This bums me out! I consider ( or did ) EQ2 my secondary MMO. I have 6 accounts there and I play it when there are gaps in WoW content. I am already maxed out on triumph badge gear in WoW. I can log on and knock out the frost badge random in less than an hour. It wont be long before i have a few hundred K in gold and items. That is when i find it hard to log in, so I play EQ2 until new content comes out.
SOE benefits from people like me, even though we do not maintain active subscriptions indefinitely. The two to three months a year I play 6 accounts = more than a single account who plays all year.
I do not see how it is an "unfair advantage" over 6 individual players. There is a lot of instanced content that is much more difficult, if not impossible, to BOX that 6 players could do very easy. The ONLY advantage ( and not unfair ) is that a boxer does not have to waste hours waiting for groups, and they PAY for that privilege. That is not any more unfair than taking a car to work over walking. You can afford it so that makes it unfair?
