Well I read an official thing somewhere off the EQ2 main site forums that the height adjustment was limited so you did'nt have those wackos running around with midgets and out of proportion muscles heads. This goes along the same lines why they crack down on people with improper names such as lord arseface
I think the weighting for the rest of the body could have been changed somehow in some way. Because really... all our body proportions will be the same. The only thing thats going to set our bodys appart will be skin color and height which will barely be noticable unless someones at top size and the other is on the low end.
