They won’t make exceptions bro , face the music.
This is Blizzard , they are rock solid in their decisions.
I’d be fine with the idea IF we give every single other idea a place too.
You allow one server for “just this one thing” then you have officially caved and now any other “just this one thing” can go to.
That aside, provide statistical data showing that a multi boxing server would gain Blizzard any income. Theoretically your idea works, a place for multi boxers, but in practice I’m pretty sure multi boxers pay for accounts with gold. That leaves two options for gold, one selling to players and one farming greys or something.
In the first scenario, if it’s a world of multi boxers then it is unlikely any of you would have need to buy from each other and thus the economy would be full of suppliers and little to zero demand. Unless you think several thousand people will legitimately pay for at least 5 accounts with real money then there is no income to be had.
In the second scenario, all you would have is insane time played metrics. Hypothetically, let’s say you farm out gold from greys to pay for 5 accounts, then Blizzard is still making no actual money.

If you are arguing under the assumption that all people on this server would pay with real money, and tokens banned, well then of course it seems like an ok idea, but again data needed. Could be very likely actual players are too low to justify this.
Just seems hard to believe there is a large enough base that isn’t using it for abuse, because everybody thinks their community is special and deserves the special server.
Long post, bust basically provide the data showing it would make a significant amount of money and compare accounts on this special server to what is on actual servers.

Both are cheaters but at least botters didn’t pretend like they’re not a cheater.

Good luck op. About the only way you will ever be able to use software to multibox in this game again is when it pretty much becomes abandonware, and they get really desperate to get people to play it lol. It would just be added server maintenance for them also, if they made a server, or servers that allowed it. And have a feeling there are not that many folks who do multibox to make it worth the investment.
Who would buy the tokens on this realm for the cloners to pay gold for?
I look forward to the day Blizzard decided to actually take action against bitters.
So a closed group with hyper inflation on their Ah.
Once your server name is known you will be dog pilled in every group you join via cross server.
Damn had not even thought abought token being region wide.
While thinking this is a bad idea for so many reasons this argument style does a disservice to your own stance.
I remain amazed at the number of people that clearly had the “I’m gonna stand here and hold my breath until you give me what I want” tactic work for them when they were kids.
If such a server were to be fully carved off with no currencies, un soulbound items, cageable pets, …must be more stuff, allowed to be transferred off then.
Who cares? Not gonna happen IMHO. But as a theoretical let em play as long as they don’t affect the broader player pool.
I care because it’d be dev time wasted that would be better spent on literally anything else.
Dev time? Like wasting dev time to try to FIND multi boxing?
All they have to do is take one of the numerous dead servers, pick it to allow multi boxing, allow free transfers off and just not look for multiboxers. Lock it like MG or WrA. Maybe even just label it an RP server…
It actually cuts the amount of dev time being wasted on trying to fix a problem that doesn’t exist.
I mean I do realize Blizzard is an indie startup and is completely unable to do what an indie startup like Daybreak (or whatever their name is today) can do.
I guess WoW never became that EQ killer that everyone claimed it would be if a studio with say 20 people can do what thousands can’t…
Custom servers would be a HUGE benefit with very limited dev costs. Same with just fresh servers for Classic, TBC or Retail.
let them do it, but no crossserver functions, no transfers and cant buy tokens from the AH, that way it wont affect anyone else and wont be a heaven for goldsellers.
ill be hiperinflated but let them have their fun
Funny how everyone talks hyperinflation but fail to explain how. If all the multiboxers are EXACTLY what the haters say, you will have either a MASSIVE oversupply and prices will be low or the multiboxers that only do it to make gold will avoid the server since they cannot make money there.
What am I missing? How will a server full of multiboxers flooding the market with mats cause hyperinflation?
Blizzard is using the warden to catch offenders so how would your idea work?
Unless the ban is fully automated, and it doesn’t appear to be since from what I have heard here on the forums, the bans go out in waves, it looks like there is an actual review of the data.
Just ignore server name “whatever”
I saw people say they got warnings immediately for starting “known” mirroring software, so it would seem that parts of it are automated.
Again, I couldn’t prove anything either way since I read it on the internet.

As somebody on the rp servers they are linked to other rp servers. Also no. Go be a loser multi boxer somewhere else. We’ll all still drop chests infront of you herbs and report every single multiboxer we find.

I feel like it’d end up the same way twink queues did, basically dead because most twinks don’t want to play against other twinks but instead dunk on levelers all day. Some might multibox for the playstyle but just as many came for the advantages over normal players (particularly in PvP).
