Couldnt care less about your claims friend. I KNOW what I see in 10 hours a day, running all over the entire game world farming myself.
sorry but there just AINT that many people running around with half a dozen MB characters.
and even if there were…and even if they were causing prices to drop for mats…SO WHAT?
Cheap mats on the AH = cheaper crafted items, potions, gems, enchants, for crafters to sell …and cheap means they sell more…which is another thing I do all day.

“I cant gouge the consumer anymore”
Thats all Im hearing right now.
Oddly enough…IF your claims are true…somehow,someway I manage to make tens of thousands a day most days when I put ANY amount of effort into it, upwards of 150k a day when I get really serious about farming and making gold.
Maybe this is a ‘you’ thing, not a MBing problem?
When what youre selling tanks, sell something else. Its a pretty simple concept. I do it all the time. Diversify. Many old mats sell for a mint, too. Farm those for a while.
lol.
What do you mean how it should be?
This SAME crap happens in REAL life, friend.
Try selling something on ebay and making money.
the second AnYONE sees that youre making a buck they WiLL pile up on you, selling exactly what youre selling until you cant make a buck and have to change to some other items.
Same crap when you sell with a real business.
I know. I deal with the same thing in real life.
Ive had other businesses cuss me out over undercutting their prices in REAL life, complaining that they couldnt compete with my pricing. Tough nuggies. THAT IS how an economy works.
Maybe people are multiboxing in real life and destroying the economy, lol ?
Sorry but this is EXACTLY how a real economy works because EVERYONE else wants to make money too.
MB’ers aint the issue. People want to make money just as much as you do.
and frankly, IF MBing were the issue, aint nothing stopping anyone else who wants to MB from doing it too. Its VERY easy.
The REAL problems with the economy are the jokers who list crap at 1000 times its real value, trying to drive up the TSM 14 averages so they can over charge.
Course, I get them on my server by not using the realm data but using the regional numbers instead, which makes my auctions undercut their insane prices back down to reasonable levels…which Im sure theyre crying about every time they see it. lol

Multiboxing is cheating, plain and simple. If bliz thinks it is making money off these scabs, they definitely are not. Since 8.3, Nazjatar has become a herb picking nightmare because of the multiboxers. At least one is running the place every time I’ve been there, sometimes 2 of them. Don’t believe me? Go to a high pop server and try picking some zin yourself. And here is some math to chew on:
I can pick maybe 150 zin an hour, if I am lucky. Multiboxers have 5 accounts, 5 times 150 is 750 zin an hour. Just checked AH. It is going for 47g a herb. 35,250 an hour for the cheater. A wow token is 147k. They need 735k for their accounts. You divide the hourly rate by that amount and it is roughly 20-21 hours of work for a month of FREE wow playtime for ALL of their accounts.
Of course, multiboxers don’t stop there, why would they? Had one in naj during the battle of nazjatar pvp event. He had 7 druids and 3 blood dks. He took out a lot of us until we got organized and with 20 of us, we managed to kill all his toons. First time I ever saw a multiboxer lose.
They “harvest” rare mounts, pets and drops. The list goes on and on. With one stroke of their keyboard, they have 5 times the herb/ore/chance of drop that an ordinary player has. Would I like that? Who wouldn’t? But it is sanctioned CHEATING. It makes me sick.

wrong.
‘cheating’ is breaking the rules set by the maker of the game.
The maker of THIS game says MBing ISNT cheating, so your assertions are faulty from the word go…sorry.
Its not even ‘unfair’ given that ANYONE who plays this game can MB themselves.
IF you were being prevented by some outside force from MBing then someone else might have an ‘unfair’ advantage.
Since that aint the case…sorry but it aint unfair…or cheating.

Uh…yeah…and 100 players farming the same thing would have the exact same effect as 10 MB’ers running 10 characters each.
And is it any less humiliating to lose to 7 players with 1 druid each?
Probably not.
then go play some other game.
7 accounts is 7 accounts is 7 accounts.
One player…or 7…its all the SAME, sorry to say…and why Blizzard isnt calling it cheating.
Frankly, I just dont get the complaining.
do people think they have some RIGHT to make a butt ton of gold farming what they WANT to farm, lol?
sorry but it dont work that way anywhere, ingame or in life.
You go where the money is.
By the complaints of some, I guess I should just invest in ONE thing in life and hope it pays off instead of what I do…invest in a lot of things and draw money from most of them over time.
Farming some mat works today. Tommorrow you’ll have to go do something else. I farm ores today, herbs tomorrow, mogs the next day, etc.
I farm MOP raids, classic dungeons and even for world drops that make me plenty of gold.
I dont sit in CURRENT content where everyone else is, lol, and expect to keep making a mint this long into the expansion.

Google the definition of cheating:
act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination
But you are a multiboxer and of course, cheaters never admit they are cheating. They don’t see it that way. One person picking/mining a mat 5 times over with one keystoke is cheating. Don’t care what you say, because you are the problem.

dont need to.
There is an old game called “illuminati”
One variant of the rules is ‘anything goes’…ie ‘cheating’ is allowed by that rule.
So the GAME MAKER DEFINES what cheating is, sorry to reinform you.
Unless BLIZZARD SAYS MBing is cheating…no, its not.
and AGAIN…MY MBing consists of ONE character sitting in the AH running scans all day and ONE character running around the world.
Sorry if that bursts your narrative bubble. I dont MB farm. Try harder next time.
Just accept the fact that your greed is the real issue here.
You want 75 gold per herb you farm (or whatever) and feel like its owed to you by some buyer on the AH.
Sorry if it doesnt work that way in a game or in real life.
The market will decide what your mats are worth.

Turning the conversation to how BAD I am is classic. You’re a cheater, you don’t want to admit it. It’s ok. Go on with your cheats, scam the system because nobody is going to stop you. But you are a SCAB on the system. CHEATER.

That’s right. Since it IS an allowed playstyle.
It’s posts like yours that show just how real scum handles themselves.
Blizzard allows multiboxing.
Blizzards allows /follow.
Blizzard allows third party programs.
Blizzard allows multi-tap nodes.
Good luck farming!

Just takes a little longer, just like the swarm of angry bees, many others like me in naj. It also takes YOU, the cheater longer, to make that gold too. I know your flight paths, I see you and I jump ahead and harvest. I refuse to buy any herbs/ore off AH. Bliz and I cannot stop you, but I will do my best to make the multiboxer, the cheater’s, life as difficult as possible.

were you going for irony LMAO?
YOU are the one complaining about others who ARENT cheating by the RULES OF THE GAME…while YOU are clearly demanding MORE gold from buyers than the market clearly is allowing.
You want to make more gold? Learn to play the game. you dont get to just demand that people pay whatever amount you want for whatever you farm for.
That would be the AH gougers who think they are OWED more gold per item than the market says they are…sorry

Thats a laugh. Youre one person. I have multiple accounts with characters all over the game world.
While I dont MB farm, I can be pretty much anywhere in the game by logging in on one of a long list of druids to farm any mat in the game…whatever is selling best at that point in time.
See, unlike some I understand that things change. Im not naive enough to actually think that Blood Stained Bone in BFA is going to be the top seller today…and tomorrow…and next week…and next month.
No…I go farm OTHER things when one market bottoms out and I dont waste my time screaming about those ‘cheating’ MB’ers who arent cheating unless the game maker SAYS they are.
Do you know what they don’t do? They don’t see something as an exploit and then come out in writing and state specifically that it’s allowed.

heh…good point.
Their calling it an exploit is both pathetic and laughable simultaneously.
How is blizzard going to stop me from having 5 accounts in the first place? Do they KNOW there isnt FIVE people in my place here who all play WoW together?
The chaos that would surely come from trying to weed out who is MBing versus who has numerous players living in a college dorm all playing together would certainly lead to bannings of thousands of innocent players…and all to serve the interests of players crying because they think that other players owe them more gold for the mats theyre farming, lol.
Yeah…its no wonder blizzard isnt calling it an exploit or doing anything to stop it.
7 accounts is 7 accounts…one player or 7…its all the same.

Well, it is nice to know how you view the game, as well as others who play the game. You consider them beneath you and you think yourself superior. The multiboxer.

Wrong, 5 accounts played by the same person while gathering is much more efficient then the same number of individual players. Those individual players aren’t hitting the nodes at the same time so are despawning nodes much more frequently.
