I couldn't agree with this more. While I can see Mickthathick's PoV, I've also had that rising tension in between my shoulderblades for the past few years as I see more and more people come in with bigger and bigger teams and attitudes of "I'm so gonna rape faces all over the place /spit /cry /chicken /lol"

Is it any different than your regular BG kiddies? Fundamentally, no. But we already have a terrible reputation as far as a lot of people are concerned simply because they don't like multiboxing. Period. In some cases Bots are viewed in a higher regard than we are because at least they make for cheap crap on the AH. And bots aren't going to fall for troll-bait like we do, which combined with some of those bad attitudes makes for a very loud and public squabble. Especially when some people resort to obviously spiteful, vindictive and disruptive actions to "protest" changes they don't like in "The Name Of Multiboxing!!"

We've always treaded a thin line, our increased and/or enduring presence hasn't made that line any bigger. It's just given a bigger target for people to aim at.

This.

All I feel protesting in a disruptive manner will achieve is Blizz changing the overall multiboxing policy and banning it completely and so the PvE boxing community also loses out. I realize they may take out follow for everyone at a later point but why give blizzard a reason to do it.

Maybe lax is right just joined a few av games and the "bots" that are now stuck at the gates at kinda funny to watch and then the automated software removes them from the game making it be like a 10-14 av game. some don't get suck at a gate but when they run of there route to kill someone they get stuck somewhere.


seems more bots used follow they we was all thinking.

if they wonted us banned we would of been gone. not at any point they said we will be banned in pvp.

If they said "we do not wan't boxers in Random bg's anymore we have removed /follow and if you get reported for being in the bg we will ban you from the game....."

they just said

"we removed /follow sorry sure u find a way u always do have fun "


as for refunds they have to refund if you do it with 14 days if the goods was not used. same as any shop (for UK laws anyway) even online goods i might go back to 3 boxing with the hunters (as the pets do a lot of the work anyway hehe)

You are part of the problem and not part of the solution.

Edit: Thinking about it again, as long as they bring back follow in arenas I will pretty happy with this change. Hate random bgs anyways.

I didnt attack anyone who didnt attack me first (up to yesterday), and I played my best in BG's, ususally being high on HK's.

Horde lost 9 out of 10 games, no matter if I played or not. And I never took more then 10 slots.

And I never win traded, I never disrupted game play, I never Corpse Camp, and still don't. I have never had an allience toon.

I earned all my in game things. So how so?

And for the past few years I have been very polite posting but how many times should I allow people to call me a cheater before I respond?


AV was my favorite part of the game but I will find world pvp with no problem at the world bosses.



One thing to keep in mind is that although from the forums it would appear that everyone hates multiboxers those threads are only getting views in teh low 1000's. Considering a 6 million actual player base we cannot conclude from 200 or so posters that we are as hated as it appears. Obviously the VAST majority are indefferent.

I forget, which battleground's objective is most HKs?

Also there were tons of complain against the person who is running a 40 man team and pretty much destroying world pvp and AV. 2 hours long av will piss alot of people especially if they loose. I am pretty sure it was brought to blizzards attention.

This could be solved if they allowed follow to work only within the same bnet-account. Then people wouldn't be able to multibox that many accounts. And bots wouldn't be able to follow random people neither.

I like that idea. Also if there was a comfirmation box to allow/disallow person to follow you that would also work.
