I don't understand how multiboxing is different that botting

Yes, and Multi-boxxers aren’t paying to win here.

So, it’s not just the program that replicates, but you, also, take issue with Multi-boxxing/Dual-boxxing, in general?

Be a hypocrite then. It only hurts you.

Yes it is, because you are noting it. And you are asking us to note it as well. Are you saying the ‘evidence’ you presented is not worthy of consideration?

Yes, by definition.

just for the advantage 5 character being fully maximized to their efficiency by a 3rd party program that replicates and (not automates) dynamically assigns their input would grant

my issue is when one player plays more than 1 character at a time to gain an advantage only possible by paying for it

prove im a hypocrite

its not noteworthy in that it serves youre argument that it should be considered an outlier when there are numerous other videos just like it showcasing nearly the same thing

only in service to your argument, that its noteworthy, making it an outlier, making it not worthy of considering as evidence. scroll up bruh x_x

These are just catchphrazes and buzzwords strung together into a barely coherent sentence.

Except it’s not, many games are free to play.

Numerous outliers. Cool story.

No, by the actual definitions of the words.

simplified, 5 characters being controlled by 1 player while utilizing 3rd party programs to maximize the efficiency of their intended goal

not classic wow

not numerous outliers

just ignore the fact that by treating the videos i linked as noteworthy you would then consider them outliers and then deny them as evidence where you would then consider your argument to be won as i continue to bring forth more and more evidence of players clearly being more powerful than players playing a single character

Yes, many players take a lot of advantages to play this game. Between getting a run through with a high level character to avoid having to share loot with other players around your low level, high levels ganking lowbies on PvP Servers because they can’t fight back, playing with Addons (like Questie that places Quest markers on the Map, when the default doesn’t), etc. There are many players taking many advantages within the policy that Blizz allows.

It was a “yes or no” question. So, “yes”, you do have a problem with people playing more than one character, at the same time. I don’t but continue.

Multiboxing is allowed. Botting is not. That difference between the two is obvious unless you’re looking to get butt hurt about it and choose to ignore those differences.

the difference is paying real life money for it

yeah you can call it me having a problem if thats the best method of staging your argument for if you want.

Such as?

Doesn’t matter. Multiboxing can’t pay-to-win in one situation, but not pay-to-win in another, just because a subscription fee is involved.

That doesn’t make sense on any level and is not logically cogent.

Oh so now you’re retracting your claim?

So you don’t think running SM in 15 minutes is noteworthy? Why’d yuo post it then?

being able to replicate their commands across as many characters as they want, reducing the total number of times a single character has to do something to complete their goal, such as how many frostbolts it takes to kill an elite mob, how many arcane explosions have to be cast by one character to defeat an enemy

arguing with you isnt worth my time, any realistic human being will understand where im coming from, and youre projecting this antagonistic viewpoint onto myself so that you can continue this inherently false argument that multiboxing doesnt grant advantages to the multiboxer

I could be wrong but obtaining the WoW Token through Retail, does it count as “an active subscription” to play Classic? If so, some of the Multi-boxxers may not even be paying real life money for said accounts. We can’t be sure. Regardless, they’re still not paying for the actual goods, in this game. But, we can spread the definition of “winning” the game, if you will.

IDC if you have a “problem” with it or not. I just wanted to know if the program that replicates actions played a factor into you arguing/being against (whatever you want to call it) Multi-boxxing/Dual-boxxing or not. Turns out, it’s not. It’s all of it.

And the only way a player has access to this is by multiboxing?

Because you keep losing.

I never made that argument.

Your problem is your inability to see nuance. You see everything as black or white, all or nothing. This is why you fail when you argue with me.

Anyone else notice each of their comments contains multiple quote boxes? I’m not saying you have to…or even should…but, if you wanted to, you could almost say they’re…you know…multiboxing quo…Nope, better not.

way to be obtuse. read exactly what I read, and think, I know it’s hard for you. people have an issue with multiboxing because they feel it conveys unfair advantages, and they blame this on it being “botting”, since you can accomplish EXACTLY THE SANE THING WITHOUT ANY SOFTWARE, then the point is moot.

Multiboxer does not need to spend time assembling group. Multiboxer just goes ‘Avengers assemble’ and the group is formed. All the work that went into setting up the group prior to that notwithstanding, but that’s like a one time thing.

Let’s not pretend that multiboxing does not offer enough advantages for it to be a popular playstyle. If all it did was offer disadvantages, what idiots would do it? the answer would be almost zero.

There certainly is an element of P2W in multiboxing, for P2W is like many things in life, a sliding scale. And multiboxing is probably quite low down on the P2W slider.

Think of all the F2P (ie P2W) games. There is nothing but upside and zero downside to paying to win. Multiboxing, even with its advantages, is very far from that level of P2W.

This only applies to multiboxers who run 5 teams.

I never disputed there were advantages to multiboxing. But they’re balanced by the disadvantages. I understand nuance is hard for most in this day and age.

It also offers many challenges which some players actually enjoy.

And despite what these forums would have people believe multi boxxing is actually pretty rare.

Since I’ve started multiboxing the past 2 weeks, I’ve noticed 2 others. I met 1 more on Discord.

Eh, being on an RP Server, there’s around the same amount of Multi-boxxers as there are actual RPers RPing on an RP Server. Then again, it’s my Server. But, I understand they still have to put in the grinding efforts in order to reach to level 60 and/or get BiS. Multi-boxxers don’t magically appear with these things simply for multi-boxxing. Nah, they still have to work for it, as much as everyone else.
