"boxing test" should not be used by GMs

[Casteel]

also because RnF is the correct place to go to get a boxing ban overruled and/or the methods with which boxing is confirmed to be seriously discussed. this will work every. single. time.

Kittens has just lost all of their honor here. Arvan should delevel to level 20 and restrict himself to old world zones and Spasepope should delete his character. Kittens should have to change their name to <Can't Even Cheat Well> for at least six months until they can fully unroot the massive cheating syndicate located within their ranks. Also limit themselves to 1 group mobs like KDT and Vilefang until order is restored.

deleveling sounds awesome! i got vulak axe and primal lol i should try it

Yes. This is a modern feature on most laptops/operating systems to prevent accidental clicks.

It's also super easy to disable - here's an example for a very common touchpad driver - Synaptics:

I was recently banned by the Project 1999 GMs for "boxing" for getting power-leveled by a guildie that could not complete the boxing test. I performed the test which was figure 8's around the fountains in Unrest and passed myself, however the other person could not citing they were using a laptop and did not have a mouse leading to them not being able to successfully run while doing figure 8's (modern laptops disable trackpad input when keyboard keys are engaged).

This video demonstrates the following.

1. Figure 8's with default setup without mouse (i.e. using laptop with trackpad)
2. Figure 8's with default setup with mouse
3. Figure 8's with strafe setup with mouse
4. Inability to do figure 8's while in motion with strafe setup without a mouse (i.e. using a trackpad on a laptop that is force disabled when keyboard keys are engaged)

The "boxing test" fails to account for individuals that may very well NOT be boxing; but due to their setups are forced into failure by the GMs given the current "boxing test" does not account for alternative setups or lack of a traditional mouse.

TL;DR/DW "boxing test" will generate false positives for people with non-traditional setups and bans for people not boxing. I'm also probably going to quit P99 because this is ridiculous you can be banned for something outside of your control.

Dude, consider yourself lucky. P99 started out as a great server, but it's a disaster right now and it won't get any better. The GMs have created so many detrimental presedents that they probably fear losing credibility if they were to back off of those decisions. It's painful, I know, to admit P99 is no longer worth your time because it used to be such a good place, but there are far too many toxic people playing and far too much favoritism and looking the other way to justify any significant investment in the server anymore. I moved over to TAKP and I'm severely disappointed that I didn't years ago. The community is so much better at TAKP, it really doesn't compare. Best of luck.

TAKP actually looks interesting, I remember seeing some videos by SuperBitsandBob on YouTube a while back with him playing on there. Looks like less drama too with the raid scene than Kittens/Vanquish/Riot on 1999. I'll check it out thanks!

Tried the same story out on reddit. Didn't work there either. So long, misanthrope.
