So what is another game that is boxer friendly? I've just started and im wondering if its worth continuing even with a PVE focus. My crystal ball predicts /follow being removed for world, dungeons and raids as well.
Even your cheapest bot now uses mesh terrain to navigate areas. They dont use follow anymore.
I just tweeted all the CMs and Ghostcrawler I hope they respond... I think if they make this change ill just cancel, it seems aimed specifically at multiboxers. I know bots don't use follow, I work with a guy who uses one in BGs and to gather and he had told me it just runs him around and randomly attacks people.

I suggested allowing "que as a raid" (allowing autofollow) and "que as an individual" (not allow autofollow) and only pair against others choosing similar for battlegrounds.

When you start out your post with "As a 27 boxer..." you're just asking for trolls in the General Discussion forum.Originally Posted by Sam DeathWalker

If Blizz truly wanted boxing dead, why not go the GW2 route? Sure, some hardware boxers would stay, but that's a small minority of a small minority. While I'm sure Blizz knew this would break boxing in BGs, I'm guessing they did this to help (ineffectively) curb botting. If boxing wasn't the primary reason for the change, and it's ineffective at stopping any bots, and it impacts blind players, there is a chance they reverse the change.

Damn, commiserations to all the PVP multi-boxers out there. I can't really share your pain as I only dual-box pve, but I wonder how long until they break /follow in LFR, dungeons and the world itself?
Multi-boxing adds enough complexity to this game to make it interesting for me, at it's core WoW is very simple to master and I would of quit long ago if it wasn't for boxing.
Bastards, I was enjoying the game again too! Oh well, everything has an ending I guess.

Just canceled most of my team as all I do is PVP (not very well but I keep trying in Arena, BGs, and was hoping to try it in RBGs). Posted this on my cancellation requests:
"The removal of the /follow command prohibits me from multi-boxxing in BGs, and Arenas. I work shift so impossible to find stable players for teams to capping on my six to seven accounts."
GG Blizzard.
I just thought of something, I wonder how this will influence World PVP.
It might be interesting to see a few hundred of us boxers all take over every town, until we get /follow added back in. Have to get that honor somehow. A concentrated effort like that may just make them change their mind, and actually want us isolated in a bg or dungeon.

Actually, you'd just get perma-banned for "disrupting the game for other players" as per what happened to Swifty when he broke a server while hosting an in-game event.
