Why is Multiboxing allowed in game?

Seriously… BEFRIEND A MULTIBOXER! They are such an awesome asset to have.

:star_struck:

A multiboxing thread! My favorite!

:star_struck:

Nowhere near impossible! Much less efficient though but the rewards you’re thinking of would be the exact same without third party software

It’s a rare occurrence to run into one. How can this distract you so much? Just move on and play the game.

So what? Money is practically useless unless you’re paying your sub with it. People still manage.

Money. Freedom? Stop trying to control everyone.

I’ll be their friend if they throw some of their disposable income my way. I don’t come cheap ya know. :wink:

because forum moderation allows spam in here but gets their panties in a bunch when we make a thread about being willing to pay real world $$$ to buy a trinket this pathetic joke of an RNG game refuses to fork over after 6 weeks.

And, depending on who they are, they might!
Mine does. She’ll also run me through anything that she and her 7 accounts can, if I ask.

Takes the bait

There is a search feature. If you really want to know why, please, search the hundreds of threads already made on the subject.

Have a great weekend :grinning:

I look forward to a fresh multiboxing thread everyday :slight_smile:

:rofl:

The oldest thread on multiboxing I could find was from 2007! That’s 13 years of digging, that hole must be fairly deep by now lol

I’ll direct you to my old faithful list of blue responses

https://blue.mmo-champion.com/topic/38904-multiboxing-rules-and-semantics/

It’s got responses to the most frequently used multiboxing arguments including “Third party stuff” “automation” “botting” and “blizz only allows it because $$$”

HI!!!

I’m actually impressed when I see people MBing 3+ characters. I would go insane trying to run that many.

I don’t think it breaks the immersion anymore than seeing a large gathering of people going on the warpath.

Ok, but it might be a possible benefit to the community as well. If they are able to farm more and are putting more stuff on the AH. That means there is more stuff for people to buy and if they are selling their stuff cheaper than other people.

That just increases the buying power for peoplepeople. Especially if you have people that love to charge insane prices for mundane things. People are allowed to charge whatever they want and I see nothing wrong with people charging less than the competition.

There are a couple of reasons in my opinion.

  1. It could be that it’s still money in their pocket.
  2. It doesn’t violate anything that they consider to be game breaking.

Not always, there are free multi-boxing software as well as just using hardware to multibox. When I multi-box I don’t use any third party software and I do well enough.

The programs just make multi-boxing easier. They are not needed to multi-box.

For possibly the reasons that I and others have mentioned perhaps?

This again. I’m still waking up.

20 boxers are super rare unicorns. You’re lucky to come across one they’re so rare.

I’m going to see if I can find the SFA post regarding multi-boxing. From what I read, simply having multiple accounts or multiple World of Warcraft windows running at the same time is not a problem. What IS a problem is using any form of program/keyboard binding to use all of the avatars simultaneously. So again, if I am recollecting that rule post correctly, anytime you see somebody running a syndicate train of avatars that all mimic the prime user, or even act without the user directly interacting with that particular avatar (botting), then that is a violation. By the way, if you really wanted to know, you could post this in the Customer Support Forum. That is where Blizzard employees interact with players, not in the General Discussion tab.

Blizzard has said software that transmits keypresses to multiple accounts is fine so long as it’s one keypress per action per account.

I learned this on accident one day. I did a search for something and responded to someone and a blue responded to me :open_mouth: First time ever, and someone used that same acronym “SFA” and that’s when I realized I had goofed and strayed out of GD :rofl:

Is this your setup Jingyia? https://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/eve_multiboxing_1.jpg

Pretty much. But maybe the reason is to give players the illusion of a functioning market.

No, mine is a lot more simple.

That is CRAZY :rofl: but if you like to multi-box and it works all the more power.

Imagine living in a world where pressing one button, and casting 8 abilities is still one press, one action.
