I dualed boxed, then triple boxed before I went all the way up to 5 characters, and there were a multitude of reasons why. The first was resources.

I had to buy a 2nd pc before I could move up to 3 toons, and while that machine is not all that great, it is fairly stout. Considering it was bought with the sole intention of multiboxing makes it truly a luxury purchase. Some folks can't afford to do that, nor can they afford to pay for anything above 3 toons a month. Maybe they can afford to but they don't feel like it.

Also, what if someone doesn't have the desire to play more toons than 3? I have a coworker that was the loudest about giving me shit when it came to multiboxing and now he plays two chars and swears he'll never go past that but who knows? I'm sure there are other folks who are of the same mindset about playing anything above 3 chars.

Playing anything above 2 toons is not for the faint of heart. It takes a lot of work and commitment, and with every new toon added into the mix there is even more work that needs to be done. I KNOW there are people out there who don't want to work that hard at putting all this stuff together. Lets face it, to really be successful at this it takes a bit of planning and configuring.

Whenever I see a multiboxer, whether they're playing 2 toons or all the way up to 5, it's almost like they're an instant friend. I salute, wave, dance, bow, applaud, kneel and anything else I can think of just to try to engage them. They're part of the multiboxing club. It doesn't matter to me if they occasionally do it, I'm truly happy to see em.
