The Multi-box Thread: How it ruins the game.

Multiboxing/multi-farming gives one player a distinct advantage over another player.
No, one guy switching seats from one computer to another has no advantage. You need to use botting and other forms of automation to gain an advantage.

You're allowed to create as many separate accounts as you want. That's pretty close to being included in the game. Botting, however, is a subversion of the game.

It's not complex, it's not difficult, and that's almost as silly as saying me creating a new forum account named CambobSucks to troll you is cheating. Me creating a bot that automatically created new accounts to create spam advertisement threads in General Discussion would be a different story.

wtf are you talking here about rofl?


It all comes down to only this tiny sentence...

WAS THE GAME DESIGNED TO PLAY WITH ONE CLIENT OR WITH MULTIPLE CLIENTS PER INTERNET CONNECTION?

Now all sit down, grab a coffee, and think again before you write senseless posts on drugs or whatever to justify missbehaviour. lmao

You can do tons of stuff in life which is not forbidden. Is it approved? No. So stop that fking argument of nonsense. I am pretty sure if there was an easy way to prevent this crapmethod of lowskilled losers without ruining the game than GGG would do it..

Then why do you think GGG made PoE with progression?

Because of our nature to be happy when we achieved a goal. GGG is in the business of setting up triggers for the release of dopamine and other chemicals in the brain. They give us an enjoyable world, we give them money.
Well at least some of us give them money. I am included in the list of donators, and as far as i can tell you are not. Now what does that say? Cheap stake.

By your stupid logic, everyone should be level 100 with all possible items in the game. NO randomization. No progression. No trading.

Please walk me through the logic, cause i for the life of me cannot distort what iv said to anything remotely resembling that logic train.
Far as i can tell you seem to think getting to level 100 with the best possible items is 'needed'. That might explain a few things.

Stop making excuses for cheating.

I do not make excuses for cheating. No where have i ever said multi-boxing should be acceptable. What i am arguing against is that it 'ruins the game'. There is very clear difference.


1. Cheapskate, not cheap stake.
2. I have a mini pet frog and thank you for donating.. 'bronze' pfft.
3. You said you do not need a damn thing the market offers. then why play a multiplayer game?
4. You claim to be self sufficient, so why bother to play if u have it all?
5. I like lasagna, but that doesn't make me Italian
6. Multiboxing doesn't ruin the game? Is that really how you see it?

Oh.. of course that is how you see it. Because you're self sufficient. you don't need anything on the market. I guess all the multiboxing pays off for you then? Right?

Your snide comment about cheap 'stake' is a bit petty, don't ya think?
Nothing more than a silly troll attack /wrists.

i dont think GGG said anything about multiboxing=cheating.

did they?


if people have good computer to run multiple accounts, that's not cheating.

if people have multiple computers to run accounts , that's not cheating.


if people use 3rd party program, that's cheating.

bot, cheating.


dont mix those together tho.




Explain to me how you multibox WITHOUT a 3rd party program?



All Hardware and Multiple pc's. If you wanna call shennanigans on 3 party progams, then start by removing all mouse and kb software then your OS. They are all 3rd party programs. Not exactly sure how to reinstall the game on a pc with no operating system but maybe youll have better luck than most :)



Anyone wishing to understand multiboxxing before coming and posting more utter nonsense go to www.dual-boxing.com and read.


Kissel...same tired arguments. Keyboard/Mice are necessary to play the game however; one cannot multibox without 3rd party software unless one is alt/tabbing to mutliple windows. If you can play 6 characters at once without any other 3rd party program you are a better man than I.

Multiboxing ruins games. It leads to RTM. GGG is against RTM therefore they should be against multiboxing.

Crafting doesn't exist in POE. Gambling does...and the house always wins.

Does multiboxing give one player an advantage over other players? Yes.

multiboxing is cheating.
That's analogous to saying that alcoholic beverages and marijuana are immoral.

If you drink alcohol or smoke marijuana, does that make you more likely to commit crimes like:
  • driving while intoxicated?
  • assault and battery?
  • sexual assault or rape?
I'm pretty sure that, strictly speaking, the answer is yes. If you plot it all out on a graph, there's probably a positive correlation.

But does that make the use of those substances immoral in and of itself? For alcohol, almost everyone thinks it isn't intrinsically immoral, and in marijuana's case it's a fiercely debated, controversial issue (at least in the US).



lets not put alcohol and marijuana in a comparison. there is no comparison. One helps people, is natural and has never hurt anyone while remaining illegal. The other kills people every day and causes people to commit crimes they probably wouldn't have otherwise, yet is legal. It makes no sense. Corruption and greed.

And please, stop quoting and pissing at each other. What sense does it make to fight virtually when you don't even know each other? I wouldn't waste the time. No1 cares about your personal arguments :/ Use the personal message button..

How would one even mutli box now? Only things I can think of is they are running vaal runs all day. Second, they are cheating and using cheaty 3rd party software to move all of their guys at once and they would all have to be leveled up I'm assuming. It seems like it would be incredibly difficult. But what do I know?

The topic name includes 'how it ruins the game'.
If you are aware of x, then y.
x.
Thus Y.

I think we can all agree X potentially exists. But those who dont know how to think for themselves dont seem to understand that 'if you are aware of x, then y' is extremely debatable, unproven, and imo wrong.
But lets just say my opinion is wrong, and that it is all true. Why bring awareness to x?
Could it be because someone wants Y?
Could it be because someone doesnt care about others enjoyment.
Why fight for this topic? Seriously, even if you are right(which you arent). You are doing more harm than good.
For years i searched for deep truths. A thousand revelations. At the very edge...the ability to think itself dissolves away.Thinking in human language is the problem. Any separation from 'the whole truth' is incomplete.My incomplete concepts may add to your 'whole truth', accept it or think about it

You have more X's and Y's in that post than you have actual words in the English language.






At any rate, I find it interesting that Skycore just dodges all of my posts that call him out for his attention redirects and other such tricks.
