Just responding to hostility in kind. Maybe all you pro-boxers are one guy, since boxers are more likely to alt hop. 
Naw, just shows you failed to present your argument. You obviously never presented a paper and had to argue something in front of a group. Responses to look it up and passive aggressive insults usually are frowned upon in academics. Even though this is not that setting, the rules for a civil discussion still apply.
The number of threads…EVEN IF it WERE a lot…is irrelevant.
We’ve had four or five made in a single day, dude…and they were all being posted in by a FEW people who represent less than 1% of 1% of the total player base, LMBO.
Lets just call it 100,000 total players.
there are less than 10 in here whining about boxing.
You think blizzard is even paying attention to that? LOL
Like I said…IF this is the problem YOU claim…there should be tens of thousands of reports and complaints being lodged in game DAILY over it.
sure guy…anything you say 
I’ll be watching.
Who’s having issues with comprehension? I’m not arguing a point - multiboxers being a taint on the game is an opinion. I’m not trying to convince anyone of that one way or another.
I, instead, have offered a compromise. A suggestion. I have no position to defend. The existence of the threads is proof enough that people want some action taken on the issue. This seems like something that would satisfy both groups, a middle ground between “do nothing” and “bam them all”.
maybe we are.
Still waiting for all those players to start reporting boxers in game and get it banned like a decade ago.
…tick tock…tick tock…
its the same argument every time anyway, lol
“muh hates competing for resources”
and demanding they are OWED gouger prices on the AH.
If its so bad for the majority of players…why hasnt bliz banned it years ago?
You are EXACTLY arguing a point. You want to isolate multiboxers to one server. Asking for a compromise on a public forum ALWAYS is inviting a debate. My comprehension is just fine. If you wanna offer suggestions to the devs, use the in game tool if you don’t want public comment.
Apparently thats not the only thing that does, lol.
Having to share resources and not being able to price gouge seems to be another trigger.

Most people come to the forums to complain. Very few come to post that they like something. So your data point still points to anti-multiboxers being a small minority.
There have been quite a few threads created by characters who claim to be new to the game yet have already mastered all of the anti-multiboxing talking points.
Op,actually that’s a good idea. Place them all on there own shard to do what ever they want to do ,frees up nodes and even ganking .

Your straw man is as bad as your grammar. I don’t care about multiboxers, because I don’t farm anything. I buy tokens and buy herbs on the AH when I need to make pots.
If anything, players like me BENEFIT from multiboxers. I still consider them scummy cheaters, but to be clear, every assumption you’ve made about me and my motivation has been incorrect.
Because multiboxers pay Blizzard lots of money.
I mean really? That’s your question?

Your compromise only works if we accept your position that multiboxers are a problem that needs to be solved.
Then why are you even posting anything? If you have no position to defend, then that means you don’t have any opinion on multiboxers. Which means you wouldn’t be posting about a compromise for something you don’t care about at all.
There are easily 100x as many threads about flying but we’re still stuck with Pathfinder.
Which is overall a microscopic fraction of their total income. Activision-Blizzard makes billions of dollars a year. They could ban multiboxing tomorrow and it wouldn’t even register on their bottom line.
Someone actually did a cost analysis based on available data. The amount of money mutliboxers bring in is chump change to Blizzard. I’ll see if I can dig it up.
One multi-boxer, even paying $600 per month is not statistically significant. In one month Blizzard’s income is in the millions. World of Warcraft has millions of players. If that player stopped playing all 40 accounts it would barely show on either their income or the number of players.
All you have proven is that they pay for a number of accounts. You have not proven that Blizzard allows this because of the money.
Even if there were 40 multi-boxers with 40 accounts each that is still only 1600 accounts and $24,000. That is still not statistically significant.
Anyone using money or number of accounts as an excuse is being distracted by the numbers. $600 a month only seems like a lot if you yourself are only paying $15. Someone playing 40 accounts seems like a lot because you are only playing one.
Let us use the 4.5 million number that gets mentioned when players talk about the number of active players, and a single 40-account multi-boxer.
The multi-boxer accounts are 40 out of 4,500,000.
The income, assuming all the players are paying the standard $15 per month, for 4.5 million accounts is $67,500,000. The multi-boxer is only $600 of the $67,500,000 brought in each month on subscriptions alone.
Yes, it would. Money is money. Companies don’t give away free money.
And? All that matters is if Blizzard believes they make more money by leaving the status quo than they would gain by banning multiboxing. The degree of money is neither here nor there; money is money.
And you people keep arguing it’s the main reason that it’s being allowed…
They ban actual cheaters quite frequently. So again, it’s not about the money. It’s never been about the money. That’s just a lame conspiracy theory cooked up by people who can’t handle that multiboxing is allowed because Blizzard sees it as an interesting alternative way to play the game.

And? All that matters is if Blizzard believes they make more money by leaving the status quo than they would gain by banning multiboxing. The degree of money is neither here nor there; money is money. It costs money to implement the change, and it costs money from the lost multiboxer accounts. It doesn’t necessarily gain them any money to do so, because for that to be the case they have to quantify how many people actually left as a result of multiboxing and how many of those came back.
The main reason it’s being allowed is because the cost-benefit analysis of changing the status quo isn’t worth it to the company. It’s not only the main reason; its the only reason.
Cheaters, by and large, make new accounts when banned.
And yet they ban the hell out of bots which costs them quite a bit.
