in the way of grinding, it gets in the way of PvE, and there is no reason to do it if you can avoid it. With item loot you can get rewards for conquering your opponents.

Guys that want to have fun on PvP server start a noob toon and get killed by a twink and then realize there is no reason to fight the twink and then quit.

Guys that want to have fun on item loot server start a noob toon and get killed by a twink and then realize that if they can kill the twink they can win pixels and then they tell their friend to make make another mage and then they find the twink and then wait outside unrest for him to zone out when chasing another noob and then maybe kill him and get great pixels.

I made the earlier statement because someone said that people quit here because there is no one to hang out with. There is no one to hang out with because there is not really a reason to play a server when your pixeling or leveling can be interrupted by some random PC, and there is no incentive to engage him.

I myself like to play efficient, having said that I hate to box. If boxing was enabled I would feel forced to box, which I enjoy a lot less then playing my single character. There are merits to enabling boxing, from my personal view they don't outweigh the negatives though.

I'm calling BS. I started here with absolutely shit and the whole twink boogeyman thing rarely happens. If you do by some miracle meet someone around your level at the lower levels you are usually going to group. People like you are the ones that drive people from the server.

If you actually played, then you'd know that for the most part, red has one of the most inviting communities.

But nah, let's complain about crap you were told about and not what happened to you.
