multiboxing Poll from the community

If you guys havent seen this, theres a poll over at swtor forums about multiboxing

Meh, It's a horrible representation of the question for the poll, frankly people are right to troll the guy.

Poor to no explaination of wtf he is talking about. I would have issues on as a CM on the forums of him confusing people on the pricing of the game and its accounts.

His comparisons are about player cash and pvp kills, the most sensitive things to multibox haters.

Mentioning multiplexer software and its costs seems like a problem as well. More likely to confuse people on what is going on.

yeah, if you search multi-boxing on the forums, you get quite a few results, and all of them have derailed into a flame fest. there seems to be like 2 or 3 a month started up, and the trolls and kill-em-all's come flocking lol

I made a poll a little while back simply asking "What faction are you going to box, and how many" and set up a poll. I put in extra options for I don't box but enjoy seeing it and another for I don't box and think it shouldn't be allowed, in hopes that it would curb the trolling and derails. about 60% of the votes were against multiboxing, saying it shouldnt be allowed and the thread turned into a giant debate despite my best efforts to keep it on track.

I'm convinced that there are far too many kids playing MMO's these days who have yet to develop an appreciation for having a steady income. Not that I can blame the parents: MMO subs are a hell of a lot cheaper than other hobbies.

Yup, everyone has their thing, i dont drink, do crack, etc...i play wow, multibox and keep my ass out of trouble!
my wife likes it better than the old me who whould just call her on friday night and say "well, i'm headed to memphis to party" then show back up on sunday hungover as hell.
So yes i consider it a good thing i ONLY multibox different games, and do not get my ass into trouble anymore.

To the rest of the world, if you can't afford a 75 dollar monthly habbit, well...i just feel bad for you living in poverty. (sp?)
Thank you, that is all.

Pretty much this. ^^

I joined a new guild recently for the perks, and about 4-5 people just ask me how I can enjoy throwing money away or afford multiboxing.

My response was simply... anyone here going to enjoy Battlefield 3, Gears of War 3, Skyrim, etc? There was lots of "Yeah! I have that preordered!" and I was like... well there ya go. That's $300 worth of games I'm not going to buy so I can multibox for a few months.

The logic still fails on them as they still think it's just a "waste" of money.

Looks like a pretty old topic. I lol'ed at this reply on the first page:


while not "illegal" by any law, it is frowned upon and considered to be "illegal" by MMO Gamers. Most consider it a Sin
