The number of multi-boxers is trivial. If you are a hardcore player you may know several of them, but in the grand scheme there are very few people really doing that.

I love how that guy put us in the same category as botters :(
I wonder if they've been using the merged Battle.net accounts to estimate the number of boxers?Quote:

Yeah how do they idenify boxers from regular players?
Do they just map us out from random reports and stuff, or how do they? Got me curius there
Eloxy
$sql ="select ACCOUNT_NAME, COUNT(ACCOUNT_ID) CNT from WOW_ACCOUNTS group by ACCOUNT_NAME";
$request = sqlQuery($sql);
while($RS = mysql_fetch_assoc($request)) {
if ($RS['CNT'] == 1 ) $singleBasementNerd++;
if ($RS['CNT'] == 2 ) $happyWowCouple++;
if (($RS['CNT'] >= 3 ) && ($RS['CNT'] <= 10 )) $boxer ++;
if ($RS['CNT'] == 31.54 ) $sam++;
if ($RS['CNT'] == 36 ) $prepared++;
if ($RS['CNT'] > 37 ) $botter++;
}
if ( ($boxer / ($singleBasementNerd+$happyWowCouple) < 0.00001 ) {
updateBluePost( "The number of multi-boxers is trivial. If you are a hardcore player you may know several of them, but in the grand scheme there are very few people really doing that." );
} else {
sendmail ( 'WOWCEO@blizzard.com', 'must nerf boxing' );
}
ok maybe it's more complex than that, but i reckon a/ it can't be too difficult to get some sort of idea, b/ any number they come up with will probably be wrong, but not by much that they need to worry about correcting it :)
With the hidden Blizzard spy cams that are everywhere...and the Blizz-sats that intercept our brainwaves and steal our thoughts...ofc!Quote:

...or it could be by doing a check to see how many accounts are registered to the same name coming from the same IP...but that sounds too far fetched to me 8|

They use out of work Russian remote viewers, it's how they catch botters too.
p.s. Always remember to wear some clothes while playing WoW, just in case it's your turn to be scanned by the Russkies
I would assume they just count anyone as boxer if they have 2+ accounts in the same name, Regardless if they really are or not

That blue guy is more than a plain old blue guy.

Lol @ query, and they prolly know exactly how many.
Tsk, Tsk.
You'll never have a cnt of 31.54 so $sam won't get incremented.
Shame on you :)
As an aside, how sad am I that I felt the need to debug joke code.
