Multiboxing politics.

Bugger is basically loosely translated british for "Fucker" or "Fuck" lol, e.g; "Bugger off"; same with "sod", "sod off, wanking sodder", etc

Also, what IS your server so we know to avoid it? lol

Tried to recreate Mudd's screenshot... with two warlocks...

And well, I fail.

It just doesn't look as cool. Hmph.

"Bugger" originally meant to sodomize.

All the slang phrases with "bugger" in it is more in line with what Eteocles said.

It's always better to /ignore then say something back... unless it's something like "jealous of something?" or "My toys are better then yours" or something like that... and then immediately /ignore so that they can't even respond to it. 8)

Jadenar...avoid it like the plague. When Blizz offered free transfers off high population Arthas, I took it...and regretted it every moment. Have 3 teams...so, transfering not option...quitting (game) or that server is. I am more dissapointed in Blizzard then the idiots on the server. When you are 1 in 10,000,000....guess you should not expect anything. Still, to allow ingame 'stalking' but to ban you for words against stalker...well, again, its the 1 in 10 million thing. Their EULA gives them the right to do anything they wish.

I try to be cool with everyone, just ignore the insults and throw a heal to people in the field when you pass. For the most part I have more fans than jerkoffs.

Yep this is what I do too...

Cheers,

Howdy again.

Been multiboxing (5 alliance SPs) for about a week now and have been getting some pretty insane reactions on my server (apparently not many people are doing it) - they range from "that's the coolest thing I've ever seen" to "reported for cheating". Horde from BGs have rolled toons on my server to spam me with "welcome to your ban, hacker." - I've even had a horde roll a toon to say how much fun it was playing vs my toons. In general, most alliance have a positive reaction to the toons but there are those that stand around proclaiming my lack of a real life or that I have too much time on my hands (as if it takes more time to play 5 toons at once than one). Anyway, do you guys have a standard response to criticism or do you typically just ignore it?

As an aside, I guess one of the more frustrating things I've run into are the alliance pugs just following my toons around in BGs (especially AB) instead of actually trying to win.

I have this set as a macro set on my main char
/invite optimistics
/invite optional
/invite optic
/invite optamise
/dnd <big long im not a bot or hacker, links to my blog and dualboxing.com for more info on what im doing>
So whenever someone whispers me , they get a big massive spam DND message back in there faces. Be nice to them and tell them what your doing is legal and doesnt break the agreement because u press the keys which trigger ingame commands and then most of the time there sick of seeing your dnd message and shutup.

Thats a good idea, hmmm.

Any way to target the person and do like a /ignor? Might just add that as a macro for my char's.

I must say I was completely surprised by the reactions in game. Most are positive, surprisingly. But if I run into anyone, almost anywhere its about 6/10 that will follow me to try to see what is happening. I had a ?? hunter gank my lvl 30 warrior/3shaman group in STV. Then I rezzed, charged, and started nuking him just for fun. You could tell he was kinda baffled.. and after killing me once more decided to follow me around and pull mobs and watch me kill them while he emoted /cheers. It was pretty funny.

A question to you 5 boxers: do you always run with your full crew? Or will you pick up guildmates etc for fun? I guess I'm debating a 5th, but I'm a pretty social person and don't want to not be able to level with people. Any advice there?

[sparvath]

I am faily new to this Multiboxing concept and my 3x mages are only at 61 on Silvermoon EU.

I can relate to some of these reactions that you guys and gals have encountered but mostly the good ones. I dont really see other multiboxers but most of the reactions I have meet is positive.

Of course I have met the odd one that called me bot, hacker or the super intelligent that just spammed "wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" in whispers. I dont bother with ignores. I anwser those that ask, greet those that call me names and just use report spam if I encounter the rare one (used 3 times) that is beyond reasoning.

Howdy, I have been reading these forums for a while gathering all the knowlege I needed to launch into boxing. So I guess I should say longer time reader (troller) first time poster :P

This week I started 1 x Pally and 4 Shammies (I dont do anything in halves) and have totally enjoyed setting it all up and now have them all at lvl 10. I play on alliance Aman Thul PvE because thats where my main is and friends are, the only other boxer I have seen on my realm is my friend who dual boxes to shammies so I know its haerdly known about. Like Xeva, I am adjusting to the attention I get as I move around, I had one guy last night tell me its an unfair advantage and I should be banned. I guess you get used to this after a while and as elo pointed out, once you get 50+ I expect it will die off a bit because you will be more well known.

One thing I have found necassary is to work on my show off macros to impress all the on lookers. eg. Move into formation around my pally, drop totems, dance, laugh etc. I have found when I take the time to do this most people respond with "cool" as I guess they realise its not just a bot and a real person is behind it all.

I can imagine BG's will be a whole other challenge, although it will be easy enough to avoid too much attention AV

I plan to spend alot of time in instances as I level so hopefully I wont have to deal with this all the time.

Glad to see the alliance side is joining the game. I also play on Aman'Thul, about to ding LvL 58 on my 3-box Horde Shaman. I have set up a reply macro to tell people what im doing and were to go to learn more. Priceless.

See you around, Cant wait to take out another Dual-Boxer
