It's supposed to come up this friday. No time has been announced I think there are a few factors like when the server is racked up and connectivity is up etc that are unknowns thus far.

well it was back on the server list a bit ago but locked, could be good news , but could be nothing.

Thank you Sir and Mam. Unless the mam is a sir, and the sir is a mam, never can tell these days. ;)

ah good to know! thank you

i is a maam :)

I don't see the problem with boxing two characters. It doesn't ruin anything, It's just another way to enjoy the game, and "classic" eq allowed it i bought a second account in early 2000. I understand the rules on this server and I'm not trying to get them changed (im actually having a blast on just one) I just think its silly when people complain about something so transparent as playing 2 toons instead of one. I can understand when you are running MQ and botting an entire group, yeah thats a little silly, and really only serves farming, but there are a lot of times being able to log into just two accounts is very useful and actually quite fun. Whatever though just my 2 cents.

Well... You are essentially taking up more bandwidth and server resources and contributing less to the community... It seems inconsequential, but if everyone did it you'd have a ton of people duoing with their box instead of interacting with the community and grouping. So I don't think it's fair to say that it has no effect. I think it just ruins a lot of the classic feel by making people less dependent on others. *shrug*

Fair enough, and being as i don't pay i cant argue :)

Plain and simple... buffs = pl'n/farming = kills groups + kills economy. Just because you get banned for selling game items for real money doesn't mean it won't happen quietly. 2, 3, 4, 5 boxing would make it so much easier to farm. Look at WoW.

True agaron, but really if you wanted to sell items quietly you really dont need more than one account to do that. I think Jilena put it best with "taking up more bandwidth and server resources." I guess my point was boxing two characters never "ruined" a server in eq live, which is what ive seen a few people say. In fact it kept eq alive because unlike here, when you boxed there you actually had to pay to use those resources. Using wow as a reference is kinda moot. People boxed full groups in eq classic and sold items from very early on long before wow. For most people in the community it was in fact pretty transparent. But rest assured as long as people are getting free service on this account i support 1 account per person 100%. I just didnt consider the limited resources before it makes a lot of sense, thanks jilena.

If you were limited to 2 accts to box and you always accepted others to group with you, that would solve the social aspect and possible hogging a camp. But hard to police that. I was going to ask that but came up with the answer on my own. Do I get a gold star?
