There is no need to ban multiboxing, they just need to make changes so it isn’t a viable option for gathering, just like they made changes so multiboxing is not viable in battlegrounds anymore.
Exactly right, I check out nazjatar regularly, and multiboxing has made herbing for single players nearly impossible. I don’t even want to monopolize it or sell it, can’t even get enough to use for myself because of this.
I could be a douche and join the crowd and multibox also, but I rather have an MMO with a real economy and viable proffessions, not what we have now.
going for irony again?
if anyone is looking down on anyone here its the complaining AH price gouger who thinks their game time is worth more than everyone elses.
and multiboxing has made herbing for single players nearly impossible.
nonsense. The timer on the node is EXACTLY the same if one player hits it before you…or 100 do. It has ZERO effect on you being able to farm. This aint classic.
Well seeing as multiboxers were patched out of battlegrounds there is hope that they will be patched out of gathering. Then you will have to just make do with the resources from one account like all normal players do. it won’t be so bad, once the market adjusts, gathering with one account should actually be more viable to making money.
I regularly check Nazjatar, and it is nearly impossible, and im not even trying to get enough to sell, its hard enough to get enough for personal use. Nobody is trying to gouge prices, the market is being unrealistically tanked due to multiboxing, and fixing this would allow prices to normalize. It not only ruins gathering, but also affects prices of the items crafting from those resources.
You mean like how when Malseph was using 40 dks in AV and Blizzard kept stating in the forums and in replies to tickets about him that it was allowed, but then soon afterward they patched it out of battlegounds anyway. Just because the act of multiboxing is allowed does not mean they will tolerate all the abuses of it.
So remove the ability of following a character and that should make it extremely difficult for the cheating multi boxers since they have to tab to each character to move.

dude…I run the AH on my server. I KNOW what I see every single day with players trying to overprice everything on TSM to drive the server prices up. The two week averages are absolutely being driven UP by gougers. I see it myself and its precisely why I use the regional data for my listings instead of the realm data.
MB’ers have absolutely NO effect on you gathering a node…sorry but they dont.
I ran into a MB about a year ago in MoP content. I was farming the exact same nodes he was without ANY problem whatsoever.
Lets at least be accurate with facts if we’re going to make this a bigger issue than it is.
They should do that but they also have to remove the ability to control all instances of WoW with one mouse. Or they can make all gathering like fishing, make a bobber that moves around randomly that you have to click, and make it move differently for each character trying to gather.

The game makers rules dont define it as cheating, therefore it isnt cheating and all the droning on otherwise doesnt alter that fact, sorry to say.
Blizzard aint going to change it because its not in THEIR interest to do so…or in the interest of AH BUYERS either.
This is how the market works.
If you want to make gold, go farm something else for a while…or just do the easy thing and flip.
Just because the act of multiboxing is allowed does not mean they will tolerate all the abuses of it.
‘abuse’ being what? that you got beat in PvP by multiple accounts?
20 accounts is 20 accounts…one player or 20.
it won’t be so bad, once the market adjusts,
adjust to gouging.
yeah…dont see blizzard letting that happen given how hard they tried to STOP the inflation this expansion, friend.

It will be when they lose people that are actual players in the game to point all that is left is the bots then they will say it’s cheating. Multi boxing is a unfair advantage over one person using a single account and you know it but you are hiding behind na na blizzard says it’s not cheating.Go back to single server with one node tap and the problem is solved.
Show me a team of 40 players that queue up on their own and all happen to be on their unholy DKs, and that can all disease their target at the same time and you might have a point. Blizz obviously agreed it was abuse otherwise they would still be allowing it. He was achieving a level of coordination no team can match, especially pugs.
He was also making it difficult for other Alliance players to get into AV. Blizz obviously realized that many individual players rights to enjoy pvp mattered more then 1 single guy with 40 accounts.

oh please. Keep that dream alive. Its more entertaining for me and others listening to the pathetic screams that are obviously going to be ignored.
MBing ISNT cheating and it ISNT a problem as far as farming goes and we BOTH know it. it has no effect on the node timer.
As far as the market goes, EVEN IF it were driving down prices, KUDOS…mission to lower inflation accomplished!
Next…
Show me a team of 40 players that queue up on their own and all happen to be on their unholy DKs,
so your crying is about being beaten by 40 dks and it REALLY makes it more insulting that its one player instead of 40.
that makes a lot of NONsense, quite frankly.
whatever you know it’s lame bs and no single person should be able to get 5-10 times the mats to a single user account.
Blizz obviously realized that many individual players rights to enjoy pvp mattered more then 1 single guy with 40 accounts.
I dont remember saying that there is no way for anyone to grief another player in this game…MBer or otherwise.
If 40 players did the same thing, same results.
If ANY behavior is causing other players not to be ABLE to play the game, then that behavior…MBer or not…needs to be punished.
Ive NEVER had a MBer cause me problems.
Single players killing quest NPCS over and over and over for craps and giggles…see it at least a couple times a month.
If you loath multiboxers so very much, you should not be investing your time in the game. The founders 'boxed. And when I say “boxed”, I mean in a major, major way in EQ.
Your game was created by “scum”, as you would frame it. >.<
