Ill Informed Player on Multiboxing

[drarkan]

Encountered a player, he followed me for a bit, i assume to write a report on me, who then later told me I should be careful not to get caught multiboxing since its illegal. After I told him its not botting which is illegal he said that blizzard deemed it botting now since MOP and illegal, so I linked him to http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/7320082291, which was posted 5 days ago. He didn't reply after.

Best way to deal with tards like this is to educate them, most of the time they are reasonable and don't give two hoots, but in cases like this, they're either too young to know how to read, or older and when reasoned with logic, tend to freeze and not know what to do lol.

I get whispers like that all the time. I don't bother arguing with them or reasoning with them. They say they are going to report me, I just say "OK" and move on.

Many just don't understand the difference between multiboxing and botting. People also tend to believe that everything they don't understand themselves how it's done must of course be illegal.

That poor fellow is just ill informed in general.

I normally do not respond too hate whispers anymore either. The other day I was PLing one of my RaF teams at the famous spot in deepholm. I was staying on one side and someone was on the other. It was going great! Then some mage comes and starts running around my side spamming arcane blast. I whispered her to please respect that I was there first. She said she has no respect for botters. I noticed she had a friend/alt hovering above getting PLd. I said I'm not a bot.. I'm boxing and PLing my alts like you are. Bla bla bla...same old responses . I'm reported..bla bla bla.. So i got my team of mages and park one in every spawn spot and spammed arcane blast for about an hour..the winch never did leave lol. But I'm pretty sure her exp per hour was less than 10% of what it was before i did that. That was a low for me.. but she pissed me off lol.

Lately I have been getting the same thing in RIFT, strangely only from Defiant players.

Not sure about WoW as I never had the issue of being harassed but in RIFT if they do not leave me alone and continually /follow me and spam duel requests/whatever else they can do to annoy me, I just report them.
I then get a ticket response from Trion saying "we hope we have resolved the reported issue to your satisfaction", which is usually followed by an apology from the offending player.

If don't annoy me too much I basically say the same thing as Nightsham and / or "Good luck with that, please let me know how that works out for you."

I can't remember the last time I bothered to reply to someone accusing me of cheating. It reminds me of the guy from the Matrix when he looks at the screen and says, I don't even see code anymore. I have filtered my chat channels so I miss all the /say /general/ /trade /emote crap.
