OMG, is it really EQ?!

Boxing can kill the social aspect of the server. When this started in 2009 there were only a few hundred players tops so the boxing moratorium really helped this place feel like a community. I prefer the rule even now that we have 1000+ playing.

Shoot me a tell in game sometime if you have any questions.

When people start feeling the need to box thats the first sign to hang up mmoing and find a new game or hobby thats a sign of a real addiction right there me i love immering myself into my sole character which i still do to this day and i love p99 for that.

Looking forward to see you in game!

Problem is if you allow boxing, everybody that does it has a competitive advantage. Pretty soon, everybody is compelled to box or be left behind.

That's the one reason i won't try project 2002. I don't like boxing and i would hate to be in a group of 4 with only 1 real player there besides me.

Both the wife and I have made it on and we are merrily making our way about.

Level 5 with tattered armor and tarnished weapons. The fact that we remembered enough to be able to accomplish that is pretty stunning. Relearning how to drive, where to put the windows, targeting and assist commands...i won't speak for her, but man I suck. Last night after I got us killed in Blackburrow, I was setting up my spells for the CR and realized that I could have likely saved us if I had remembered to use my new spells. But at the same time the command "/toggleinspect off" just came back instantly, as did "Ctrl W" when the wife close the main actions window. It's odd but I do have quite a bit of grey now so it doesn't really surprise me.

You'll find me online as either Iceborn or Lakes, the wife is Daneka. We're terrible but happy to say hi.

Cheers,

Ice

Agreed. It's nice when you find folks just looking to play the game.

There's nothing worse than being in a group with some pedantic loser who tells everyone how to play their class, what to do, etc, and then just goes OFF on everyone.

This is really EQ as far as I'm concerned (a lot of people like to mountains out of molehill differences). The main thing that has changed is people's attitudes, computers, and information about the game. It's still way more fun than modern MMOs IMO.

agree 100%
