Default Playing with brother

Hey guys, I played Everquest pre-kunark, and up to the Planes of Power days, and am hopefully going to relive some of that here!

I was reading the server rules, and it says the server 'doesn't allow more than one computer from a local public internet to access it,' or something along those lines. I was hopefully going to play with my brother, who I live with and has a computer right next to me. I was wondering if there was some way the server/admin can differentiate that, since we're not two boxing. I think they have separate IP's but are on the same network. Any response would be great! hoping to play soon. cheers

Just file for an IP exception, they do it on a base by base case. Just make sure you never two box/dual box because they are really good at catching that here, and they WILL ban you.

Sweet, thanks for the reply. And if that's the case, I'm not worried at all [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Where do I file for the IP exception? We were hoping to start playing tonight!

To reiterate: Make sure you don't box, they'll catch you eventually.

I used to be like you. *lights a cigarette* Then I decided I just couldn't wait for my brother to come back from vacation to transfer my fungi tunic, and then BAM *Throws vintage Prima EQ Kunark strategy guide on desk*, Zade shoves his banhammer up my ass and permanently strips our exemptions. Now we can't both play together and share our mother's basement. I had to move out and get a job, and my raid attendance dropped so they kicked me out of TMO. Fuck

Just want to stress this point again - be very careful that two people are behind the screens. There is a very anti-two-boxing stigma on P1999, and people report people they suspect are two-boxing all the time. Don't be dumb and risk wasting all the time you put into your characters just ruin your rep and get banned.
