It looks like this section is in reference to external applications or companies taking real world money for said services.
I can’t stand the spam that boosting brings to the game, but I wanted to just point out that we have to be careful with what we quote as rules without citation.

Or we could just follow along with the rules as Blizzard has said they work which means multi-boxing is fine? Just because someone doesn’t like something does not mean it’s cheating.

Well, its only fine to Blizzard because they gain money for it.
That would be like a group paying blizzard to look the other way while they commit to no good things. On lookers might see it as bad and it might be, but since Blizz got the money, they will just say, “looks fine to me”.
Point is, this is clearly an issue and just because Blizzard is willing to look the other way on it doesn’t stop us from having the discussion.
The tired old gem
Or. . now follow me. . Most people walk by and shrug and go on while a small number of others tell the officer they don’t need a license because they are “traveling”
I will give you a moment for that one.
Point is, it’s not as big a deal as you WANT it to be.
Can we move on with our lives and enjoy it?

You certainly can. Get your butt off the forums and play the game.
“I don’t see it as an issue so its not an issue.”
I see you got my reference. . good gooood.
It’s not as big an issue as a SMALL bunch of you say it is.
But I won’t convince you of that, and you won’t convince me that you are right. So, we part ways here.

You do know if Blizzard did ban multiboxing, it wouldn’t even make a blip on their bottom line. The whole “makes them money” doesn’t hold water.

No according to Blizzard that is. It is using a program to copy your actions across multiple accounts that isn’t. So a person needs to be in command. Once that doesn’t happen it is against the ToS.
thats exactly what I was saying, blizzard has said multi-boxxing is fine, thus it is not botting.
You don’t play with nameplates?
I think there’s no reason to limit the number of accounts 
I heard this before, I recall reading that the EU is the one with that restriction and NA is unrestricted. I followed the link here but that line mentioned in the reddit OP
The maximum number of Accounts that a person may register on the Service is limited to no more than three (3) Accounts.
Doesn’t seem to exist anymore.
https://www.reddit.com/r/heroesofthestorm/comments/3vz9al/psa_the_battlenet_eula_allows_a_person_to_have_a/
Can you provide a source saying the 3 account limit is active? Google also didn’t give me anything. It wouldn’t affect me because I only use one account but I have at least 7 bnets
Wasn’t an issue for me the past 13 years I played. I didn’t hear ONE not ONE person, not ONE SINGLE PERSON EVER mention multiboxing before I started. I knew it existed, didn’t think about it who cares Then I decide to do it and now I notice all the threads lol. I imagine that’s how most people are, doesn’t affect me, don’t care .

I still love how people thinks this makes Blizzard extra money per month.
Dude If they are boxing to make gold from goods/resources it is pretty easy to see that they can make enough gold per month to buy the in game tokens for those accounts. They only thing they are losing is a little time not real life money and they still turn a gold profit.
Why is it so hard for people to figure this out?

and this is exactly how blizzard makes their money from them. the tokens don’t just come out of thin air, the tokens are provided by other players purchasing them (and selling them for gold) however according to international financial accounting standards, that any international company has to follow. Blizzard is not allowed to record the purchase of those tokens as “profit” until the token is actually redeemed for a service.
so no matter who paid for the token, it doesn’t become profit for blizzard until someone uses it. and in the case of multi-boxxers, they use a lot of tokens for month, which = lots of profit for blizz.
So while the boxxer may not be paying blizzard directly, they are still earning a profit for blizzard, the people who buy tokens to sell for gold are just footing the bill.

so you can say the general player base is financing multiboxers in a way.

The number of subs is one of the indicators that directly affect their share value, since they are a listed company.
The main cap is the number of players actually playing. Since multiboxing allows one player to generate multiple accounts, multiboxers help Blizzard inflate their share value, as investors will assume these paid subs will eventually buy something from the store.
Why is it so hard for you to figure this out?
Edit*As for the multiple druids stacked together, it sounds like someone used a script to align them, but it still is not defined as a bot under Blizzard’s definition as long as one person is controlling all of them.
Edit2* The reason I am posting on this toon I am levelling is because I swapped to this toon to crack a joke about how Draenei do not always crash their ships, but when they do, they crash onto me.
untill blizzard says using software to duplicate keypresses is no longer allowed sadly nothing can be done about multiboxing. it DEMANDS that software no one in any capacity is alt tabbing between a dozen windows to do it. They may stomp feet scream and yell otherwise but it needs software and if blizz did outlaw it, multiboxing WOULD cease completely
The big issue I have with multiboxing at the moment is the armies of them camping in quest areas making questing become actually impossible. These players are engaging in blatant zone disruption and there HAS to be a way to deal with it. Currently they cannot be reported for zone disruption such a right click report or ticket option doesnt exist. I cannot even try and bait these players into pvp flagging, they somehow do not aoe my characters
Something needs to be done in that regard either give me a pvp solution to these pve multibox disruptors or give us a right click report option

Friend of multi-boxers.
Some of the stuff they/we do borderlines on exploitation. Hyperspawn camping for hours, x10 of the same node on a single account, ect ect.
But so long as Blizzard allows it, they’ll just keep screwing with the economy.
I’ll always blame Youtubers tooting the horn on how good it was on this combined with Long Boi. Way too many people started doing it and it’s just caused issues, instead of it being a weird niche thing that a few people did for fun.

Katarose gets a 3/10 troll attempt unless he is actually that bad of a player.
At any rate, another great day of multiboxing awaits, 15 years worth of it now and still going. 
You would right click and report as Cheating if you feel the need to do that. There is a text box that pops up then you can add your suspicions.
