Every token someone buys, be they a bot, a multi-boxer or a legitimate player, was put there on the auction house by a player who purchased it for real life money in the cash shop. In fact the token costs slightly more than the monthly subscription… that means even when someone pays for their account with gold, blizz is still getting their cash too, just indirectly.

It’s a money calculation on Blizzard’s part. If Blizzard felt that enough people were quitting over MBing they’d come out with a revelation about it being degenerate gameplay in this day and age and change their stance.
But proving and accessing that data is pretty difficult and I’m not confident that would ever happen. Moreover Blizzard, while maybe not doing this intentionally, certainly has made design choices that encourage multiboxing
What you can support your argument with the “ancient EULA” but others can’t. Come on troll, I thought you were better than that at least. And I said goodbye not because I was leaving, but because anyone with a sense of dignity would have taken the L and left this thread after getting worked over as hard as you have for the last few posts.

The amount of people who afraid of loosing their virtual “job” as perpetrators and peddlers of the player-created microtransactions is quite astonishing.
They are relentless in their blindness and devotion to no end to be yet another paywall between players and the game on top of blizzard itself, and their only argument is “Well it doesn’t explicitly says that Multiboxing is illegal, so its legal”.
Pity.
False-flagging is against Forum TOS.
Wait a minute. You quoted user Deathspoon with a copy/pasta of Hasla. Thanks for showing me another that needs to meet ignore.
This is exactly what I said.
Nothing more, nothing less.
But my point still stands, and the argument is still invalid.
The muliboxers, and the bots… are by and large not contributing, if anything they are a burden.
People will STILL buy the tokens, regardless, for mounts, for pets, for carries… for everything a legitimate player can spend gold on.
Losing the cheaters won’t stop that.
Losing the multiboxers won’t stop that.
Losing the bots won’t stop that.
My suggestion to Blizzard would be to ensure that converting a token to Bnet balance/Game time should be only allowed to an account that has had X many days, or months, active on it.
A customer.
Someone who has paid for server resources, someone who has helped fund development, someone who has helped pay a wage of the support staff cleaning up our mess.
This, one little change, would stop all the instantly span up, throw away accounts in their tracks, anyone actually multiboxing still can, still will.
People buying those tokens, still can, still will.
Not false flagging your posts, 95 % were troll posts

I see the botting community is still pushing their anti-boxing campaign.

OK people I need to step away for a little breakfast so here’s one more until I return. You’re listening to Azeroth radio, drowning out the trolls and spinning the hits.

There’s a reason people post on their Alts, and it’s usually because they know what they are saying isn’t worth it.

I only have a single account.
Blizzard has explicitly stated that multiboxing is not against the rules.
Try again when you have actually read the EULA instead of just being angry.
Also? When they don’t say something is against the rules, that pretty much does mean that it is allowed. Otherwise Blizzard would have made sure to say it was against the rules.

Slander is the correct term here. You’re accusing them of a crime while providing no proof to back up your claim.
And if you had any actual concerns about them selling gold for real money, then you should be reporting that directly to Blizzard.

More spam from the trolls. Dead horse has been beaten. Another day, another whiner.
They stopped even trying to type out coherent thoughts an while ago. I think you broke his brain with that EULA update bit. It was fun while it lasted.

Blizzard isn’t exactly good at reacting appropriately or fast enough.
