"boxing test" should not be used by GMs

This is shown in the video -- with normal movement key bindings it is possible; however, for setups that opt to use strafe keys (used primarily for kiters for quicker run speed), it's impossible without a traditional mouse to turn while moving. This is where the "boxing test" fails and results in false positives with people that legitimately cannot complete it.

LOL - just stop boxing bro

You can easily rebind movement keys.

Shift D = turn right. Not hard. Get a lyfe.

The question is if it’s a “setup” that you have that cause the issue, then why not message the GM at the time and say “hey can you give me 5 minutes before we start the test? I have a setup on my laptop with these strafe keys that makes it hard to do the figure 8 without a mouse. Let me just change those key binds quickly so I can do the test effectively and we’ll be good to go”
