Okay so basically what most of you are saying is you like the advantage and if anything was changed, the people who sit on this game all day would throw a another ZNM tantrum and leave, Mkay, let's switch up the 'discussion' then.
Quote this post only if you answer the following questions, please
1. Do you think dual boxing is fair, and is it within the rules of the server?
2. Do you think 10 boxing is fair, and is it within the rules of the server?
If you answered yes to 1 and no to 2, why no to 2? Because it gives you an unfair advantage? If so, dual boxing absolutely gives an unfair advantage as well, but to a lesser degree than 10-boxing
Still unfair advantage.
There's people sitting in treasure chest zones on an alt picking a lock an hour while they xp on their main. They would never actually normally sit in that zone all day every day, but they can because it's zero effort and they can still progress. FFXI was designed to make you make choices on what you want to spend your time on, and this takes that away.
And this server is a different game, yes, but that doesn't mean everything is right. How about the low level player trying to make money off those chests, but can't because the low effort chest poppers tank the price of everything inside due to massive supply?
As a high level player, it's nice to dual box and it's efficient and you make a lot more money than you should be able to, but is that selfishness worth it or fair for the new players who have much less opportunities on Nasomi? Put your greed and selfishness aside and have an actual discussion on the matter for a moment
1. Yes,
2. No....
Cause nasomi says so, for the example of the chest popper. I learned a long time ago that farming server gil (selling to npcs, or getting gil from chests/coffers, etc) causes inflation. Farming economy gil (crafting mats, drops, bcnm, etc) stabilizes the economy. So the new players farming chests will see lesser and lesser return on gph from popping chests, than say farming lizard skins or beehive chips over time. The people popping chests will in the longer run, help the new chars a bit, can already almost sell 2 stacks of crystals and buy your level 7-10 gear from vendors. That inflation is a double edged sword, but leaves more in reach, than out of reach for new players anyways, so that point falls a little short. As for the argument to why would db be allowable, a personal example, 1-15-2019 yesterday, was getting ready to do a01 for a couple of ls members, was 4/6 to start with, decided needed to use a 2nd healer for our setup, asked social shell but nope.... Shouted in bastok mines but nope.... Lucky for them I had an alt whm that I could dual box. Now by the argument logic, I should leave that whm parked, just play pld on main, and not be able to get the mission done, by literally everone elses logic "let me log my alt in, I'll dual box if we must".... Keep in mind anyone would much rather fill the spot without dual box, but when it comes to either impede progress or dual box, even you would dual box. Unless.... Eh....
