Places like Lguk and SolB are already crowded. If boxing were allowed it'd be even more difficult to try and get a group anywhere.

How do you figure that's anything other than conjecture?

It's called logic.

Boxing is allowed on other servers because they lack actual population. P99 gets upwards of 1k at peak time. Now if you had people boxing multiple toons you could easily double that number. The boxing debate has been played to death already. It's not going to be approved.

Hey quick question: Say you have an IP Exemption with a buddy.
But They happen to be playing from a different IP (yet you still have the IP exemption)
Will it show you are both playing from the same IP?

For example, in the case Rioisk, had his bro been playing from a different IP,
(yet they still have the IP exemption) would It still appear like they are boxxing?
Or can you tell If it's on a different IP? Or does it just show they are both exempt, therefore possibly boxxing?

We can see the IP.

Premature Submission:

OP, I'm sorry you got ban-hammered. It sucks, you were just trying to help your brother along, I get it. It wasn't malicious or intent to cheat.
But at the same time, you have to realize that per the HMFIC (head motherfucker in charge), you were boxing, and boxing isn't dealt with lightly.
In a post a few pages back, look at it from an admin PoV:
One of you is actively killing and the other is sitting doing nothing, and you both are logged in on the same IP.
Looks awful suspect man.

You all are free to come to whatever conclusions you like, from what little information has been provided to you by the party who got wtfb&. Rants and Flames isn't a Tribunal. We have more logs and investigative tools than eqlive ever thought of having, Rogean has done a pretty amazing job of coding in logging systems that are so thorough, that there's really not much of anything that we CANT see.

I will say this, however. The 2boxing, and cheating, and RMT is becoming a rampant problem. And some people might think they're getting away with it. But you can never escape the logs. It doesnt matter if you bought some plat back in July. Sure, the person selling it might cash in, leave the server, and 'get away with it'. But whoever bought it, is fucking torched.

It doesn't matter if you don't like the resolution. We're here to maintain the integrity of a server, for what seems like no other reason than for you forum ingrates to bitch about it every step of the way.

So get ready for a whole lot more of these rage threads telling half-truths. If you've been involved in RMT, get ready for a ban. If you've 2boxed, get ready for a ban. If you've cheated, get ready for a ban. Trading it off onto other accounts won't save you. Deleting the characters used, won't save you. Dropping it on the ground wont save you. Nothing you can do, will save you.
