Cheater? - Blue Tracker

#0 - Nov. 27, 2007, 3:38 a.m.

Me and my friend were quietly questing when a guy name [Removed] came with his 4 bots and owned us. They all did the same moves at the exact same time, mounted at the same time, and they all followed the same guy and there all at the same level. Ive made a ticket, but for an hour now there are killing all. All the bots around him have different names, but in a way are the same. Please get rid of this cheater. The server is on magtheridon. Btw, some of the guys are priest and some are locks, and there are alot of pets. There is no way this can be 4 people. If a GM could take a look please...... DO IT!

PS. another guy or the same guy was doing the same thing his name was Reprisal

This particular technique is known commonly as "multi-boxing," Mavanis; while it certainly may seem to grant a specific player additional advantage, it's not considered a violation of policy. As each motion in-game is controlled manually and separately, the practice of operating multiple characters—on multiple accounts—is viewed simply as a clever, yet tedious play style, but not altogether counterintuitive to the spirit of the game.

My apologies for the confusion. I've seen some of these characters in action, and it's certainly a daunting endeavor to witness. :)

Q u o t e:
What is wrong with old threads? Jeeze, it had pertinent info I wanted cleared up by a blue.

We don't like Zombies; back to the depths with ye!

You are more than welcome to start a new thread if you have an issue that needs to be addressed further, but to answer your question: Dual-Boxing (as long as there is no automation involved) is perfectly fine.
