It's 1:55 AM server time and I can't get a damn BC quest done because of multiboxers

When I would multi-box I would dread going into places with corners because almost without fail, toon’s would get stuck on a wall.

It was quite comical watching them just run into the wall though. I would always worry that someone would be like, “REPORTING YOU! for being a bot.”

…are a violation of the ToU.
Report it when you see BOTS.
If its not bots, they may still be violating the ToU if they are griefing…which personally Ive seen more from non boxers than I have any boxer.

which can just be human players farming.
Even without boxing, they will STILL be doing this sort of thing. I know because I did it too.
Which means that if boxing didnt exist, you all would still be in here tossing a fit over druids farming.
Druids are the best class for farming. Its literally the ONLY class anyone should be farming on in the first place.

Yep, voicing thoughts and concerns about an issue, must be “tossing a fit”. We specifically were talking about not being able to complete quests, not just the botting/boxing part, but you either didn’t understand that part or you excluded that part.

Either way, in my exampe it’s botting. You can see them get stuck in loops when their AI fails, as a fine example.

…let me google how to report people, because that never occurred to me. Wow, report people? That’s a thing? On second thought, let me google what “report” means. This conversation is so complex. Wow, honestly reporting people, I never thought of that… :unamused:

You could have queued up for something random in LFG and got phased over, problem solved

Thats why I said if its griefing…report.
You clearly wanted to focus on boxing instead of the REAL issue there…griefing…which Ive never seen from a boxer to date…but have HUNDREDS of times by non boxers.
Why did you mention boxers doing it instead of just players?
Non boxing druid players do exactly the same thing. I see it on Isle of thunder all the time. literally destroying every thing in site the second it spawns.

Lol…so you all think that WE in here can do anything about it so you come in here to tell us? What are WE supposed to do? Go beat them up :laughing:

I was thinking about that too.
Ive only had to do the phasing thing or whatever its called, thru the group finder one time to finish a quest in the three years Ive been playing.
But it was quite successful.

“problem solved”?

ok, i’ll bite.

when was it changed so that you could phase into another realm, if those players weren’t in the same zone as you?

Its been like that for a long time. Why do you think when people are looking for pets or rare spawns they do this?

sure… with people who are in the same zone.

^This. And you don’t often find such groups for older zones.

I agree Multi boxing should be made a ban offence

Oh wow. I must have pinched a nerve cause this post got reported (LOL) and removed (LOL), then re-published by Blizzard mods (3x LOL).

Same old people showing up every time, Yesuna and friends. Same old WEAK arguments. The crybabies who don’t wanna give up their toy. No matter how much you talk about it, multiboxing is and always will be cancer. It is and will always be ruining players experience.

Answering to some people’s questions, I was working on my loremaster achievement, questing in the north east area of Netherstorm, where multiboxers farms elementals for primals. Usual 8 druid formation, 7 turrets and one flying around gathering loot. Usual pile of stacked corpses, usual sunfire macro spam.

I managed to phase having someone inviting me and forcing the phasing. The boxer was from the opposing faction, so no multi tagging on mobs.

again, BLIZZARD, BAN MULTIBOXING IN WORLD OF WARCRAFT!

dude/dudette, we totally feel ya — we feel the same, but blizzard just seems powerless or unwilling to kick these freaks.

“oh but they pay their subs” that’s nice, but they’re ruining the game for the rest of us, and they are multiboxing just to sell characters and/or gold, not legit play the game.

Is that really a surprise though? The forum community while it might be vast in population. It’s still only a few places for people to go. I might see a new face here or there on occasion, but I don’t think it’s the norm.

Editing to add

Are these also considered weak arguments?

It’s CHEATING
They are messing with the economy
They ruin the spirit of the game
They one shotted me in PVP

I clearly made my point, you misunderstood it, that’s on you.

I have no idea what your point is here. I’m guessing you don’t get sarcasm, it’s fine, I guess it was too confusing.

I responded to what I saw.

Im sure you dont…

uh huh…same old alts posting threads all the time. What do you expect?
Secondly…99.9999% of the player base ISNT in here whining about it.
That OUGHT to tell you something…

Thirdly…SO WHAT if its the same people responding? You think you all should be allowed to talk publicly, accusing people of cheating, and the accused just not be allowed to respond?
Sorry but you accuse…your accusations get a response. Thats how it works.

  • bad boxer ganked me (turn off warmode)
  • bad boxer stole muh nodez (its not your node)
  • bad boxer wont let me gouge (tough. compete or be left behind)

again, BLIZZARD, BAN MULTIBOXING IN WORLD OF WARCRAFT!

over 8 of you complaining in here 47 different alts?
Hardly.
This page was just recently updated in the last few days guy…boxing is here to stay.

yeah? sounds like about the same as I do with ONE druid and my Loot-a-rang.
next problem…

This is a WAR game where EVERYONE competes for resources. You might want to consider a single player game like Skyrim if that doesnt work for you.

speak for YOU…you DONT speak for ‘the rest of us’, believe that fact or not.
99.999% of the player base ISNT in here crying about it, lol…so your 8 voices are HARDLY representative of even 1% of 1% of the player base as a whole.
MY game is just fine with all the boxers out there…so this appears to be a ‘you’ problem.

1 find a mirror
2 repeat the above.

Yes, and 99.999% of the playerbase doesn’t come onto these forums and complain about racism or bullying in game… guess by your reckoning it must not be an issue, or exist.

No, it’s a Blizzard problem, and they should be working to fix this problem. We know they see it as a problem, as they do ban waves… Blizzard seems to agree with me on this.

Rocky, you don’t have to be insufferable all of the time, really, you don’t. I know you try, but you just don’t have to be as obnoxious as you always try to be.

A few weeks ago there was nothing but Gnome DKs in Hellfire. They would all run the same exact questing path and would invite anyone who got within like 4 feet of them.
