2 Boxing is rampant on this server

[Famous]

It's been a while since I have played here, I started up again recently and am just appalled by the amount of blatant 2 boxing that is going on. The worst part about it? People seem perfectly happy with ignoring it as long as it can provide them some benefit.

How convenient it is that as soon as there is a death in the group someones "friend" is nearby to offer a rez (the same cleric that has been AFK at zone line for 3 hours). Or hey look at that, the friendly AFK enchanter is here again to give the group C2, really fantastic that you come back to the game just a minute or two after it fades, every time!!!

I have been asking people in tells if they think the character is being boxed by our other group member and 9/10 times i get a positive response. But hey, as long as it helps us EXP we should all just ignore it right?

How many AFK 60 clerics/chanters/druids/shamans hanging around in lower level exp zones does to take before the no boxing rule just becomes a joke entirely? Or is it a joke already? Is there some unspoken code here that we should ignore people that are boxing as long as they are PLing us? Please let me in before I start laying on the petitions.

If you suspected someone of 2 boxing, why didnt you report it like your supposed to do?

No idea if they are boxing or not but you'd be surprised to find out how many people really do sit a ZL or camps for their buddies. My brother and I did that all the time when we played together. EverQuest is one of those games that goes hand in hand with AFKing. Lots of downtime in everquest therefore lots of alt tab youtubing, especially on blue.

that said there probably is some 2 boxing going around but I wouldnt call it rampant. if you think someone is breaking the rules then petition.

I know Naena sits at a zone line or just logs out at a camp all the time when I'm exping, mostly because he's AFK playing Heroes of the Storm, or Hearthstone or LoL or whatever. So I suppose it is possible some of these folks happen to be in the same house or something and can just lean over and say "BREEZE BITCH" like I do :P

Amelinda got something right...she'd sometimes broadcast: "I can see you 2-boxing, I'd log out now"

Then the server pop dropped by 14-16 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Or for complete strangers for that matter.

Petition it.

Is this a serious post?

All those AFK guildies your talking about... Did you ever consider that maybe they contacted them in some other manner...

Chick as an avatar. Why am I not surprised! HAHAHAHA take that gamer girls!

ninja edit : after considering it for a few minutes, chick avatar probably = girl. Successful troll is successful troll.

Always report suspected two-boxing.

Two-boxing is srs business.

If the person is legit AFK alt-tabbed and just being nice (which happens more than you'd think), they will be none the wiser that their IP was checked (and cleared) by a GM for possible two-boxing.
