Hello all!

I came over all nostalgic the other day (as often happens) and finally decided to do something about it. So here I am, installed, signed up and ready to go.

But I wanted to check something before I start.

The rules very clearly state no boxing, and I have no intention of doing so (by my understanding of the word).

But just to be safe, I want to check please.

Does having an alt (a second or more character on the same server on the same account, which can obviously never be played at the same time as another character on the same account) count as boxing?

Eg. I will be making a druid on Example Server 1. But say I want to play a necro sometimes, instead of my druid (not at the same time obviously as it's on the same account), can I make the necro also on Example Server 1, or is that not allowed and I have to make him on Example Server 2?

I'm a terrible altoholic, as there are things I enjoy about the different classes, and I want to make sure I'm not doing anything that is prohibited.

Many thanks

Perfectly legal and I think most everyone has more than one character they play. You can even play one character on blue server and one on red server at the same time if you are so inclined.

Just do not play two characters on the same server AT THE SAME TIME.

Sounds like your good to go. I have all my character slots on my account filled out (most non-serious).

Altaholic here too. You wouldn't be nostalgic because of the Brell group on FB, would ya? :)

You can have more than one account also. I have 3 accounts and 24 alts. Yeah, crazy I know. :o
