Why not create an additional server that is boxing friendly?

Make them do things no boxer could, especially holding a convo at the same time) They did, but afterwards the scrotewank who reported them was like "I'm gonna keep reporting you for boxing lol because I don't care lol I know your boxing lol" and they decided to find something better to do with their time than be bullied by whoever he was.

Anyway, I didn't ask who the d-bag was. I didn't think harassment-through-troll-reporting would be effective, either on my friends or on P99 customer service, but they decided a server with people like that wouldn't be very fun to spend time on.

Yay, cyber-bullying.

And now back to the thread topic: A hypothetical teams-PVP, FV Ruleset, boxing-friendly server would also require AoE fear added to one random NPC in every dungeon/camp. Loooooool

that reminds me of a thread where one guy pointed out a case comparing PL service to boxing, where PL service is totally legit almost regardless of direct/indirect consequences such as hogging mobs in the zones and train caused, while having other similar effect as box PLing

PEQ server allows boxing multiple clients. I played there before P99 release, but couldn't imagine going back or to a different server now.

Thanks for the idea, perhaps I should give peq a try as well to decide whether it is classic eq experience or 2 boxing that is ultimately giving me the eq itch. Both would be better but it seems currently the only chance of that happening is if I make a server myself. Custom content is definately not what I am looking for though (skewed or modifiable stats, vast difference in xp per kill, although PLing indirectly leads to that, accurate item descriptions, maps etc)

It's not just about population in strict numbers but the effect it has on the server. Kill efficiency and game knowledge easily makes the population far higher than what the numbers say.

That sucks for your friends. But you can thank the jerks that DO box for this crap. if it wasnt for them your friends wouldnt have been 'harassed'. The no Boxing Rule is there for a reason.
