Just to confirm - am I still able to run multiple WoW clients simultaneously, manually clicking between them, and manually activating abilities, with no use of any broadcasting or multiboxing software of any kind, and still be within legal use under the Terms of Service?
Thanks very much (in advance) for the clarification.
Still looking for a yes/no/clarification on this. 
yes as long as you dont have anything automated or are cloning keystrokes to multiple clients.
you will be fine if you manually control each client individually.
Yes but the “windowed” mode required on a single monitor sorta kinda blows for some reason, the optimization is lacking badly especially considering that the game is so light duty.
You’re fine as long as you do things manually.
The issues with the current change is that it now includes hardware, not just software. Before you were only banned from using keystroke-mirroring software. Some keyboards out there allow you to set up and program macros. “Cast fireball on screen 1, alt-tab to screen 2, cast heal on screen 2” - all with one button press.
Because that’s done via hardware it used to be allowed, now that too is banned for automation reasons.
So I won’t get a ban for clicking (very) quickly between windowed WoW clients and spamming whatever key I’ve bound to a /assist macro? I honestly do want to stay within the rules here.
Assuming your /assist macro is INGAME then you’re fine.
Basically, as long as every window requires it’s OWN keypress / mouseclick to activate an ability within it’s OWN window, you’re absolutely fine. Multiboxing is allowed as long as everything done is accomplished in the same manner as 5 people would/could do it. (Seperate keypresses / clicks per account)
5 people on 5 computers could run a group where 4 of them pressed “1” and an IN-GAME macro does “/assist bob, cast fireball.” So you as a single player go: click window 1, press key 1, click window 2, key 1, click window 3, key 1…etc. and you’re fine.
but why lol
