It's unfortunate that people can't run their mega-fleets of 20, 30, 40, 50, or more accounts with the same efficiency as before, but does anyone really think that that was CCP's intention when they designed the game and allowed for multiboxing in the first place? Smaller fleets will likely go unaffected by this change if you're willing to put in a bit more effort when playing.
This. CCP doesn't want to remove all multiboxing/isboxer people from eve. Let me explain this very simply.

1 click/button press = 1 action = GOOD
1 click/button press = n actions at the same time across many accounts = BAD (this is what way it used to be/is now)
1 click/button press = n actions over a period of time across one OR many accounts = REALLY BAD (this is called botting).

Do you see the difference? CCP has no problem with us multiboxing, they're just tightening up the 1 click = 1 action. This just means that running absurd amounts of characters gets increasingly annoying, and that you actually have to put some thought into a good dashboard/videofx setup and not just blindly rely on broadcasting and perfectly copied eve account settings.

Very minor change, with not much effect on most of us. If you're running 40 chars, well fuck, you'd better take some speed, or you can just drop down to 20 accounts.
