My support so far( and you haven't said no yet) is making the strongboxes into non-rare salescrates. That, or using the sales crate model, making new specialty boxes. I don't think too much emphasis should be placed on the time frame of the changes, just them being good. Just like stackable totems, good changes are worth waiting for( just not forever).

This is unfortunately not possible, as sales crates are actually a different item type from strong boxes, so there is no way to just automatically switch strong boxes into sales crates. It would require running a script over every character on every server to individually remove each strong box and give the equivalent sales crate item. And even if that were practical, since you can't carry sales crates in your inventory, if we did this we'd you'd end up with no containers at all and everything you were previously carrying in your strong boxes, now in your overflow. (And if we wanted to ALLOW you to carry stuff in sales crates in your inventory, that would require actually recoding how they work, and then would possibly just result in everyone carrying around sales crates where they now carry around strong boxes.)

If we did decide to make non-rare sales crates, we'd add them entirely separately. I'm a bit worried what they'd do to the rare sales crate market though, I think it might collapse completely (it certainly would at lower levels).
