What do you think - how many boxed subscribtions are gone?

[CokeZero]

Multiboxing software just made it THAT much easier for bots to "multi-bot".
I suspect if innerspace/isboxer and any other software tools had a built in anti-cheat detection to combat the bots (and it actually worked) that we MIGHT not be here in this situation.
I am not saying that Lax should have built in an anti-cheat or that any of the other software devs should be policing their users lol, that's not really their business, and likely most of us would be up in arms at the type of privacy concerns a built in anti-cheat would cause. There are still people who bitch about how far Warden goes to detect cheats.
But the massive amounts of bots I've been seeing "multiboxing" was fucking insane. And I knew shit was gonna hit the fan soon because it was WAY out of hand. Every freaking day I was seeing those fuckers running around, and you could tell it wasn't a normal multiboxer just by the way they moved. Following each other EXACTLY step by step, even when turning or going around objects. They weren't actually using /follow, they were following a pre-programmed path.
Flat banning this software was just the easy/lazy way out for Blizzard to help combat the bots. Will it eliminate botting? Well duh, no. Will it make it easier to catch multiboxing bots? Well duh, ya. Will the bots just go back to single botting or not so obviously "multi-botting"? Most likely. It's possible most of them didn't even use isboxer to bot with, since the subscription cost would just eat into their profit, they probably built their own basic tools or used one of the other free options since they have no need for the powerful tools that were available in isboxer.
We just got caught in the crossfire pretty hardcore.
