Hi,

I heard about all of this today when i was on my guild chat on Wow, I heard that some guy was running three shaman and going for a PvP arena team, i thought it sounded cool and so found this site while looking on youtube of all places and the video on the fron just made me want to try it.

I have been reading through the guide posted by piejoh77 and it's been a massive help thanks, I've downloaded the stuff and am just looking at how to set everything up. I did not realise that I would actually need separate accounts for each of the characters, i thought I would just be able to have them all on one account, ah well,

This did throw a spanner in the works however as I wanted to have three dreanie shaman but as i am going to use guest passes off my main I am going to have to go for troll shaman i think however I am going to look at a post further down about what type of classes work best, maybe warlocks.

This is not really a question or querry as such I just wanted to post on here and say hi and let you know what i planned to do, if I am wrong about the multiple accounts thing could someone let me know but I am sure that I am not.

Thanks for reading this and any comments and suggestions would be great, I will keep you posted on how I get on with it all. :)

Unfortunately you do need separate accounts for each character, but by the look of it you have been reading around (the whole trial account thing) so I'll simply say Welcome to Multi-Boxing :D hopefully you enjoy it

Does anyone else have multiple versions of wow on screens(S) or do you just have the main one open and hope all goes well on the rest.

I'm just working on my Macro's now found a good thread on this site again, its great thanks alot.

Hi,
a short hint.
I think it is better the have the main frame on the bottom of the monitor.
Why?
cause if you play only one char you look the most time to the spellbars and the char -> bottom of the monitor.

Its my feeling and maybe you disagree, but maybe u agree :)

I play 3 shamans on one biiiiiiiig 16:9 screen -> top left, top right, and the main on the bottom with an 221:100 :rolleyes:

I could not stand not being able to see the alts, always checking on them and doing things on them so i like seeing them (plus it looks cool :) )
