Umm... sit around an LFG for an hour to get a single run, or do two or three runs in that same time frame? Hmm.... I think he's a little out of touch with what (some) of us are capable of. And just because it takes a little longer to gear our toons.... when you take out the "idiot PuG member" factor, you pretty much eliminate the gear deficiency.
Yeah, but using PUGs or bad players to make the point is exactly what people like Kaideline do. Her rationale for disallowing multiboxing? That it grants an "overwhelming" advantage in BGs because of bad PUG groups.

Any player controlling a single character who has access to a busy-enough guild will not wait for PUG groups to form. I play in a guild I helped start with RL friends and which we grew with people who became friends. I've played WoW since November of 2004 and have been in something like three or four PUGs. And I am not exaggerating. I *never* run PUGs. And I definitely progressed faster than I would have if I'd been multiboxing, since my friends play on pretty much my exact same schedule.

As for that thread, keep in mind that Kaideline is one of numerous people who has said that they will continue to beat the dead horse because she believes that if enough people complain enough times, Blizzard will remove multiboxing from the game just to quiet them. Any attempt she makes at showing that she is "coming around" to our side is likely to be fake. She tried as hard as she could to push the idea that if you consider it on a player basis and not a character basis, that it's hard for Blizzard to defend the practice, and would not accept Blizzard's point of view that it is the character that matters to them. She wanted to make it seem as if Blizzard was trying to hide from the truth by using characters instead of players. It's funny to watch her try and take the high ground by acting as if she's after calm and rational debate when she has threatened to quit over multiboxing in the past, and when she has proposed that people keep bombarding the forum with complaints in order to 'force' Blizzard to forbid multiboxing. It's like someone saying "Man! I'd shoot my mom in the face if it would stop multiboxers! Oh, um... I'd also feed hungry children if it stopped multiboxing! Yeah, feed the hungry! Right on!"
