EverQuest Madness

It’s call multi-boxing, and it’s the practice of playing more than one EverQuest (or any MMORPG) character at a time. Each character played requires a separate copy of the game and expansions, a separate machine capable of running it, and doubles the monthly cost of playing. Duo-boxing is quite common and useful because it allows one person to combine two complimentary classes, thereby not having to spend time finding a partner or group ingame. Any more than two gets exponentially difficult to control, and prohibitively expensive. Three is heroic. The maximum number of characters possible in an EQ group is six, and, well, if you’re an MMORPG player or just a technophile, you have got to see this (yes, that extra screen is a flatscreen television which plays DVDs during boring sessions).

Hey, we need some emoticons on this board.

Sounds like a pretty expensive and lonely experience.
Surely having another box with another human in the same
room would be more fun?
