So you’re admitting that you know the difference between automation and replication, but you don’t care, and you want Blizzard to change their stance?

You’re arguing in a dishonest manner then.

Yes it is identicle, maybe that is why Acti / Blizz doesn’t have any issue with multi-boxing. Especially when people try to muddy the waters up by trying to say there is some huge significant difference in game results if it’s five people playing five toons or 1 player playing five toons.

There may be some differeneces, but there are always going to be differences because not every situation is the same.

That would be like saying a five meme spec team should be able to do 5 non meme spec content and saying, “Well they are five players, so there should be no reason why they can’t.” It’s just silly to think that they could.

Ive seen it before. It’ll take me a few to make the connection…but I’ll figure it out.
I remember seeing that first page.

Let me explain why Activision Blizzard really doesn’t have a problem with it: $$$$$$$$

This reads exactly like an advertisement using negative publicity to generate clicks. Gross.

I agree with the message though.

Even if that is the case, they are a business that is all about making money, the are not a charity site last time I looked into it.

Assuming it’s about the money though, why are they going on bot banning sprees though?

It’s a problem when all these gold are selling in facebook exchanger groups instead of tokens.

Imagine using failsbook in 2020.

If people want to bring up the money aspect of Acti / Blizz

I ask them to join me in a crusade of sorts.

This crusade is to done a single task.

Fight so that if people use the AH, they MUST sell for vendor value and not a copper more.

I haven’t used that thing much in the last 5 years.

That place is just a toxic mess I try to avoid at all costs.

Does a player press each key for each action? Well then there you go.

Also, why don’t you link for the thread how long ISBoxer has been around (and thus Blizzard has known about it). (hint: https://isboxer.com/wiki/FAQ)

It’s not.

I’m not arguing that automation is bad, that’s a given.

I’m saying that any program that replicates, duplicates, automates, clones, any synonym of any word that describes the actions of a program that allows you to instantly interact w/ multiple instances of the game client should not be allowed.

You want to multibox? Click into each separate window and interact w/ each separate ability.

That’s all my argument is. Being able to interact w/ the game on 5+ characters instantly is what bothers me, it’s what I consider P2W, it’s the only gripe I have w/ multiboxers.

The basis of automation (for Blizzard) requires two factors:. 1) A player must make a keypress that causes one action in one instance of WoW, 2) The player must be present at the keyboard to make that keypress.

Boxing software like ISboxer does not break either of those rules.

I can agree that boxing can be abused by some player’s, but that is no reason to condemn the entire playstyle.

One of these things is not like the others, one of these things ain’t even the same…

Go learn some definitions please, otherwise, you’re arguing from ignorance.

Jesus god no I’m not. You’ve literally seen that I know the difference between the two, I’m merely mixing the terms to cover all my bases when it comes to MB software.

Each and every person here crying in defense of Multiboxing gets more hung up on that word while ignoring literally everything else.

“It’s not automation” is a dishonest argument if you continue to willfully ignore every other point made against multiboxing software.

I do not care if it’s automation or not and it doesn’t change my opinion if Blizzard considers it automation or not.

This, right here? Proves that you don’t know the difference.

Oh wait, you DO know the difference. So you’re being dishonest then like I said before.

It isn’t. Equating “replication, duplication, and cloning” with “automation” (please look up ALL of those definitions before you respond) is a dishonest argument because one of those things is NOT like the others. AT ALL. And that’s where YOUR argument fails horribly.

Edit: Also, I’m done here, because you’re determined to go around in circles.

You’re wrong, Blizz says you’re wrong, and that’s the end of the argument. Period.

This. This is the part you seem to have trouble reading.

Frankly you can do a regedit for the exact same effect, thereby skipping all of this pedantic nonsense, and I would still consider it bad for the game.

multi botting is still botting regardless of what anyone says.

That’s fine op. Folks will just start using KVM switches you can buy off Amazon, and Bestbuy, or any place that sells computer stuff. And that is all key copy software is just a kvm switch that is software not hardware. What are you people that constantly whine about something folks have been doing since 2004 going to do then? Start protesting places like Walmart, Bestbuy, Newegg, etc, etc, because they sell switches that do the same thing as the software :laughing: You guys are almost as whiny as the LFR spammers.
