I would have to vote no for dual boxing (not that this is a poll or anything)

Even though I plan to play with my roommate, we both decided - due to odd play times and the relatively small population - that we would play characters that can solo.

This is an MMO, if you want to solo there are (several) characters designed for it.

(I'm with the group that doesn't want to be forced to compete with people dual boxing rare spawns and/or dungeons)

So my girlfriend and I cannot play together?

Edit: I'm not sure the no-box rule has limited the anti-social, selfish players.

They're here already. In force.

it's BS because you see people boxing all the time.. I grouped with this one guy the other day, and he was like "OH this is my girlfriend!" but his other character that he was obviously boxing NEVER said anything and they were both playing at about 50% capacity. the no box rule is a JOKE because there is a server sponsored legit way around it. until we can box, or the 1 ip per house rule is really enforced and there's no loophole around it, i think i'm done.

You see people power leveling their "room mate" all ready, which is taking spawns from newbs who painstakingly take the time to find groups. it's not very fun when you see somone getting power leveled right next to you, with one character JUST SITTING AND CASTING HEAL EVERY 10 minutes.. If that's not boxing, I don't know what is. You can't give people the oppurtunity to box even for 30 minutes and tell everyone else it's a no-go.

That's called "the cleric class". Outside of the rare times we need to pull w/ lull, root/park, or chain stun, you've just desribed exactly what the cleric class does in EQ: Sitting and casting heal every ten minutes.

Agreed Bubbles! If I didn't participate in group chat I sure would look like I was a box at times. Especially if the group is smooth sailing and there isn't anything crazy going on. Sitting there meditating mana for the next set of heals is the life of a cleric.. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

My wife plays a chanter, like she did in live for 4yrs, and I've helped her out a little bit! It consisted of her pwning blues in CB while I watched her health and buffed her now and then. This is nothing different than I could do for any guildie at that level. Not boxing but might appear that way for sure. The GM's are watching!! Maybe not 24/7 but they are I'm sure.

yeha cleric is lvl 40+ cleric healing a lvl 14 in oasis! wow! I SHOULD HAVE ROLLED ONE! that's boxing, folks. tell me it's not and ill call you a retard. i wasnt saying the lvl 13 cleric healing lvl 11-13s, but it just becomes unfair when the "room mate" is 40+ healing a teen..

that's why we don't have boxing, yet ppl are still doing just that

I can see both sides. Matahari has been openly boxing since day one of the server with a cleric. However I was PL'ing my friend in SOLA the other day on my shaman and probably did look semi boxish if you just saw it happening.

Someguy, you make me laugh [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Boxing and PL'ing... two entirely different things [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] But whatever. You're obviously trying to stir the pot up so have at it lol
