Default How To Boost Server Pop

Since the "W" word isn't an option, I've seen people repeatedly state that they'd love to play on red IF it had more people on it so it didn't feel dead and/or there were people to play with. Why not enable boxing for a 1-2 month period to allow small crews to roll here, instantly be able to fill support class roles with boxes so they can hit the ground running, and then as population stabilizes turn it off? What is there to possibly be lost by doing this? Let's try it in the name of science.

The only consequence is people would be able to do more camps by boxing support classes.

More people will be rolling around with full buffs and ports looking for pvp.

I guess a negative is ...?

As much as I hate the idea of safe zones, make EC or north Freeport a safe zone people can go to auction/lfg/newbies to get buffs/ports. How many people on blue are just people in EC tunnel playing the auction game.

Would be a good way for new chars to buy gear, people to buy and sell to make money, etc etc. Plus the server numbers would jump up a fair amount.
