It would destroy grouping just like it did on live. Boxing starts out innocently. I will only box when I can't find a group. You start boxing a tank and healer. You start a group and after a while of grinding a tank or healer comes into the zone lfg but you don't want to drop a box because you feel you play better then a random tank or healer.

If boxing was allowed here I would pack up and leave and make a nasty passive aggressive post informing the staff how I feel

Boxing sucks

Boxing is stupid. Go play a single player game if you want to box.
This game is about playing with other people.

So apparently boxing precludes one from playing with other people?

Playing with myself can be fun, but playing with others is more fun.

Why, why why why why why why why why...

Yes, boxing "precludes" you from playing with others... because you are a greedy asshat.
The only challenge left would be soloing raids with your leet 25+ boxing skills.

Leave boxing where it belongs, in the ring.

Just the boxing experience on beta raiding sucks. Having a bunch of half afk clerics and buff bots sucks.

I will say being able to make my own group to test other content has been very helpful though. Makes farming quest items and testing groupable content much easier.

I love the no-boxing - I'd actually love a server like Firiona Vie (original mode) where there are no alts either (one character per account per real life person).

A FV ruleset (all items tradeable) under p99's no boxing rule would be sweet.

Agreed. I was farming armor gems with a two box duo at quadruple the speed I was able to solo the mobs. Then I realized they had internally tested all the quests by summoning the items and got sad.
