I think that it's pretty interesting that people take the word of just one poster on (of all things) the WoW forums.
Then when it's regurgitated enough here then all of a sudden it must be fact! Unless you've (not you Babysir specifically, i mean in general) seen for yourself the things that have transpired then you should avoid passing judgment on someone.
Already another boxer on Prepared's realm has voiced that what he sees Prepared doing isn't consistent with the complaint on the official forums.
I thought we all knew better then to take anything on the WoW forums at face value.
I love the smell of electrocution in the morning!
I don't think people are taking the word of one poster, I would hope not. Personally I have not seen him do anything, and you have a point, it could all be a lie. However, this isn't the first post about him, I have seen close to a dozen if not more. In all those posts, it's always different people saying the same thing. If it had been one individual saying it then obviously you would have to take it with a grain of salt, but when you have several people from the same server saying the same thing you have to consider the possibility that it may just be true. At one point I even saw a video of him doing that same thing, just walking in an killing the alliance npc's inside buildings that may be AH, vendors, or quest givers. This is the video I saw, which lends some credibility to those that are claiming he does these things http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyTC0...eature=channel
I thought the discussion had morphed into a general discussion of asshattery, not any specific person. Was I wrong?
Now playing: WoW (Garona)
I think peoples definition of being an asshat is different causing most of this conversation to be hard. You got some people who believe pvping in any way (the act of pvp itself) to be asshats. You got some people who believe multiboxing ANYTHING is being an asshat, and you got some people who don't think any of that is wrong.
I could basically sit here and say that all of you are hurting the multiboxing community by being asshats because you multibox during the hours of 7-10pm servertime during the busy parts of the day so people see you and bring attention to multiboxing which I only do 2-3am in the morning.
Also, I got a dozen people on my server who would gladly call any one of you an exploiting asshat that's ruining the wow community having never met you. Doesn't make any of it true to anyone but the person saying it
Since the nature of the conversation is one based heavily on a definition of asshat, i would imagine half the people are are talking about one or two people they don't like under the guise of "asshat", which confuses the rest of us.
I think the point of this thread shouldn't be to talk about what we believe is asshat behavior or not, but rather what blizzard determines is detrimental gameplay. In this case from the original thread on the forums, I have to walk away with blizzard will continue to allow it - if not encourage it to a certain extent.

I can see why he is in AV 90 percent of the time cause once I get my new Pal to 40 Ill be in AV 99.9 percent of the time .....
(I just hate playing one toon at a time (but I also hate being in AV without a tank and my main is to high for most of my others .... )) and I hate Horde noobs that dont understand you take LM, BS and Farm to win in AB (and stay away from stables and mine).
I can't even touch an enemy AH at this time ....
Also if these QQers were on Sullon Zek instead of their care bear bluebie wow server they would have quit in 2 days. One guy Speedd trained the whole neut team that they couldnt raid for weeks lol, the whole TEAM couldn't raid, 1/3 of the server got shut down by one guy basically.
If you sign up for a PvP server expect some PvP lol ....

I am sure that camping the AH wouldn't be a regular occurrence. How fun would it be the 10th time?? I'd probably get pretty bored of that myself. Once in a while to stir up some shiat, but other than that...meh.
Of course, I wouldn't have the patience to run 40 toons anyway.
Personally if I had 40 toons I'd make a 'once-a-week city siege' server event with me trying to storm a city of my choosing. I think it could be fun with people trying to stop me and all.. almost like those rare Bliz spawns in the city.
I remember when Sam and Prepared (the only two "Massively Multiboxers" I know of) arrived on this forum. When asked why he would want to play 40 characters now that there is no such thing as 40-people raids anymore, Prepared replied that his goal was to raid capitals just by himself.
Well, he levelled his army to 80, and he is raiding capitals by himslelf, and I'm sure he's having fun doing it, which is why we all play games. Congratulations, period.
