Prepared is no more - New Multi-Boxing maximum is 24 characters

1) Blizzard doesn't have a special team combing through millions of accounts trying to connect the dots between who's allowed to have more than 3 BNet accounts and who isn't.

No? I was getting the feeling that the entirety of Blizzard was just one sadistic, anti-social Scrooge McDuck dude sitting in a tiny room pouring over account information trying to see how many people he can piss off {and how much money he could throw away} by randomly issuing bans and closing accounts.

Well that escalated quickly.

We'll see what happens, not much else to do but wait and see if anything DOES happen.

The change just amused me... and the only person I know who does more than 3 bnets was prepared. Mirai is right, it effects <1% of everyone... but part of that 1% is hated by a lot of people here lol.

Tons of people still use separate bnets, if youre not interested in mounts or pets or heirlooms it arguably ideal. Especially if you do PTR (since its one PTR account per BNET) and the get Diablo for free per battlenet was nice if you are into that game.

I don't think people hate prepared, he is a troll, but he is harmless and fun.

So they can do it, but probably wont do it retroactively unless its causing a problem and somebody complains? Someone has probably complained about lag from prepared by now.

How may I assist you today? you: hey you: about the new TOS thats poped up on the battle.net serive you: That only allows a single person to log in from three (3) battle.net accounts you: or own 3 battle.net accounts i have about 6 or 7 in my name you: just asking whats going to happen to them XX: In all reality, I doubt anything will happen. That said, the End User License Agreement update doesn't actually take effect for just over another month, and I'm sure there will be some clarification from the Developers or Community Team before then. you: ok, am a mutiboxer and as we been hit by follow in bg;s was thinking maybe your after us again? XX: I very much doubt it, but I am sadly no Developer. you: ya just asking don't want to be made what acconts i have to keep and if you know whats going to happen to them as i nerver seen a accont be deleted a lot off mine as old dead acconts but i have more then three thats all you: well i can hope they give us some more info soon. XX: Indeed. As I said, I can't personally see this as being something that would actively be enforced, but that's my own opinion - we've not heard anything internally about it. you: ok that was mine and other Point off views on it as well, I think it might be something do with players buying up the new free 90's from WOD and moving the chars making big clean up after you guys. you: for* XX: I'm sure there's a train of reasoning behind it, far above my paygrade likely though. >_> you: true many thanks for you help today :0 XX: *bows* I will thank you for taking the time to chat with me.

This is the latest response from Customer Support:
Greetings,

I hope that I was able to offer a little comfort during our chat, despite not having a definitive response to your query.

I'd recommend keeping an eye on the forums for any announcements regarding the EULA update.

[Sam DeathWalker]

I think I would be the only other person it effects I have 28 accounts on 6 bnets but of course I could go down to 24 on 3 without any really big loss; actually would gain some mounts and titles lol.

If they enforce it then its way in my advantage cause my guys have better gear then prepared and Ill be NUMBER ONE!

Not really holding my breath though as I think those who argue that it won't be enforced have the better of the argument.

The sky is falling... Blizzard is out to get us...
Kind of a funny thread.

lol, it sure is funny to watch the failboat teeter-totter now that we're not on it.

[ebony]

your forgetting one thing perpard buys his chars so I bet there not all in his name away

[Baltyre]

I'm not playing it anymore but i have 4 bnet accounts with a diablo 3 account on each.
I think this is a big problem for all diablo boxers.
