what? thought exp bonus on full group is active since start on p99! if not, why even bothering about boxing ?

I dunno... is it? There's been speculation, I can't see where any dev has confirmed:

But you bring up a good point... one of the sole purposes of the no boxing rule is to promote grouping. Clearly that is important to the devs, as it has been one of the most contentious decisions on the server that it seems like they have to constantly defend. Yet, boxing was classic. They've knowingly deviated from "what is classic" in order to promote grouping, and therefore the health of the server.

I find it a bit hypocritical that they would put in a detriment to grouping by forcing the group to share the hybrid XP penalties when clearly they could make another decision that was contradictory to the "classicness" of the server in order to promote grouping, and therefore the health of the server.
