This.
I have nothing against players playing multiple instances of wow.
But the following should be a rule, violating it should be a bannable offence:
"One keystroke allows for one actions, for one character."
So, you press a key, and one action occurs on all 10 of your fucking flock of druids? Banned. No more flocks of druids sucking Nazjatar dry or interferring with quests by moonfiring everything, or fucking up people in PvP by having 10 druids one shot you with a single synchronized ability.
You want to fly your alt on your other account around on your sandstone drake? Go right ahead.

You press one button and your 30 druids all repeat that one action.
It's a detriment to everyone else. Can't find Zin'anthid anymore because of flocks of druids that are there 24/7. Most the nodes I do find "You can't loot that now" because 10 druids used it all up just before I arrived.

It is allowed, so why do we need post after post about this ? It takes quite a bit before someone actually cancels their account and sub over multiboxers. and the 4-5 per year that might do it. Their sub fees is still covered by 1 multiboxer. So obviously blizzard is going for the option that makes them the most money. Wow is a product after all
We don't have to like it, but it is what it is
As far as PVE content goes it's fine but in PVP Blizzard should find a way to ban those people from participating in BGs unless they disable their multiboxing. It's straight up cheating. I've went up against these people and while they are killable if you have a small group with you they are impossible to beat one on one especially if they're ranged.
I actually don't understand why nothing is being done about multiboxing in PVP at least.

You have no idea if they think its cheating or not. They almost certainly take into consideration the amount of money it raises before making any conclusions. If WoW was to go free to play I suspect Blizzard's stance on the subject may well change.

Why will that help me, have you put your opinion on the subject in any of those?

I come from a time and a place where I judge people by the content of their character; I don't give a damn if you are tall or short; gay or straight; Jew or Gentile; White, Black, Brown or Green; Conservative or Liberal. -- Note to mods: if you are going to infract me have the decency to post the reason, and expect to hold everyone else to the same standard.
Blizz only allows it because they have extra sub fees involved.
No, I press one button and it goes to all clients
It wasn't a detriment to me before I started multiboxing so idk wtf you're talking aboutIt's a detriment to everyone else.
Sounds like you have a problem with bots if they are in fact there 24/7Can't find Zin'anthid anymore because of flocks of druids that are there 24/7

Multiboxing the "legit" old school way is fine, alt tabbing between clients and manually controlling each character.
Using 3rd party programs, scripts, hotkeys, macros etc to duplicate keypresses and send them across different accounts is blatantly cheating and modifying the game experience in an unfair advantageous way.
It should be an instant permaban. It's literally cheating.

You press one button and that action is repeated by all clients.
And thank you for dragging out that blue post again and again and again. We get it, Blizzard says MBing is legit. I'm not saying it isn't, I'm saying it shouldn't be.
Then you've never herbed nazjatar before.It wasn't a detriment to me before I started multiboxing so idk wtf you're talking about

Normally i wouldn't care but most multi boxers or at least the ones i have seen especially on classic do it to sell the accounts for real money.Though i know they will never make it against the tos because it brings in money to blizzard.I have seen multiple times a multi boxer in classic with up to 40 or 50 characters following them around.That is a lot of sub money blizzard is getting.So until wow is free to play multi boxers are here to stay i can guaranty you that lol and i don't see wow going free to play ever or its a long long ways away.
ive seen td script mentioned several times here. isnt that basically a 1 button rotation bot? didnt those get a hit with the banwave in... wod i believe it was?
or is that kind of scripting actually allowed? or am i not understanding tdscript at all?
Fair, but show me the multiboxer playing with a keyboard on each hand and foot in perfect synchronicity and I'll show you someone who is lying and using a third party program.
If the token system wasn't in place making Blizzard extra money off of multiboxers, they'd ban the software because it is exactly the kind of software that bots use to do what they do.
I don't know how it works but it is an addon that does everything with Blizzards Addon code. You are right that it is basically a 1 button bot but it is for pet battles. No idea if the same addon code can be applied to more then pet battles. I am 100% sure Blizzard is aware of it but they don't seem to be against it being used for pet battles.
