I think I’ve seen like 2 multiboxers in the last 6 months compared to tripping over them in BFA before the policy changes.
You don’t need 5 computers to multibox

farming will still be faster by 10 fold. PvP shouldnt have every allowed keycloning in the first place…and Im very pro boxing, lol

90% of what Ive seen since the changes are bots. Tons and Tons of bots. Never saw many at all UNTIL the changes

how. exactly?
Bots are still rampant…and this doesnt stop anyone from boxing and farming. Just makes it slightly slower. Not that big a deal to farm boxers literally at all.
And the way to make gold ISNT farming mats…its flipping them on the AH.
that and farming pets and mogs.
You’re trying to rationalize the efficiency of MBing with the complexity of setup and no one really cares. Your arguments are akin to trying to convince non-religious people with religious-based arguments. It’s a non-starter. They don’t care. They see the end result of what happens when droves of people flock to the MB scene to line their pockets with gold or farmables and they think it’s bad for the game. That is where the conversation starts and stops.
I seriously know like maybe three or four other people who run more than one account at a time, and like me they mostly do it so that they can play two characters at a time in RP.
This change might take out a handful of people who were legitimately gathering and farming on their multibox accounts, but 99.997% of the flocks of Boomkins that you see out there were fully automated, were breaking the rules then, will keep breaking the rules now, and don’t care about the accounts that they lose when they get reported because they’re run by goldfarming companies.
I just wonder who people will blame next when this change doesn’t get rid of those bots at all. Hopefully the goldfarming companies which should have been the focus of their ire all this time, but I’m sure people will start clamoring for a change where you can only have one account at a time instead, which also won’t do anything about the bot farms.

Bye bye extra accounts

actually where it starts and ends is “ANYONE can box”…there is nothing ‘unfair’ by default where anyone is permitted to do it if someone else choses to and you dont.

lol…like the idiotic and pointless Loot-a-rang change that apparently didnt do a thing to slow bots down. It may have actually made them change tactics so theyre even more obnoxious since the changes.

I would not equate multi-boxing with liberty.
I will however add my hands to the “thunderous applause”

This change does not make Multiboxing against the EULA .
“yet” lmbo.
We’ll see how this goes. Death by 1000 cuts, Im betting.
Doesnt affect me. Boxing is too much work for my liking anyway.
Wonder how it’ll affect WoWs (not Blizzard as a whole) bottom line in $$$ earned, lol.

Whats hilarious is that I just casually browse these forums and noticed that she is the ONLY Activision supporter in EVERY anti ccp thread.
Glad to see that everyone else here noticed this clown too.

Ok.
That doesn’t change that prior to the software ban it was not uncommon at all to watch 5 druids fly around picking herbs all the time. You and your friend aren’t the target.
Oh I agree on boomkins for sure, in fact I haven’t even mentioned them. The herb druids? Absolutely had a portion of actual players doing it. People advocated for it on their youtube channel on how to MB farm herbs.
And now in SL I don’t see 5 druids running around. I see druids with hunters on their back farming herbs and I know those are the bots for sure. I tend to report other druids based on name, gear, and how they move.
Bots are never going away, it’s a constant battle. Blizzard could certainly do more IMO, they seem to be terrible at managing them, but even if they were better at combating them it wouldn’t really matter. You’re not going to make them give up and stop, it’s a job to them. They’ll adapt and make it work somehow.
That’s a neat argument, but it’s moot considering Blizzard continues to effectively break MBing.
literally lmbo dude…I NEVER once used anything but in game macros to box with.
Sorry but the argument stands.

Only if you believe people should be allowed to dump money into WoW to make them better off than others. As far as I’m concerned I think the less money we can hand over to Blizzard to give us the leg up the better.
Good, glad to see it go.
And what’s wrong with boxing? I understand if you’re intimidated by your lack of skill in pulling it off. You’re still going to die in PvP, you’re still not going to get KSM, they’ll still make hand over fist compared to you on the AH
This doesn’t actually stop legitimate boxers. It’s just an annoyance. It’s going to affect botters more than anything. But whatever you have to do to feel better about yourself
