Attracting some less 'boxy' players

I'm thoroughly enjoying the sever. I have a 6 box crew that I'm slowly working through old world content. I plan on stopping, grinding out perhaps some sol ro armor, epics, etc, before doing the content in order, expansion to expansion. It's a blast and because of the changes I still need to spend time to move, but it's not horribly painful and I feel like I can accomplish quite a bit in even 30 minutes of play time.

That said, I feel like a lot of people would actually really enjoy the server even without boxing, or only boxing a duo. It's very approachable, and feels a lot more authentic (albeit it faster), because there's no straight up custom content (minus the charm).

Anyways, not sure how to market to them, but I imagine there would be a lot who like it boxing aside. I'd have a blast playing a single toon if I had a few buddies doing the same, for example.

I try to run solo Im not a fan of boxing. However due to liking multiple classes ive slowly started to box. But I dont enjoy it as much as pure solo and 100% focus on my main rather than oh my stupid box is facing a wall in the front of zone...

The server used to be 2 box only, then was increased to 4. Now it appears to be 6 box? I dunno maybe Control isn't bothering to enforce boxing limits anymore. In any case I think ( for me anyways) 2 box is fine..3 boxing I can only stomach for a while and then anything more than that is too much of a chore even with MQ. This is 1 of the big reasons why I played on this server to begin with, no bots or boxing armies running around.
