Being called "cheater" constantly

[Braggon]

Hey guys. Iv boxed several other mmo's in the past and have never been called so many names as i am now in Wow. You name it( botter, cheater, sucker, loser-mainly because of paying for the extra accounts ) and the list goes on. Iv recived a few whispers stating" complaint registered" from other players. Its unbelivable! I have to sit back and laugh. Now i can understand if i was being a show off and going nuts in PVP but thats just not the case. I mind my own business and do instance grinding. Im afriad to see whats going to happen once i head to contested ares. hehe. Just curious how other handle this same situation.

well WoW is like... popular, let's call it like that. And remember it is *cough* 12+ *cough*... thats the reason.

Personally I am trying to explain people what is going on actually and have some fun conversation.

I've found about 75% people are cool with boxing (and sometimes want to know more), 20% are bemused and think its a little OTT but the final 5% for some reason get quite irate by the concept. Whether this is a lack of understanding or just a naturally negative persona I'm not sure.

The only thing I do is try and explain what I'm doing but once they cross the line I say may farewells, /ignore and go about my business. I did get quite annoyed the first couple of times but now it's just amusing.

I do have a habit of adding these folks to my friends list, not entirely sure why I do it but I guess its a case of keeping friends close and enemies closer ;-)

These would be the same people in my mind that are upset that people made 'pre-mades' in pvp and those pre-mades had tier 2/2.5/3 gear and worked as a team. Damn it he worked hard for his beast stalker!

Potentially also the same people that are under the thumb of a despotic guild and have little freedom or fun in the game. Being the 12th hunter in a guild waiting for the 12th Dragonstalker chest to drop on the 50th run through BWL. Or running through MC countless times for someone else to get a binding. Oh those were the days and likely those were the 120+ /played days that weren't always fun.

Then he goes to WSG and gets PoM+Pyro'ed x 4 in the face by four Warlord characters with non-sense names.

Well of course someone is cheating.

[Braggon]

Thanks for the response. I handle the negative feed back the way you guys explanied. I guess im just not quit use to it yet. I do feel better now though.

Um...unless I know them, I ignore everyone. They want attention, that's why they messaging you. I treat my main similiar to my alt boxes, as if I have time to read 5 different screens of messages.

Just tell them to either appeal you for cheating or stop sending tells as they are harassing you. If they continue, then appeal them for verbal harassment

i like replying with a "LOL" and then squelching them

[keyclone]

i select them, /assist, /point and /giggle

then i'd ask if they have ever heard of multi-boxing. they'd usually say no. i'd drop them the dual-boxing.com link and tell them to check it out (they'll find keyclone on their own with very little reading)

i also like it when one of them says something, and he's standing to my left. i then spin all the girls to look at him, target/assist and then cast something on them... of course it'd only be a blessing spell due to wow rules... but on other games, they'd be dead.

usually the synchronized turn creeps them out (hehehe)

I enjoy "ni hao" replies and other phrases that make me appear a chinese goldfarmer because it ticks them off even more.

In fact, I should be getting some complaints and reports right about.. now. I ganked a pair of level ?? rogues around thirty minutes ago and I have no doubt that they have something against a pair of level 42s killing them with such ease, see.
