I forgot to add something, boxing. There was a poll on the daybreak forums on how many people will do it, was around 70% or so last I checked.

Hey p99 devs, I was a little upset when I couldnt box when I first started here but now I see why. Thank you.

The no boxing rule is one of P99's biggest draws. If people want to box they can go to PEQ or one of the other EQemu servers...we've already got a problem on blue with people just twinking to the extreme and soloing - think how bad it would be if they could box 2 characters?

Bless P99.

playing because I can box and it's fun right now. I wish p1999 would launch a boxing server with the same code.

Have you ever tried PEQ? There's a decent boxing community there I hear (in the meantime)

Lol reading the post on the official forum is hilarious. They are so mad and throwing around bad ideas. The true definition of; mad. bad. sad.

P99 is the best. Feel lucky to have been shown the light of this server.

Yea, pretty much everyone on it boxes, but what kills it is that most people box 10+ toons at the same time with MQ tools and pretty much wipe it all out without the social interaction of what we have here on p99. Its fun, but it gets pretty lonesome pretty fast.

That is why it's good we have a no tolerance approach to it here... unique and very much a positive thing :)

Doesn't that mean that they're paying $150 per month just for subscription then??

Nah my man! PEQ is f2p, that's where everyone boxes a lot of toons like 3-30. I'm not knowledged on the Ragefire happenings, doe.

Sorry for the confusion, I thought you were referring to the new Ragefire server.

You should give Project 2002 a try, we enforce a 3 box limit to avoid this kind of situation :)

Lol that's actually a really good call. I bet there are players whom will be arguing over zone chats and then someone drops 'P99' in the conversation and voila.

And they will have a positive experience, too. Up until the end game p99 is a dream. As close to a sandbox experience I've had since ye olden days.

<Ragefire Survivors> now accepting all levels, lol.

So they added more /pickzone zones? I have to imagine this is going to get exploited to hell. Am I wrong in assuming "my 6 boxed mage group just wiped out the basement in unrest, i think ill /pickzone and wipe out the other instances as well"

Not to mention the named spawn opportunities.....

The newbie zones made sense, but these zones have me scratching my head. Oh well I suppose, since this is far from classic.

Pretty easy to stop that by increasing the time limit of pick zone.

Not going to lie, I'm liking Ragefire due to being able to two box. Its perfect for my playtime/constant need to afk. Grouped with a bunch of people as well and everyone was pretty chill and plenty of mobs to go around in the newbie zones. While I see the issues with people 6 boxing, I always hated not being able to 2 box on P99. Makes the level grind a lot easier for those of us without infinite playtime.

there's nothing wrong with boxing per se

if P99 had a low enough population, boxing would be a good thing. but there's so many players here that boxing makes no sense and only takes away from the social aspect of the game

Holy shit! The entitlement is strong in the replies to that thread. Confirms my absolute lack of interest in EQ live. That's not a community, it's a containment pen for a mob of self-absorbed toddlers. It's a wonder any of them can string two coherent sentences together in a post.
