I would think it would have to be legal, and that GM's just need to get the word from the higher powered employees.
Tons of people used to do it on Everquest1, Samsoul who is a member of this forum did it for 3 or so years on sullon zek on everquest, although he used a hardware solution it was the same outcome -- sync'd characters.
I think the main thing is innerspace... once thats out of the picture everything should be fine.
LOL thats gold!Quote:

I may have to consider boxing EQ2... Was always a pretty fun game for me.
On the off-topic topic... Eteocles, don't say "we" when you were pretty much the only person calling her out. And I do remember you distinctly using some foul language. Maybe a "I'm sorry" e-gram is in order? :D
Concerning Hardware Multboxing Everquest 2 it was acceptable in the past when I asked about it. Of course they can change their policy when ever they like.
Here is an PM exchange I had with Moorgard at SOE:

From: Targ To: Moorgard Date: 08/24/2006 16:22:54 Subject: EULA question I have a question concerning the EULA, I hope you can answer it for me or direct me to a source for an answer. I have been a Everquest2 play for quite some time, I mutibox several toons. I do not farm plat. I do observe play nice rules and never mob steal or other wise make a nuisance of my self. Recently I have been considering the use of a wireless keyboard connected to several computers. This would input keystrokes on all computers at the same time, but in looking on the forums and the EULA it is not clear if this is allowed, and so my question.
Is the use of a wireless keyboard connected to several computers a considered a violation of the EULA?
Thanks for your help in clearing up this question
So I think if SOE can be made to understand that keyclone is the functional equivalent of hardware multiboxing and has no automation in it, (once they get rid of inner-space) it should be ok.Quote:
