I've been boxing groups on my own private al'kabor server with MQ2 and I absolutely love it. It is a game of micromanagement of several characters, programming (writing your own mq2 macros), and good old everquest and with enough experience writing quality macros you can just play one character and use simple commands to tell your group what to do and let the macros take care of the rest (clerics healing when hp low, etc.). At the moment I am maining a rogue in a 6 person group and dont have to switch to any of my other characters to do anything. It is like p99 minus all the idiots.
I really cant say I enjoy the boxing on Al'kabor or P2002 without MQ2. It turns it into a really fucking annoying game of alt tabbing and manually clicking and entering keystrokes that way and i think it is just plain tedious as hell. I understand why these servers don't allow mq2 though and I agree with it, but I do think the servers would be more fun (for me) without boxing.
