Just remove all existing IP exemptions and have people apply for them on a case by case.

Exploiting an IP exemption would include 2 boxing or using it for some pve advantage. Don't see either here.

Draconic, blanket rule-changes will only make more work for volunteers (read: server staff) that already devote A LOT of their spare time already. And besides, isn't that the default system we've had in place for years? No one's account comes with an existing exemption, everyone applies on a case by case basis already.

Applying for an IP exemption and then using it to fast switch EVEN ONCE is using the exemption in an exploitative manner. Exemptions are there so multiple people can play on the same router. Using them in any manner other than the aforementioned intended use is an exploitation of the exemption status regardless of whether or not the use was advantageous in a PVE/whatever situation.

I mean I'm gonna /q almost every time still no matter what. I don't like going back to character select - it's an extra load and it's prone to crashing. I don't think the fast switch is something that has really been commented on from the staff before except to say it's not a grounds for an exemption. I got a few exemptions added when I was hanging out with Sloan regularly and we got locked out from traders/alts randomly because only our primary characters had exemptions. I don't think anyone thought it was such an issue until you had a high-profile target to demonize lol. I camp when I have aggro or am liable to get aggro soon, and I /quit otherwise. The fact that it takes me almost a minute to fully load seems delay enough.

If you didn't have the exemption, you wouldn't be able to utilize /q in such an advantageous manner. And since you weren't using the exemption in the intended form (multiple people per client) it was a misuse of the exemption status. Now, if you were to lose your exemptions, I bet you'd use '/camp' just like any other plebian.

So how long do you have to wait for it to be legit? Tons of people have legitimate exemptions and constantly fast-switch - I see it all the time. How long must one wait to not be "exploiting" when eventually logging on their trader 55 seconds after /quitting on their main? Should a person break out a stopwatch and wait at least 25 seconds before they start typing? I've seen people who load in a total of 30 seconds and less. If I really wanted faster loads I could just break out the RAM-Drive.

I'll eventually get my exemptions back - I will eventually need them. And I guess I'll just camp then to be beyond reproach, but I don't know, it's kind of stupid that this is an issue. I don't box, I don't poof.

I do legitimately use my exemptions, just not every day.
