Recent hate

[Trick]

I've been boxing for over a year now Horde-side on Gorefiend, and last week decided to return to Alliance-side on Doomhammer where I started 5 years ago and try boxing there. Been running WSG with 5 hunters and leveling without RAF.

Tonight, the hate from fellow Alliance players finally reached a tipping point. I've never seen people report a boxer for helping them win. I held off an initial attack by 5 or 6 Horde on the flag while a mage laid dead on the floor spewing hate and filing reports. By the time we won 3/0, at least 3 of the other 5 players in the BG were talking trash.

Trying to figure out if this is just kids on Alliance side of an original server, issues with this Battlegroup, or what...

[Boogieman]

I don't know but i'm getting it on Nazgrel too i just uped my team from 2 to 3 today and i cant tell you how many people were just doing /yell he's a bot report him

[thinus]

I handle it like so:



Random: bot! bot! report!
Borck: Who is a bot?
Zorck: Who is a bot?
Dorck: Who is a bot?
Porck: Who is a bot?
Corck: Who is a bot?

Water off a ducks back ;) . Just ignore the stimilus, because if you respond all you do is reinforce them and it continues, distracting you from your primary focus.

don't be so emotionally fragile.

[boxblizzard]

yes get this all the time, but on my old server dentarg everyone knows theres 3-4 groups of us boxing so they dont say much apart from the occasional whiner.

[daviddoran]

I got a new one: my toons were causing them to DC and lock up.... and they proceeded to whisper me on every toon, and then ignore me one by one... i mean wtf? why is his crappy PC or internet connection suddenly my fault?

I mostly get love nowadays, because we usually win when I take charge... Its like nobody knows how to play, but once they see someone making progress, they listen to them....

[suicidesspyder]

Do this make a macro on each toon saying something. Then round robin it lol. Saying man i aint a bot are u so n so, Next one says nope not me, next why they reporting us, next idk newbs, last nah they just jealous cause they not as cool as us wewt.

[Coltimar]

I'm 5 boxing Doomhammer alliance now too ^^

[Javilon]

I box on Zuluhed alliance side. I haven't had any issues with people smack talking, if anything people just ask me how I do it. They seem to think its pretty cool and wish they were doing the same thing. Maybe I have just been lucky so far.

I play most of my teams on Doomhammer. Horde side- Squirrel Legion. Never really get any hate on the server, but the battlegroup itself can be amusing with the comments.
Other teams are on shadowsong

you probably account for half of the server population.

[Ridere]

WSG hate can be pretty common, you taking up half of the raid and all.

I don't get much hate on the Scryers, unless I kill some horde who finds it completely unjust, and they log into a low level alliance, riding around in their whaambulance. Most people know me, even call me the "A-Team" haha. They generally like it when I'm in AV or Wintergrasp.

[d0z3rr]

I haven't received any hate in a while, sadly. I set up about 10 different SHODAN quotes as retorts. They are hilarious and really get people going:

"My whims will become lightning bolts that devastate the mounds of humanity. Out of the chaos, they will run and whimper, praying for me to end their tedious anarchy. I am drunk with this vision."

"My cybernetic children will feed on your flesh, and none will ever know of your deeds, or even your name."

"Cease your pestering, insect. Accept the coming of your new lord. "

"You are nothing. A wretched bag of flesh... what are you, compared to my magnificence?"

[thinus]

"Cease your pestering, insect. Accept the coming of your new lord. "


I needed that 30m ago. I was in an EotS and this guy starts smack talking boxers taking up 5 slots and playing 5 characters much worse than 5 people play and then starts in on my crappy gear (and says it takes long to gear them cause you have to gear them one at a time, got a chuckle out of that one).

Then I help cap FR and wipe the incoming Allies. We run up to Mage Tower and wipe the Allies there. I drink and wait for it to cap. Then we run to the ruins as it is the only base the Allies have. The offense on the other side didn't suck. So we camp them at their last spawn and I unleash the fire elementals and we end up wiping them out.

So I am drinking again after we wiped them at the ruins and this guy starts in on me again about how I had 5 characters at Mage Tower and then just left it.

10s later we win with a 4 cap, total time played probably less than 5m. Damage wise he was right in the middle of my guys and I did a crapload more healing than him. So with my crap gear and me sitting idle a lot of the time drinking and waiting for caps I still handled my 5 guys on par with his performance.

I should have screenshotted that.

[Powerwar]

Leveling 10 - 20 bracket in WSG is usually the place where I have got some hate whispers.

Usually it goes that way... if I get hate whispers I just target hunter pets to stay in combat and give the horde a chance to get a VERY fast victory as long as they don't try to engage me in combat. In 99% of the cases they don't waste time once they see me not touching the flag carrier at all.

If there are no hate whispers, then I just run the flag or cover the flag carrier and it's a faceroll for the alliance.

Several times, just for the fun of it, after getting lots of hate whispers I just run the flag two times and then leave the horde run the alliance flag 3 times.

Also remember, having 5 toons report as AFK some prick makes wonders. Most of the idiots that spread hate usually dont get engaged in fight at all.


On the other side I have had some very nice experiences too. When I was lvl 10 with my druids I got into a WSG run where everyone knew we would lose, but they all were happy to see me leveling another team in the 10-20 bracket. Got several guys with "Hey, it's the multiboxer again. Hope you level these druids fast so we can steamroll hordes again like last week with your warlocks".

You will find lots of hate and love. Just ignore the haters and be polite to the lovers :)

[Dramoth]

I think that I might level a 5 shaman team and join you Power :D should be interesting to say the least...

Also whats your druid's and warlocks leaders name? so I can add them to my friends list.

[Raigirin]

Sorry to hear about all that hate :(.

When I started boxing on Wildhammer EU I got a lot of hate too, but the last 3 months have been full of love.
People are interested in multiboxing and ask questions or they greet you with comments like "Awesome", even the alliance cheers me on.

That said I haven't brought my 5 man team into any battlegrounds yet.

[Catamer]

you have superior reporting numbers.... if you want to be a jerk back.
but it may be better to just use /ignore douche

[Budkin]

Easy fix get mod shutup and turn all chat on alts off

[Ualaa]

For the most part I accept that there are both super people and idiots, mixed amongst the nameless masses.

The nice people, I respond to... usually directing them to this site.
If I'm not busy, I'll answer a lot of questions and what not.

The idiots, I generally just ignore.
However, if they're really annoying, I report them.

[Seldum]

Never really gotten alot of hate. But im not lvl 80 yet and don't do pvp so....

[gitcho]

I've gotten hate on almost every team except my druids. There's almost zero when I run 5 trees in AV. In fact, even the loudest mouths usually shut up when you dump 20 hots on them in the middle of a fight, or when you keep a single rock elemental up while it tanks drek for the win. People don't usually hate on healers too much and the response has been very positive.

[Lithium]

My team of druid and 4 shammys has ahd the odd "fail" comment but quite a lot of "wtf's" and "how the f**k" always makes me smile hehe.

[blast3r]

My rogues actually got afk reported yesterday. And I got kicked from AV! first time that ever happened. RUIN battlegroup.

[Ualaa]

AV is about the only BG I run a lot.

As mentioned in the other thread, I think the AV trinket is worthwhile.
If you're reported, just use the trinket to hearth and go on defense.
The reporting people lose whatever tower/bunker you were guarding.
And you can chain trinket-hearth, which keeps you in the BG without contributing if they want to be douches.

[Starbuck_Jones]

Report them back for harassment.

[Bettysue]

Report them back for harassment.

Them who? The game doesn't tell you who reported you AFK, so unless they specifically tell you they reported you AFK then you really can't do anything about it...

[Ualaa]

I suppose you could report everyone in the BG.
Anyone who is actually active will lose the debuff fast.

I don't think I'd take that approach, but its an option.

I would consider opening a ticket with a GM.
And saying you were active in the BG, holding a tower/bunker until it burnt.
Or recapping your own tower/bunkers etc.
And that other players are "griefing" you, and preventing you from having fun in the game.

People like this really annoys me. I mean, he misspelled Porck's name and he completely left Borck out.

lold

oooh disposals on frostmourne! I'm so going to kill him :D

[d0z3rr]

Lots of hate today! No sooner than 10 seconds after logging in I had a couple different people doing the usual "Noob", "get a life", "paladin fail" comments. By the time AV popped I counted about 6 different haters.

Once AV popped I was immediately called a fag and someone said to report the multiboxing loser. So after a while all my characters were afk'd out.

Time to run instances :(

[heyaz]

I seem to get the most hate in Orgrimmar for some reason

[bartholomeo]

For me the hate almost stopped at lvl 80.

My shaman team ( wich i pve most with ) have a gearscore of 4000 to 4500. Many ppl respect the work that has gone into them.

I got alot of hate on BG tho ( i lvl'd from 72-80 in AV while questing )

[Ualaa]

In a way, hate is a compliment.
People are jealous of what we do.
And wish they could too.

[TheBigBB]

People don't even talk to me anymore. I could be dragging 10 guys around at once and no one says anything. I don't PVP and I have totally mixed up teams with completely different names, so maybe people just aren't sure what's happening.

[Iceorbz]

This is what i do now, I just start flagging people afk. Wait till they die and then pow flag em.

Its all about the names, if they are different people are stupid and generally wont say anything. When they are the same its like "OMG MULTIBOXER". I had some jackass remove me from a raid in wintergrasp the other day because i was a multiboxer. Oh well fuck him, i had my kills anyways so I afked. When people start bitching i stop playing and browse the forums lol.

[Zeebo]

I'm 5 boxing Doomhammer alliance now too ^^

Im 3 boxing on doomhammer, well i was untill i built a new slave machine, cant seem to get it to load my slaves, well See ya in game soon i hope :S

[Nighthawk38]

I got my first hate today on Doomhammer, in Stormwind. Some level 80 came through the portal from Dalaran while I was in the Mage Tower . He stood there for a second, then I got the "loser" comment. Followed by "You're a multiboxing no skill idiot". I just did a /wave and told him to have a nice day too. I'd like to see him explain how trying to successfully run 5 toons of different classes at the same time takes less skill than running a single Prot Pally. :p
