More money in blizzards pocket, did you really think they wouldn't like that?


That isn't why it is currently permitted, Volitar. It simply isn't considered a violation of our policies. As long as it is the registered user controlling those characters we do not prohibit multi-boxing.

Well a few ppl i knew got banned from it along time ago in bc but now i see more of them and nothings happening=P


Unlikely, Ilin, they may have told you that was why they were suspended or had their account closed but I can say with absolute certainty it wasn't for multi-boxing.

Thank you for those links, Shandiee. :)

I pretty much repeated what two people already said -_-


Well, to go off what you said behind your edit, Watermelyn, I don't know if I would call it an advantage. Sure, you can have X number of characters with you and you can all direct them on the same target. Though 5 vs 1 will almost always be able to overpower the 1, 5 vs 5 is an entirely different matter. Though near simultaneous attacks could be considered an advantage most players experienced with multi-boxers will tell you they also have several very obvious disadvantages. :)
