The Dev team defines our rules and therefore define what is and is not cheating. You are of course welcome to have your own opinion no matter how wrong it is. Here are some links to help you out.

Unfortunately, even if you are the type of person that uses it for more rational recreational reasons. I cannot fathom why anyone just
needs more than one account, to use multiple characters at once, just to do a few things. I mean, its fine and you do what you want to do but unfortunately, you are in the minority of people that multi-box within the realms of what you use it for compare to so many who use it to PvP, mass farm, or whatever is deemed utterly annoying and devalues in the fun.

I don’t find it easy to be sympathetic because its just mind boggling people just do this for the sake of even multitasking multiple characters at once for legit reasons. I understand other reasons which is mainly why it is now a bannable offense at this point.

I think Blizzard has it all wrong.

Lot’s of people don’t want to be in guilds to get there quests and raids done.

Even multi-boxing is limited even were it still allowed.

Why Blizzard should rethink this

  1. They would make a $$ killing if they added multi-boxiing in the game software officially.

  2. Be able to do 40 person raids with all classes, by yourself
with no guild, when ever you want.

  3. World Pvp make your own unlimited army. that spawns private servers

  4. New challenges and skills

Blizzard could increase it’s income . Players would have more fun.

That’d be amazing!
But sadly fun isn’t allowed anymore.
Especially once a lot of the original creators left.

since ANY of us can do it, there is nothing ‘unfair’ about it.

I did the other day, lol.
Got tired of bothering really quick, as usual.
Just not my thing, I think.
Certainly shouldnt be actionable if some players enjoy it.

Multiboxing was fine. There was nothing wrong with running multiple instances, and tabbing in and out.

It was when they used key broadcasting software. What people fail to grasp is that it was never supported. They just turned a blind eye most of the time.

Sadly people should have come to the conclusion that one day, it would be enforced. Oh well. I personally could care less, I have done my share of multiboxing with and without software on games. Doesn’t appeal to me, but I always knew that it was never supported or allowed.

27 thousand posts. Do you even play wow? Looks like you live on the forums. Dear lord go outside.

Alt-Tabbing isn’t multiboxing.

That’s my uh
achievement points :grimacing:
Post count is above it and to the right
But even if it weren’t, it’s not your place to tell someone how to live their life.

Also this, sitting here waiting for rares to respawn :unamused:

Seems to me, Swarley thought of you having 27K posts
What of his “15K posts”.

As for your achievement points, right on. I’m lagging.

Well, I am out of /likes again. We will see if I ever finish reading the thread. I started playing in late 2006. I have been in one guild after another that died. In one I could invite members, but nobody stayed, or at least stayed active, and I believe you need more than invitation privileges to keep a guild alive.

I have made many friends in-game and had several real-life friends that played, but all of them quit.

Supposedly guilds and the community were far more important during Vanilla, but Blizzard focused on the story, and making the game soloable.

Who remembers figuring out how to do something on your own because you couldn’t find a group?

I leveled other characters later and felt disappointed that the elite was nerfed and made a pushover.

I want to win friends and influence people, but this discussion hasn’t demonstrated anyone being eager to get along.

In-game and out of it I am always figuring out how to do things by myself when I should have help.

I just cannot find anyone to assist me.

I pulled a stump by myself a couple of weeks ago. I don’t have a truck and I couldn’t have gotten one where the stump was.

I would have loved to do a shadow-clone-jutsu and used 3-5 of me to pull the stump, but you can’t do that in real life.

I had been able to in-game and it was fun.

Nobody cares what I want or what I enjoy, but why should anyone else care what you want and what you enjoy?

The irony of telling someone to go outside when they, too, are posting on the forums, and when they, too, have above the average number of in-game achievements is not beyond you, I hope. :heart:

I watch random videos on youtube all the time of stuff that I’ll likely never do, one of which was pulling stumps using “mechanical advantage” with 2x4s and rope, was pretty cool.

Not to sound rude but I felt like you never even read my comment, or the whole comment. We are echoing the same thing :slight_smile:
