    Now I am not out to bash Fat Tire as he/she is a fellow multiboxer and alot better at it than I am for sure. I understand where they are coming from but this quote pretty much sums up all the stuff that was in trade chat, though in much friendlier text.

    Call it educating, helping them see how stupid they are, whatever you want but the fact is when I see stuff like this I feel sorry for the individual who is "calling others stupid". Especially when they are in such a glass house themselves.

    The stuff about "you could have given that money to charity" was also there but when its coming from a poster on the message boards from a level 80 it really starts to negate the value of the statement.

    I just don't understand.

    We are multiboxers and as such are, or should be, used to others reacting with with disdain and as such hopefully more respective of others with play styles different than our own.

    It happens all the time, but from other multiboxers? Really?

    Pot and Kettle.


    As far as it ruining the game because now Blizz is going to start selling off items and other such stuff... Blizz is going to ruin it or not ruin it regardless of our input or lack of it, actions or lack thereof. They are a business and that's the bottom line.

    Lineage I loved but its economy eventually got ruined. I left as alot of people did but they are, still there, still picking up new players. Not like they were at one point but they didn't die by opening their doors to a bad in game economy.

    I guess what upsets me is instead of harping on other players for not having the play values, why don't these people use their time to actually do something that might have an effect and put their passionate speeches in letters to Blizzard instead of harping to those who really don't care to be nagged at.


    I purchased 5 of these mounts and the pets for two reasons:
    1. They go to every character I make on those accounts from now on and ...

    2. I mainly did it to annoy the crap out of those people who were screaming at other people who just wanted to enjoy something new.


    I am not mad that someone doesn't like the actions of others, even when those actions don't hurt anyone. I am upset that they are so short sighted that they think constant bickering, name calling and bad insults are going to change the values of those they are screaming at.
    I mean seriously? Are you joking? You're crying all the time. What makes you think I want to enjoy the game the same way you do...I'll just end up whining all the time like you.

    I was under the impression most multiboxers knew better but I guess that was my own shortsightedness.

    Its a game you pay to play, enjoy it however you want and to hell with what others think until they are paying your bill.

    Luv's

    Well it's complicated but here's the up and down of it: When you can spend money on taking a woman out but you don't and THEN YOU SHOW HER YOUR MULTIBOXING SETUP. She'll go nuts and hump your multiple screens.

    I haven't bothered to read most here, but i guess this hasn't been posted yet.

    Greedygoblin posted an interesting post about the mount:
    No, I won't write about the horse. I wrote everything about it when the equally useless pets were sold. I wouldn't waste another bit on it unless almost everyone on my bloglist wouldn't write about them. There are so many posts that I can't link them unless I make a 2 pages long list and miss half of them.

    So the question is: why do bloggers (mostly intelligent people) care if Blizzard rip off kids and idiots? The money and the dumb will be separated, period. OK, RMT was a new thing in WoW with the lich pet, worth discussing once. But why again? Why bloggers create megabytes of QQ about it?

    Because even in the most intelligent people there is a little piece of social. And it hurts socials bad if the Joneses have something they can't afford. And none of us can afford a celestial horse, not because of the 25$ to pay, but because we know it's stupid. If you buy it, you feel stupid for wasting money for an imaginary horse, if you don't buy it, you feel bad because the Joneses have it.

    The only solution for a social is decrease the item's social value: "only stupid kids have it". This way it's no longer something that the Joneses have, it's something like fleas or dirt on the clothes: "shame on the Joneses for having it!"

    While this is the most advanced thing a social can reach, I'd suggest a much simpler solution: don't care about it, or at least act like it. Don't post about it, don't inspect the owner, don't click on blogposts talking about it! The sparkling pony changes your gameplay exactly like Samantha Swifthoof. She is in the game, but no one ever mentions her.

    I guess if Blizzard would announce a Samantha Swifthoof companion, the socials would swarm to grind for her or pay $25. Good for Blizzard!


    PS: and please stop writing "Blizzard is evil for X". Blizzard acts completely automatically, responding to customer requests. Blaming Blizzard is like blaming the knife for stabbing. Blame the guy who held the knife, blame the customers!

    This thread has run it's course. Lets all remember, one of the rules for this community it to comply with the ToS/EULA with the respective games. If you want to do things outside of the ToS / EULA of a particular game, that's fine. Talk about it elsewhere. Frankly, I don't really care but this rule is in place to ensure the multiboxing community isn't looked at negatively.
