    Sry if this is discussed, but due to the size of my search results, there is more about never asking for clarification, sorry if i waste anyone's time

    That's fine. 1 char per PC and max 2 chars per person. IP isn't a problem.
    Essentially, you have your main and can box 1 alt with 2 PCs

    Just play on Rizlona, bud. Nobody knows how the GM enforcement of this 2box policy will go, but everyone is expecting a circus.

    It's like this, if they don't enforce the box army bans, I will not play here. I'm sure others will do the same. So do whatever you want, if I see your box army I will report it.

    I'm betting you're not alone in this. Will be a lot of Karens (not necessarily you in this group) reporting anyone with more than one person on /follow

    I strongly suspect there will be several families all playing together, in groups of roughly 54-72, as that is the average size for an EQ player's household now.

    If you are truly two separate people it'll be fine. However, if you try and use the "brother" excuse to cover 4 boxing, you WILL get caught. It's very apparent when someone is playing all the same toons; they log on together, they are constantly moving together, etc. So please, if you're just wanting an excuse to box more toons, expect to get caught and banned. Don't come crying on the forums about how "unfair" it is, you'll get no sympathy.

    If you and your brother are legit, there won't be a problem.

    If you're really asking if you and your brother can play....

    Yes you can. It is perfectly within the rules for you and your brother to each play 2 character (1 physical computer each) from the same household.

    However, if you run around with 3 characters AFing 1 character all the time, and it generally looks like there's really only 1 active player and 3 boxes, you should not be surprised when you get a lot of attention from other players and, potentially, GMs.

    If you are worried that what you have planned with your brother may run afoul of these rules, i would encourage you to play on Rizlona. Only you can answer that question for you. The DPG team have been deliberately tight lipped on how they will enforce the very clear rules they've set forth.

    That's how it would appear if a family were legitimately playing together, too.

    If your family is all logging on at the same time for 16 hours a day to camp freeti all day... Well I'm sorry but you're screwed.

    I strongly suggest not /autofollowing with all 4

    This is funny, because my 3 friends follow on me almost all the time. They say it's because I'm a spaz, but really they are just lazy.
  14. Accipiter Old Timer


    My wife used to do the same. Left alone, she couldn't find her way from Kelethin to Steamfont. To be fair, we didn't have in-game maps back then.
  15. TheDohn Augur


    My 5 brothers and I are going to autofollow you.
  16. Tucoh Augur

    When my buddy learned about /follow he used it as much as possible and called me a rickshaw service.
  17. code-zero Augur

    Since the last patch on live both me and my girlfriend have noticed that suddenly having more than 2 characters logged on results in one of them crashing to desktop. Since having 2 characters up seems to be no problem I'm thinking it has something to do with Aradune.
  18. MaestroM Augur

    Weird. This hasn't been my experience.
  19. code-zero Augur

    We are in different time zones and this has been happening, we usually box 2 or 3 characters then group but this is sort of killing 3 each. Sometimes it'll happen if only 2 are on but that's usually if one goes auto /afk
  20. MaestroM Augur

    To be clear, you and your girlfriend do not live together, and instead live in separate time zones. Additionally, each of you are having trouble staying logged in to both 1 main and 1 boxed alt?

    Weird.

    Hope its just a local thing though!
