The game that Team Wizzy popularized and demonized Multi-boxing in, where he used it to great effect, especially in RVR, has officially taken an anti-multiboxer stance.

According to Todd Grupp, Senior Manager of Customer Service for Mythic Entertainment on the Camelot Herald:

This behavior has always been a violation of DAoC’s Rules of Conduct. Specifically, this breaks rules 13, 14, and 16, which I’ve included below. I’ve been playing DAoC since launch, and I’ve been a part of CS here for six and a half years. We’ve been aware of multi-box teams since their inception and have received player feedback regarding the issue since that time. Where the change in our stance as a studio has come into play:
  • Clustering has increased the contact rate of players in the game world.
  • We now have technology to determine whether a set of characters that appear to be played by one person is being controlled by multi-box means.

CS does not warn, suspend or terminate an account for the use of a 3rd party program or hardware without being able to detect it on our side, no matter how sure we are of what we visually verify. When asked by players what exactly a violation of these rules would be, our CSR’s are instructed to advise the following:

  • “One keystroke should only perform one action, on one character, on one account. Anything which is used to circumvent this would be a violation.”

It's certainly the game where I got started dual-boxing. I find it pretty disheartening that as more MMORPGs are released and accept (if not embrace) the multi-boxing concept, Mythic has chosen to specifically deny it and ban for it.
