and your a gm?


You may be misunderstanding me. I want to know what you think multiboxing is because there are often misconceptions in the general public about what multiboxing actually is. Some people confuse it for botting, for example, which makes people believe we support botting, etc.

I want to know why you're upset--what exactly is spurring this vitriol on.

Q u o t e:
Ok, he is botting, he has a program telling all of his accounts to do the same action at the same moment. Obviously this is ok, because this is the same player i reported 3 months ago.


This is what I figured.

Multiboxing isn't botting. And neither is the action you're describing.

Q u o t e:
you guys are comical, this thread was meant towards blizzard and anyone who cared to do anything about this. Not no life losers who sit on a forum all night long.... Please poke all the fun you want, but your just better off trolling somewhere else.


Ad hominem--the last bastion of those who don't wish to educate themselves.

Did you read my reply, Quyv?

If four shaman played by four different players came up to you and instagibbed you with Chain Lightning, would you be making the complaint that four shaman should not be allowed to be friends or chat with each other?

Q u o t e:



No i wouldnt ,but thats not the case is it?
timing is everything in PVP, a split second could give you enought time to defend yourself, as i said this is why i'm on PVP... but when myself and four others are all one shoted without a chance to do even a fraction of the damage, how is that fair?
this is what i'm trying to figure out

PVP is player vs. player

not players vs player & computers
if i wanted to fight computers i'd be on PVE


If the player was controlling each character by hand using four different keyboards and still instagibbed you, would you be making this complaint?

What is the crux of your argument?

Q u o t e:



oh no not at all.
and i have no argument.. clearly.
i'm simply asking why this is allowed? and how its fair to people who don't do it.
like i said before, i was told by a GM to come here and ask my questions.. then asked by you to post in here.. I've done nothing but voice my opinion and do what i was asked too.
can you as a GM tell me why Blizz allows this and why its fair?
thats all i asked you too say
honestly if i wanted to harrassed by people for voicing my opinion i'd be in politics.


Did you read the threads linked to you in your original thread? Or linked repeatedly in this very thread?

Q u o t e:


typical gm...... O boy blizz is goin down the drain quick ehhh?

I guess you have to defend every decision blizzard makes and cant stand back and use some common sense or try to think for yourself ????

Good doggy. Do your job...


I'm not even sure how to respond to this. Are you really replying to my logical and relevant question with an ad hominem argument?

What I will attempt to field on this forum:

Legitimate complaints
Confusion over policies
Requests for another look into things
Clarifications of departmental actions

What I will not tolerate:

Willful ignorance
Ad hominem attacks against me

If you must complain, although this is not the complaints forum, you'd be wise to do so within our Forum Code of Conduct.

We may be here to let you vent when you need it, but we are not required to take abuse simply because you've failed to educate yourself on our hows and whys given the opportunity.
