I've been software multiboxing for about a year now, and lately its really piqued my interest. Like every other newb, I constantly run into problems or think of questions while I'm eating dinner with my children, which brings me to this post. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who takes the time to post macro's, strats, guides, stories and everything else. With a little work, and a ton of trial and error, I've been able to get myself up and fully functional, and most importantly I'm having a blast.

Multiboxing is simple in theory, but complex in practice and I wouldn't have been able to do it without the guidance from this community. Please, keep posting your hardware reviews, PTR reviews, FLT guides..and ect. This place is a fantastic resource for a really exciting hobby.

Furthermore, I recently started a multibox guild on Grizzly Hills (Boston Server, EST zone) if anyone could care to join up, please lemme know.

Yep, I second that. Awesome community and soo different from most other WoW forums.

All we can really do to say thanks is to post when we have answers to other's questions and help out where we can. Not sure anybody can give as much as we all get from Dual-boxing.com, but we can try. :)

yea, Boston!
Location: florida mostly

Howdy, neighbor ;) I grew up in RI, cawfee milk and Rocky Point FTW! Now I live in S. Florida...nothing FTW down here except the lask of snow. I didn't mind shoveling snow. Falling down the icy steps a few times a year, well, that's what I don't miss.

well.. shoveling was my winter replacement for mowing lawns for spending money. sometimes i would go out and just shovel for hours before coming home (better then working @ BK). towards my senior year in high school, everyone got plow guys so it really ate into my spending $$, just when i needed it for gas and beers (grr). [re-reading this... pretty funny combo, but that's what we mostly spent our $$ on]

the biggest pain was shoveling the family driveway if the plow guy didn't show on Christmas morning. 200 ft @ 7am before guests arrive... oh yea, that was just wicked awesome

do kids still walk around shoveling in the winters for $$?

as for S florida... where abouts? i'm over in clearwater (mostly :D)

Meh, I didn't shovel much, just helping to dig out my parents' cars after the plow came by and burried them. What I always dreaded about winter was "The Wood Pile". My family heated with a wood stove, so we always had to go out and chip logs off the huge {frozen} stack of wood in the front yard. And of course, we also had to move and stack the wood there in the first place. Soooo Little House on the Prairie, no? ;)

I haven't spent much time up there since I moved to Florida a decade ago :P It doesn't seem to snow up there as much as it used to, but when it does, it's lots of snow. After I moved down here, my folks moved from North Providence to Pascoag {boonies!}. Everyone has a plow. I think it's a quota that one person per street must own a snow plow, hehe. Everyone is also really nice around there, usually the guy with the plow or the neighbor's kid comes by with the snow blower to dig my folks out for free.

When I first moved down here, I lived in Bradenton. Now I'm on the other coast in the Ft. Lauderdale area. My grandparents and great grandparents wintered in Clearwater, I've heard it's nice over there.

And do you know how long it's been since I heard "wicked"??? rofl!!

And do you know how long it's been since I heard "wicked"??? rofl!! i figured you'd appreciate that :D

and yea, clearing the woods behind the house was the weekend work during the fall. drag, chop and lug the wood to various piles under a tarp to dry out for next winter... then get the dried stuff and lug it into the basement for the coming winter. (we lived on a few acres next to conservation land... so, plenty of trees and creeks/swamp to play in).

i moved out of MA after college and worked in no. VA/washdc for about 10 years (dewey beach rocks!) before moving to FL.

i could move back to no. VA area and it'd still be like my old stomping grounds... but i'm not sure i could go back to the Boston area. too many memories and no one left in the area that i remember (afaik). i DEFINITELY miss the summer/fall... my favorite time of year up there. drives to NH or VT, smelling the fires going, and finding some out of the way diner/clam-strip-place to grab a bite.. just don't have that in FL.
