its the pop subject of the month, daily cries.
Everyone who complains about it usuaily gets dominated.
Seriousally i dont see everyones problem, its usuaily directed at battleground action, so you come up against 1 multiboxer today and now its a massive issue.
Start crying when there are multiboxers in every BG you enter.

I'M IN DAT THREAD.
DEFENDING OUR BOXZ.

Gets fairly annoying how often this sort of thread comes up in the GD room nowadays.

I do wonder if someday Blizzard might just cave and rule out multiboxing. :-(

Ashamed to admit, I got a little angry at one poster in the thread. I'll be making sure to review my posts before actually posting them (using a technique I've learnt at work a long long time ago...lol).

Oh yay, more afternoon reading. So far, these threads have yet to get old for me but I have noticed they are becoming more frequent. Ah, our wonderful growing community.

Must convert more =P

these threads have yet to get old for me but I have noticed they are becoming more frequent.

It's the flavor of the month. Complaining about arena and multiboxing are all the rage right now. As predicted, the new argument is "I don't care what Blizzard says, it's illegal!!!" Which kind of does our work for us by being self-dismissive. The other remains the old standby, "they allow it because it's extra money", but that argument is so utterly stupid that I usually just ignore it.

It would be interesting to see the numbers in regards to multiple accounts owned by one person (same name) vs. single accounts owned. I know a lot of people have two accounts for numerous reasons - so you'd have to query like 3+ to get semi-accurate numbers of multiboxers.

Its probably like less then 2% of the overall WoW population. That woudl go a long way to debunking the "its because of the money" argument.

That and the fact that Blizzard have been long time supporters of multiboxing even when they didn't make any money from it. How many accounts in D2:LOD did I have? I couldn't even remember, but it was lots, and lots and lots.

[Gallo]

I think that my favorite arguement FOR blizzard allowing multiboxing is the fact that damn near every MMO before WoW has allowed (and sometimes encouraged) multiboxing. It's been around long before this game, and will continue on to other MMO's. Let the QQers cry all they want.

Yeah, I agree with this. It's so tempting to log on to the forums and start calling people morons (if the forums were working that is), but its much more effective to politely explain why they are wrong. Again and again and again...
