that guy you posted in the video is part of multiboxing.com same with the software.
Am not going to go into it here but he owns and makes the software so he has to make it look "good" if not noone will buy it. The other thing you never see him playing any class at very close to level cap and he always plays chars where more or less you can spam a few keys and the same class! BIG THINGS in this.
leveling two the hardest classes to try and mange procs on is not going to be easy. so dps could be a prob unless you start using 2/3 step setups that you can not do with his software.
anyway good luck with your group.

Well, most people here don't use 3-button spam, they use 1-button with random other buttons for other stuff. I'd suggest you start with the newbies guides in my sig and look at the MoP Macro Library thread and the other posts in the Macros and Addons forums. Multiboxing is easy enough to start just spamming 1 spell to level, it's a lot more work to actually be good at.

In Pwnboxer, Tim uses the term Round-Robin to both refer to a Round-Robin and to Key Re-Mapping.
Which is kind of confusing, since those two features are drastically different.
For everyone else...
A Round-Robin (RR) is where you push one key and it outputs to Toon A or Group A.
If you push the same key a second time, it outputs to Toon B, or possibly Group B.
If you push the same key a third time, it outputs to Toon C or Group C.
Once you've reached the last toon for the output, pushing the key again outputs to the first toon or group of toons.
And...
Key re-mapping is where you push a key, and a different key is sent.
So your hot key might send "1" to some characters and "2" to other characters.
The basic idea for a rotation is going to be either alternating between keys, where you have a rotation that will not freeze/lockup on one key and procs that could lockup a rotation on another key.
By alternating between the two keys, procs fire off almost as soon as they're available and the rotation never gets stuck waiting for a proc that has not randomly become available.
Another approach is a priority.
This is having each of the abilities you would like to fire off, each on its own key.
And then having each of those keys sent at once, as the output of a single input.
You're at the computer, and in control at all times... there are no delays or loops involved, so no automation.
Tim considers this kind of thing to be automation, or potentially so, so you won't be able to execute a priority type DPS with Pwnboxer.

I play 27 characters at the same time, with 6 different classes.
And, believe it or not, Im the guy that invented focus fire (using one key to cast a spell on 2 or more characters at the same time).
Isboxer is just plain superior, currently.

I am also coming around to this viewpoint, although it is currently perfectly legal.
Nonetheless the IsBoxer step system will do everything you wish, legally, you just have to press the key more often.

June 27, 2001 the day Sullon Zek went live was the first day someone (me) hooked two computers to one keyboard for the purpose of controling two accounts in an mmo.

Just because you can't find someone else out on the internet with the audacity to claim that they were the first person to do this same thing, doesn't mean you were the first to ever accomplish it.
We're all being trolled by both the OP and​ Sam in this thread -- 2 for 1!

Im the first person to provide proof, valid on its face, that I was the first.
Thats called a prima facia showing.
Burden of proving me wrong now shifts to whomever claims my claim is wrong, its not up to me to prove that no one else did it before me.
Obviously someone had to be the first, and if no one else has proof otherwise then clearly I am the first.
Also as you can see from posts in the 2002 time frame no one, in that time frame, was claiming they did anything similar, nor had they heard or seen anyone else do anything similar.
If it takes audacity to make such a claim then clearly the claim is of some importance and if someone had done similar in that time frame they would have stated so.
reading over that 2002 thead:
Although I have those 6 toons, I only have 4 computers and can only play 4 at one time.
dang things sure have changed ....
Man I was a hoot back then:
Ya there are only 3 rulz on Sullon
1) You let your guard down for a second - you die.
2) You Attack anyone with Sam in their name - you die.
3) You log in - you die.
Welcome to Sullon, enjoy your stay.

Funny how this thread started with a question about a function turns into one's claim to fame :p and the debate thereof

Heh: "Eventually, months and months after most of the server that had started at the same time as him got to 60, he got to his 50's."
I see that some things haven't changed all that much.
