I think the reason players take cheating seriously is because the game is competitive and requires a HUGE amount of time investment and endurance. 2 Boxing directly impacts others because it allows people to level without the similar time investment, the EQ level grind is a big part of the game and most people can't handle the work it takes so they never get to high level.

There is no polite way to Cheat, 2 Boxing doesn't happen by mistake. You decided that the rules don't apply to you and hoped that you could fly under the radar.

2 Boxing impacts everyone:

• It screws with the economy since it quickly creates more high level farmers.
  
• It screws with PvP since it creates more high level characters to quickly fill guild ranks.
  
• It screws with the game, since it allows solo players to more quickly level without the need for other players.

And finally it encourages more cheating since with a single GM it is unlikely that she could catch everyone and a slap on the wrist punishment is worth it for the possible HUGE gain in levels.

I can't be the only other player that has seen a PvP game go down the drain due to casual cheating, duping,etc. With the lame justifications that "its not really cheating everybody does it" , "Dude you have to cheat to keep up with all the cheaters" , " who cares it's not like I am hurting anybody else" ...

Be happy with the XP gains on RED and let the Cheaters be Banned.

Nothing personal, but this is a EQ Classic server and wasn't designed as a fast levelling EQ PvP environmnet. Changing the XP rate is a HUGE change that brings along it's own set of problems.

Classic EQ was never a casual player friendly place unless you accepted the fact that your character progression was going take months or even years. If you don't want to make that kind of investment then play a game designed for your play style.

I came here to play Classic EQ:
I like the slow levelling,
I like that I actually spend time living in a zone,
I like that I get to play / pvp during the low and mid levels .

I didn't come here to play it like WoW:
Race through the low level content
Constantly throw away gear every few levels
Solo my way to max level before people bother grouping

Unfortunately, you guys already got trolled into making the server easier for these kids :\ You guys didn't listen to the advice of the guy in my signature, at all.

Harrison =P people want EZ mode, no trolling neccessary, loves <3

We aint got dah time.. any old EQ pro vet is ancient peeeps cause the game is almost 20 years old, so were all in our 30's - 50's now =P Thats the audience even interested in this, everyone else has castleville and WoW.

Infact its the primary reason I don't play R99, I am a bumb, I mow the lawn for my rent, but I still dont have the time to invest. I got 24 hr days I could just spend playing EQ, but I couldn't even think of doin it at 30 yrs, my bones won't let me sit at the comp like that anymore.

I am not trying to change anything, I want yall to have your epic perfected time capsule. So don't get me wrong =P just sayin what it is people are feelin. The pain of time and old age is catchin up =/ at least for me, and probably about half the other people who might play but just don't.

P.S. Boxing and cheating isn't the answer =P so that is not implied here. Its the only reason I think about this place, cause I like the no-boxing rules.
