I replied to the wrong person, sorry about the confusion.
If you can’t beat 'em, join 'em
This is only true on RP-PVE and PVE realms. The bottom of the barrel.
No one is surprised to see an RP-PVE player complaining about multi-boxing summons.
Of all the complaints I’ve seen on this forum this one takes the cake. It’s like being on the absolute most carebare type of server isn’t enough you still find reason to put down those who put in more effort than you.

Blizzard has proven a hundred times over they care about the dollar. They are not going to stop multiboxers because of money. They could stop all gold botting anytime they want and don’t. Because they want the subs. This is no secret.
Good thread! Thanks for bringing this to Blizzard to fix!

Hello, Featherfall here, member of the alliance that kills most of the world bosses on Bloodsail Buccaneers.
Kazzak Scout: Kaidyra
Azuregos Scout: Marwick
I wanted to clarify a few things. Success on world bosses is about dedication. I’m not here to argue about multiboxers or not. I’m just going to say that we’ve got people willing to stand out in Blasted Lands and Azshara to watch for a boss to spawn that they personally haven’t needed loot off of since week 2.
It means that on those occasions when we’ve lost a boss, we have a discussion on how /we/ can do better. We adapt our strategy, we improvise, we move on.
We’re not doing it to try to make other guilds feel bad. In fact, the biggest thrill of this hunt comes when we’ve had serious competition. There’s nothing quite like snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. I know you guys have beaten us a few times and I bet you were really excited. In fact I made it a point to congratulate your raid leaders on a well-deserved kill.
We welcome competition.
The nightmare is coming, and I’m going to be there, watching while I work on my novels. I will be watching. I will be ready. I will outlast you.

Are you actually trying? Sounds like your guild doesn’t care enough to try, stop expecting a handout, this isn’t retail. If your guild is as whiney and incompetent as you it’s no wonder you can’t find a bunch of other guilds to group up and beat… a multi-boxer? Are you kidding?
Get a grip you derranged loser.

Imagine how many Warlock Summon-bots you could have leveled by now, if you put that much effort into leveling two to park out at the bosses, instead of complaining on the internet about how unfair World of Warcraft is.

Honestly, this is the first time in 20 years (since launch of EQ) I have heard of PvE players complaining about multi-boxers.
Usually its I just got one -shotted in wPvP so multi-boxing has to go away

It was fun and exciting the first few times. I came from P1999 before classic so it’s still fresh in my mind.
Getting an Avatar of War kill feels great, but sitting there for 10 hours waiting, on high alert is only fun for so long.
I do not miss world bosses at all.

Hi! I’m that multiboxer that you’re complaining about! 
I’d like to refer you to this resource:
One person (even a super-duper multiboxer like me!) can’t hope to counter an organized group of dedicated, skilled individuals. You know, like the guild I belong to. 
I am not the cause behind you and your guild not getting 78 of the 87 total world boss kills for our server, since they started. For the record (and you can check this on classic wow logs or some other resource my casual multiboxing self isn’t aware of ) I’ve only been present for maybe 10 (?). Something else is the cause for you not getting your desired kills/loot - perhaps try taking some personal responsibility for the situation and addressing it by… you know… playing the game in a way that seems to have been successful for others?
You’re exposing your ignorance here.
If you really wanted loot, or a “fair” advantage, perhaps you should ask Blizzard to create a loot lockout for world bosses - “your account can only get loot from this boss once every two weeks” or something along those lines. Look - I’ve played on multiple characters in raid groups that your guild has been nice enough to host, and we’ve had a very good time playing and I’ve appreciated the opportunity to enjoy the game with you guys. Our guild isn’t full of jerks, and neither is yours. If you want to vent about something, and are feeling at a disadvantage somehow, be productive and positive about your feedback and work towards a healthy, amicable solution.
Eliminating multiboxing from the game isn’t going to get you more boss kills, I promise you that. Multibox summoning is nothing more than a convenience for a group of folks that already is dedicated and skilled enough to begin with. If you want to match us and have an equal chance at kills and loot, assemble a dedicated, organized, skilled raid force with individuals willing to take the time and make the effort to do the same things that we do.
But really - don’t take it out on my multiboxing backside. If you want to chat more about it, I refer you to my thread that I posted on our server forums not long after Classic was released:

We have a couple multi boxers in the guild. Neither of them have more than 1 warlock at each point of interest.

So you have your own parked warlock alt summon your other guild warlocks first.
