Yeah it does not have anything to do with 2boxing at all ;p You're right! I'm quite sure that alot of people would vote to turn p99 into a red server if they had the chance. Even before they would decide to allow 2boxing they would vote for PVP.. that's just my guess.

Thumbs down Selfishness anyone??

"Please make it so I can two box, cause I play when the server has only 200 people on"

I'm calling troll on this guy, If he had spent any amount of time on our forums he would know that we break 500+ every night now just about and it dips off between Midnight and 8am pacific time, So I guess there isnt much of a demand for EQ in the old world, But we arent about to ruin our classic experience to customize yours, so yah if you cant understand that... well I guess your just a selfish person, this server isn't about your needs, its about the community and the community doesnt need 2 boxers!!

I play at all hours of the day, I see what the pop sits at and Incorporating ANY form of 2 Boxing would ruin that. VZTZ is full of boxers, go join them, no one in this community wants you here, Either play 1 client or GTFO.

Which is why I simply ASKED if there ever was a chance of allowing double boxing, and stated some reasons for why it might be beneficial. I didn't demand "omg you must change it to this because of me!".

I'm sure I'm not the only one out there that would find it helpful to be able to two box because of circumstances, so I stated them.

No reason to act like an ass.

There's always a chance. Like I said earlier, basically, according to Nilbog, two circumstances must be met. There must be a declining server population, and a general consensus. Neither of which exist atm.

I would like to two box. I do not want to group. I do not like to group. I do not play well with others. I do not like to share.

I tried to play on the server and group. I didn't like grouping. Just like when I was on live.

On live, before my boxing days, I would either raid or solo. I rarely grouped even then, except on raids.

I am not a farmer. I found I am more help to others, with my own healer/slower to tag along with me. But in general, I prefer to do my own thing.

Eventually I hope we start to allow 2 boxing. I would like to enjoy the server too. As it is now, for me, playing on this server sucks. Lucky for you, I have very little time to play, and spend what time I can coding. When I have more time, I will probably want to start playing again, and will look at my options.

I have to ask this though.

If you don't have time to get groups, why play a support class?

I would like to two box because I think it makes it a little more fun/challenging.

That said, my view on two boxing is that you are basically taking up more bandwidth and contributing even less to the community. *shrug*

My loathing for 2 boxing knows no bounds. I wouldn't say I'd quit if it were implemented here, hell I'd prolly do it myself, but it just changes the dynamics of so many things. It dilutes the game. I'm not about to say its not useful or can't be fun, challenging, or empowering but it marginalizes every tenet the game was founded on. Its the most powerful e-z moadlol button there is. I do feel for off-hour players and players that simply aren't comfortable grouping with random internet people but at the end of the day, this game is supposed to be hard and rewards players are lucky or that put their noses to the grindstone and get-r-dun regardless of circumstance...much like the much hated game IRL.

I loved alot of the convenience features that live eventually incorporated; shared banks, maps, pok books but 2 boxing is cancer plain and simple. It kills games from the inside out. It literally sucks the life out of online communities. I'll admit that I'm disappointed that a dev has spoken in favor of 2 boxing but w/e, its nice while its not here. I'm just thankful to whomever has made this experience possible, 2 boxing or no. /bow (but plz never allow 2 boxing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] )

Lol @ 2boxing making things more difficult.

My Cleric/Enchanter combo was unfuckingstoppable on Live. I could rape things your full group wishes it could.
