Man its great to see how active things are here.
I mean when I got here, there was about 2000people registered to the site now there is over 12,000 members.
Awhile back, there would be about 3 pages of new posts in about a day for me, now there is 7.
This is great stuff. I am glad to see how the site has grown and all the helping that hs been going around.
Keep it up everyone.
Haha, yeah, I just registered but I love the discussion around here and the general knowledge of the community at large. This is way better than WoW forums!
I've learned more about the game in a week here than I have learned in a long time.
I attribute the success to our moderators and flaming lazy posts. We don't have to be PC like Blizzard. These are the best forms I browse.
what are you talking about there are no lazy posts... oh i need to make a post about RAF, i don't feel like search for one. :PQuote:

I've read the forums here for a long time, but just registered recently when I had some questions. This is easily one of the best WoW forums around.Quote:

It's not just here. I'm seeing all sorts of people multiboxing new groups on Mag lately. Seems like the RAF stuff was exactly the incentive people needed to start.
I always wanted to do it, but learning how to make it work gave me a headache akin to having to study for school. The RAF thing basically was the push I needed to sit down and read about how it all works. Not nearly as tough as I guessed it would be.Quote:

Back in my day, boy, there were only 30 people here and we dual-boxed with four hands, uphills both ways, on a 4" monocrome monitor, and we were happy to get 5fps on a good day!
Hehe, it definitely is nice to see how much the dual-boxing community has grown more than anything else :).
Yeah, I would definitely attribute the dual/multi-boxing growth as of late to the RAF. RAF in theory is a good way to get a friend to play wow, but minus the friend it's the best way to get started playing with yourself -- wait that sounded wrong. You know what I mean.
and yes, this is my fav. wow forum.
This is definitely the case. I started boosting my team in SM and when I popped out of the instance with my 70 paly and 4 warlocks to reset I saw another 70 paladin with a couple priests that were clearly boxing. I've seen two or three other teams in the past few days. When I walked back into Cathedral in perfect sync I got tells form the other team asking how i did it. He wasn't aware of the site and was boxing the OLD fashion way of using a keyboard and mouse for each computer. I hooked him into the site and after a while he was setup with whatever software package he picked and was so glad he ran into me. I actually appologized stating that I was sorry for the addiction that he was about to get into. 8)Quote:

The site has definitely grown quite a bit I agree, a lot larger than I ever imagined :) It's so big trying to make backups / uploads has to be done via command line or in chunks! haha
That being said I would love to see the stats before the announcement was about made RAF then about a week after. Not saying I do not believe you. But it is a great observation and a well put point.Quote:

Admittedly, I've been in the lowbie zones a lot more this week as I've started new groups, too. /shrugQuote:

After messing around a little with the 'two wireless keyboard interfaces, one keyboard' system for my two accounts the RAF promotion made me seriously check out multi-boxing. The RAF and Keyclone are why I'm still here (and working on leveling my team). Together RAF and Keyclone really lower the degree of difficulty of getting into multi-boxing.
To some extent. If you're new and have no 60+ toons to bankroll you, it hurts because you outlevel your gear and training fees so damn fast. :)Quote:

Yes! While it's great to try out MB with a trial account and the RAF the trial account toon is severely hamstrung by not being able to receive gold from an older toon for training fees!Quote:

I've been lurking for a while.
I must say the search feature works GREAT here, unlike other forums.
So there was really no need to register. But I finally have.
I've been trying to dual box for a while, just to do dailies and stuff. But now with the recruit a friend deal, I'm kicking it in to high gear for WOTLK.
You guys are great, keep it up.
*Wyolars crawl back in to my cave*
you had a monitor? when i started multiboxing here... i was using 5 line printers and a printer switch box..Quote:
