Hahaha my first encounter with a Multiboxing hater

[gitcho]

I get a lot of hate every couple days, mostly from those who don't know what multiboxing is lol. The most I get tho, is "why three dk and a druid?"

Lol then they inspect my toons and are in awe of my 5600 gear scores on all 4 and then they bitch about how boring but fun it is to heal/run heroics with me mostly because they really don't even need to be there and I'm tearing stuff up so well lol ahh the glory!

5600 GS x4 = raiding solo?

[Catamer]

one guy I ran into yelled "MULTIBOXER!" multiple times..... so I started yelling back "SOLOBOXER!" I suppose I could have yelled "douche!"

[ghonosyph]

@ gitcho, i raid 3 or 2 at a time, 4 at a time and one solo (ie my main) depending on the pug, guild, or friend group make up.

lol i've worked very hard on my dks, through boxing AND solo raids, my favorite was achieving a 10 man togc with 48 attempts left boxing my 3 dks lol lost the roll on all 4 trophies too >.< lmao

[SFbase]

I just tend to agree with the haters. That usually takes the wind out of their sails. I just say "Thanks for letting me know!"

[mmmbox]

once in my 1.5 years of 5 boxing have I run into a "hater" (poor choice of words)

"Hi Cheater, how does it feel to cheat?"

This was in nagrand when i did the nessinweary quests

I never said anything or replied i just continued on my way and thats it

Still have the screenshot of it

I have just started levelling my druid team and I was doing the Dolamar quests when some lvl 57 pally goes running past and /w me 'lol noob group'

so I sent back 'meh loser pally' and got called a cock sucker in return and put on his ignore list... so I switched to one of the other toons and tried talking to him again explaining that I was a multi-boxer... he said that as far as I was concerned, I wasnt showing respect to the game by multi-boxing and that he thought I was a no life loser.

So I tried to explain to him that there are some GM's who multi-box and were they showing disrespect to the game and he was like 'no... they have shown respect for the game by working for blizz'... so I asked him how, after levelling 5 solo toons to 80 I was showing no respect for a game I payed for to play and have fun... second toon on ignore...

So I switched to a third toon... and kept on chatting with him.

Explained to him a few of the reasons I have started boxing and then I hit him with one of my main reasons... 'That I cant be arsed trying to deal with crap pugs anymore' and suddenly he was all like 'If you had said that at the start, I would have behaved a bit differently'

So after a bit of effort on my part... someone who might have ended up a true hater has been re-educated about some of the reasons why we box and has a bit more respect for us.

After a little while you will finally get to the point where you just completely ignore the haters altogether.

Yea I get random hate on the semi-regular basis. I just /ignore immediately and move on. Besides I think it makes them more angry knowing I just doing give a crap what they have to say.

I've just started running random heroics with 3 of my locks (the other one I already geared up for solo play). I haven't had a single complaint so far. Even when I popped into occulus the first time, they were more curious how I was going to do it.

I guess the Cyclone battlegroup is more enlightened. I've only had a few haters and if they make the mistake of coming after me in /bg or another global channel, they get shouted down fast by the everyone else.

The worst I've had are the people that criticize my decision to spend the ungodly sum of $60 a month on this, because that's just stupid, right? That crowd is pretty easy to laugh off. They lack the imagination that anyone could be beyond minimum wage or allowance money.
