The best Solo server on emo is THF (The Hidden Forest) great server and you can have 1 bot per group, along with all the boxing you can do..

Here, I like "no boxing rules".

This may make it that casuals will not like it here really, but so be it...it is what it is.

Classic EQ was tough and unforgiving.

...and multiboxing was allowed (though, due to limitations of the pc's and connections of the time, as well as the expense of operating multiple accounts; prohibitive.)

And, as I remember...very much frowned upon by the community back then. Which, by the way, is what we're talking about. Stimulating and expanding our community. 2-boxing is inherently prohibitive regarding growth.

I remember many times in classic I went hours LFG. No server-wide chat..no LFG tool...you had to travel to the doggoned zone to see if people were there.

How can anyone concerned more with the future of the server argue for 2-boxing? Seriously? You think the first waves of us had an easy road? We networked, found like-minded people, and there ya go.

You may not do exactly what you want to do all the time, true. Work on tradeskills. Explore. Whatever.

Find all that content they say was never discovered in original EQ.

Heh, I don't remember that sentiment at all. I boxed Kunark through GoD, playing 2-3 in groups, raids, and solo. I don't remember anyone ever giving me a salty message regarding my playing multiple. Quite on the contrary, actually.

My advocation of 2-boxing on this server has been, and most likely always will be, on a limited basis. I don't think it's for the good of the server that the whole population have a second account. I do however think that boxing under limited circumstances (as it was in classic) is not problematic.

Not you in purticular, But I always equated 2-3 boxers to gold farmers that ruin games by flooding the markets with the items they farm up in the camps they horded from real players. It happens on Live daily.

We have already had scammers, hackers and exploiters just this past week show players given an inch will take a mile...even on a free to play server...nothing good will come from allowing boxing.

No offense or anything, but you're going to need to draw that parallel for me.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
