Multiboxing Mentors

[Nitro]

I think we should have a mentor list for each server/faction for people who need help learning to multibox. People learn differently than each other and have varying degrees of tolerance to learning from texts, some people need a person to talk to more than others to understand some of the more complicated aspects of multiboxing.

A total noob to multiboxing could come here and do alot of reading and get themselves up and running in a few days of intense work. On the otherhand if that same person had a mentor you can cut the education process down to just a few hours.

I am always willing to help out anyone on Arthas Server Horde side with any questions about MB, share macros, etc.

WANTED: Sticky with a list of mentors per server and faction and how to contact them

Add me to the list: Nitro aka Instagiba on Arthas server Horde side - PM me via these forums to get in touch.

I've coached a few newbies on frostmourne, and spent the time to talk to them and go through it, and in the end they get bored after a few levels and dont continue with it, pretty dissapointing actually seeing i went out my road for them,

I send people here.. i get people wanting help that wont read stickies or try to learn the basics on their own.. F em!.. lazy people make me nuts

You need the technical skills, or atleast some will to try to obtain those technical skills on your own to have success with multiboxing.

Multiboxing isnt for everyone, and if you cant put enough time in it to make it on your own, its not worth it.

This is atleast my opinion on the matter.

It might be better if you post where you are in the World... so that you can go over to their homes...

A holding hand program... I see too many ways it could go wrong.

To multibox, you need the technical skills for the hardware and software, need Warcraft macro knowledge, know how to do a lot of research on your own, enough funds for the computer and accounts... and lastly, not be so damn lazy that you can't even do a search and at least try to do some of it on your own.

That all being said (and I agree with it) I think you can get an idea early if someone is really interested and willing to make the investment of time, energy, stress, and $ to be a sucessful boxer. I've turned alot of ppl down by saying 'go search the web for multiboxing.' There are a few that asked legitimate, respectful questions and may start boxing on their own. For these people- I am more than happy to spend my time coaching, and answering some questions. That is why I am a member of this site.

If someone wants to contact me in game- whisper Stackin on Boulderfist.

Well, my signature has my details.

I've already had a few people asking on Cael, most whom I've directed to here or the mb wiki. Some I never hear from again, 1 appears to be genuinely interested and I'll be willing to help him.

Have had numerous people pass by, check it all out, ask questions, and then go away to never been seen again, I agree with above posters, try to find it yourself. Im not quitting or stopping anywhere anymore to type walls of texts, there is no outcome, no gain from it, other then constantly typing the same deal over and over and over.

You can't imagine how many people on a server ask how multiboxing is done when you're a multiboxer. Answering to those non-multiboxing players already takes a lot of time. But in the end you meet new people and it's fun, so I don't mind.
I don't think you'll find many willing to be someone's personal mentor, just because it requires too much time. I had someone offering me 1700g to teach him multiboxing and that was quite appealing ... right until I understood that he's a minor and not the owner of the accounts and I told him I couldn't take his gold and help him further (I won't help someone break the Terms of Use).

There's enough information available online anyway. It's not very well organized, but it's there. When people have trouble with that and want me as their personal trainer, it's gonna cost them gold :P

I thought this would probably be a really good idea. Even if you have the forum and the web ppl would always like to ask ppl in person about assistance. So why not make a Tread about players who would like to assists on each realm?
I know search function works fine but then again if you are on the same realm every one love live help And i doubt most ppl in this community have a problem with that.
