Well, I got banned today, good-bye 4 mages, and mains. (Non Dual-Boxing Ban)

Question,

Did you use the keyclone software on your main comptuer at all. Was at any time you pressing one key on your GF's account, and it hitting your GF's toon, and the 4 mages?

This woudl be account sharing, easily detectable and an easy ban. You could have IPs all across the world, but if you're doing things at the same time with accounts that all aren't perfectly named the same, Insta ban.

Something smells funny here. I'm getting the feeling there's a critical piece of data missing. Not trying to insinuate anything, probably just a simple miscommunication.

@Vyndree

Superb thread you managed to deliver there indeed.

Seeing three different Blues (if not mistaken) jumping in under a supportive and friendly - sometimes even humorously teasing the non-MB crowd- was a refreshing and very pleasant read.

/kudos to you for delivering such an EPIC thread for MBs.

Should be on the GM Conversations wiki page already. I added it last night, I believe.

The software to get around the GCD comment is what they usually use when you program delays into macros (such as you can do with the G15) so that it casts as soon as the GCD ends by itself. Some also do this with a macro that repeats the keypress for the length of the GCD exactly, so that it will always cast once, as soon as possible, whenever during the GCD you press the button. (ie gcdgcdgcdgcdCASTWORKSgcdgcd and the cast can be anywhere in that snippet - it will go off ASAP and the gcd eats the rest)
It's not so much having no GCD, as being able to cast and let it wait the GCD out itself, without timing your key presses.
If that's what they meant then it is something easy to do, does qualify as botting/automation in many blue answers, and isn't doing anything that the server would prevent itself.

Ya... and that's most everyone supporting multiboxing, except the original poster.
If you post in that forum with a toon name & realm (NOT any account info), the blue's will make sure the ban emails get resent. They often clarify stuff too, if you really think this was a keyclone issue.

For some reason I enjoy reading this thread.

ok, i need to get some clarification on this so I don't get screwed up here myself. Should I call blizz and ask all this?

I have 6 accounts. I know, I'm kinda crazy but I can afford it... ( I remember being at an event with "Mr. T" one time, some guy yelled out of the crowd " Hey Mr. T, why you wear all that Jewelry around yo neck!?!?" Mr. T said in his gruff menacing voice, " Cause I can affode it!!!" , same deal )

I have one account that has been my main account for a long time, in my real name, that I play all the time, my main toon, nobody has the pw but me.

I opened another account, put it in my gf/fiance's name in the account info page, its her main, but I have access to it because I'm paying for it. Sometimes I log in to check stuff for her, I've never had a reason to play it for her although I might someday want to for some reason. Sometimes I would log in and look at her quest log to verify something I had a question about, or how her buttons were set, whatever. But its in her name, its just being billed to me. We live in different locations.

I have 4 more accounts I opened up for multi-boxing. They are all in my name on the account page. I moved my rogue from my main account to one of these accounts and gave that login info to her so she could log in and let her son play with us when I'm not multi-boxing with my other toon on that account. She does not give him the login, she regulates his time on the pc and the game this way. I am the only one that logs into the other three accounts to use with my multi-box team.

Now this has got me worried and wondering..

Is my account that is in her name at risk because we both log into it?
If I change the account info on her account back to my name, and she logs into it is it at risk?
Should I not let her log into my multi-box/rogue account that is in my name, is that at risk? If we wanted her son to be able to play at the same time as us, does he need his own account in his name?
Is my main account at risk because of these things?
