WCRadio - Octale & Hordak vs the World - Antiboxer email

http://wcradio.com/archives.php?sele...783&autoplay=1 - About the 20min mark into the stream.

Was listening to this at work...they read out some email from listeners, and this one asks "I was wondering what your guys' opinion on multiboxing is; we lost to a boxer in pvp and made a forum post and got flamed for it; it makes pvp and farming unfair to the rest of us; BTW DO U PLAY YUGIOH LOL"

Their response: "Well ifyou wanna piss away $15-45 a month to do on 2-4 chars what players that don't suck can do on one char, go for it! Their output is no better than a good solo player's is, and it might sound a bit arrogant but that's because i'm not terrible at the game"; I believe this deserves a response ;) I'd like to see a lone player solo heroic anything or take on a 5man arena team at higher ranks.

They go on to discuss an EQ boxer who did it to sell ingame items, and how that's how they view "us" now, ignorant views.

Opinions, lolz, etc?

Just sounds like they don't know what they're talking about. Surprise surprise. I'd like to see the solo player who has absolute control of drops, farms 300-600 gold a day on dailies, has a DPS of 3k minimum, and solos their own dungeons.

Yeah they are calling 5boxing a perversion and all about account sales here

[keyclone]

sounds like a job for Vyndree !

i guess since the haters got pwned on the boards, it's time to take it to another medium...

Thanks for replying to the thread too Pyro, I can't register from work but will once I get home...I already idle alot in the WCradio IRC and most of the regulars, the station owner himself included, knows I box nowadays, none of them have an issue(So don't look down on the site as a whole, it's a VERY large, very public radio community ;p just Octale & Hordak lol); I find it funny how the OP words it though, like a scathing, biased News story, worded over-professionally, not like a normal person would lol, "Perversion of gameplay!"

On a related note, edit yet post and add a line regarding the account selling, stating that most if not all of us frown upon it, and that one of our members did the math, and it came out to be LESS THAN MINIMUM WAGE to ebay via multiboxing. We do it for fun, the challenge, or to simply be hermits in an MMO(As if everyone doesn't fucking solo anyways, fuckin hypocrites)

/rofl. Sounds to me like these guys are hatin' on it for no good reason. $5 says they're raiders who've been jipped on dkp repeatedly.

The whole thing is pretty ignorant. Who the hell sells their multiboxing accounts? You can make so much more farming dailies, shards, and arena teams than you can with how long it takes to level a character.

yeah I think thats the thing most non boxers dont realize multiboxing a full group to 70 isnt something that takes 2 days or a week... it takes a good long time to get to 70 x 5.

I thought grinding in DAOC was a pain.... 5 boxing in wow frustrates me on the leveling aspect, I HATE COLLECTION QUESTS!

My leveling to 60 was very fast, mostly in instances. Once at 60 it started slowing down. I did it this way:

Hellfire quests and the instances (Ramps and BF)
Zangar quests and instances (Underbog and Slave Pens)
Terokkar quests and instances (Mana Tombs and SH)

I went to Nagrand when I was 68 and I dinged 70 before I set foot in BEM. I am probably half way through the BEM quests at the moment as I am just farming gold for flying mounts, about 500g to go between all 5.

Who the hell sells their multiboxing accounts?

Hello, I am selling a level 70 alliance 5-man multibox on a US PVP server. The team is 4 gnome warlocks, (3 felguard, 1 sl/sl for spell-lock\devour) and one dwarf disc priest.

This is five accounts, and I am the original owner of all 5. I have the secret key etc.

The gear level varies, but all have at least 100 resil, the priest is close to 300. There is some s3 gear, but the majority of it is honor gear and kara loot. The priest has 1500 +healing and the locks range from 850-1000 buffed spelldamage.

All have their normal flying mounts, and there is about 10,000 gold between the accounts (15,000 short of epic flyers for all 5) I will charge more if you want the gold.

I want to sell these as a package deal to someone interested in multiboxing. All have their transfers up.

I am looking for $1500 for the complete set, and will not break the 5box up. If you're interested leave a post\privatemsg with an screen name and I'll contact you shortly. I will do paypal (keeping the secret key until the transfer is finalized) or western union online, and will trustwho verify\take other steps to establish identity as needed.

That guy does.
