Accounts w/ Different Names + Keyclone?

[Calx]

I am curious, people say that it's a 'sure ban' if you're multiboxing using something like keyclone + accounts with different names.

It's a "sure ban" when you use accounts with different names, particularly when you log them in at the same time. Keyclone has nothing to do with it.

What does have something to do with it is how often you get "noticed" by our friendly neighborhood GM. Ask a multiboxer how many times per session they get report threats and you'll get the idea why breaking the terms of use doesn't last long.

Neither this forum, nor Blizzard, supports account sharing. So I'd suggest you only play on the accounts you legally own -- which means those which contain your full legal name.

Alright.

Just seems weird. Even as recent as a few weeks ago, and as far back as a year or two ago, I've talked to GMs directly about my multiple accounts/characters and even mentioned the account names/characters, without any issues.

I created the accounts, I don't buy/sell/trade characters - I know that's a good way to get banned. (Or just a good way to get scammed!) I just didn't put my real name in them when I made them, which in hindsight was stupid I suppose, but it had never been an issue in any previous MMO and I didn't think it would be in this one. Ah well. (Maybe the GMs let me slide on them when they saw them because they saw the original account creation address/credit cards etc or something, but I'm not going to risk it with keyclone)

If I could fix it to change the accounts to my name now, I would. But I can't, so, oh well.

(In total I have four accounts, created by me, with different creation contact names - two to three are active at a time, sometimes four - and I almost always am at least dual logging. Just manually, not with keyclone.)
