It also allows people to play the class they want to play but still be able to have enough clerics to do content.

This means you can get loots without having to recruit warm bodies to play support/buff classes. This will be a bit of a shock to the warm body crowd who is used to zerg surfing for loot and security.

I have had fun on devnoob/image servers in the past and it has been designed for low investment casual pvp server, pretty much the opposite of Raid99.
Nobody boxes in pvp really, those that do pay for it dearly and it shows in the yellow text. The common practice when engaging a group who is boxing is to go after the support classes that are being boxed to get 100% free yt right away.

If you don't want to box, you'll probably still find a home. You're only hurting yourself in terms of leveling/farming/raiding if you don't though. The content is really easy and it's not hard to find 2 easy classes to box (afk monk is the best dps in the game...by far...with bare fists).

that's not the everquest i remember or want to play tho. to each their own, i find that allowing it kinda forces players to 2box or get left in the dust.

The point of these servers is quick access pvp without having to invest hundreds of hours into leveling up/getting items. If that's not your thing then I wouldn't suggest it.

lol'd.

I personally wouldn't be playing with Lite. I think this is lite's first time on the image box? he's in for a beating if the image box OGs come out to play.
