Its not cheating until the game company says so. Until then its only your opinion on the matter. No amount of your whining is gonna change that fact. 30 pages of whining or 300 pages of whinning makes no difference.

What do you think half of these threads are for? To protest multiboxing.. w/o 30 pages of whining or 300 pages of whining, this subject would not matter, now it does.

I do not care about multiboxers who play to have fun, but multiboxers that exploit the system for more loot? Hopefully GGG will put a stop to that, hopefully Multiboxers that play for fun, will be able to continue doing so.

They cant put a stop to it though. THere is no way to fix the issue. Its undetectable and mostly unenforcable even if it was detectable. This would be why its legal in just about every game.

Remove bonus iiq/iir from multiplayer. Advantage reduced.

The base idea of the bonus is backwards in the first place. Game is generally much harder solo than in a group. You get multiple targets for the AI to deal with, AOE/DPS that outweighs additional mob health, multiple stacks of gear MF bonus and access to multiple portal placements. The bonus rewards playing easy mode, if anything there should be a slight penalty to running with a group until the game properly scales difficulty with party size.

So you want to penalize people who work together??

Define "properly scales" please.

Punishing eveyone is not the solution

thats not punishing, thats making solo play not as unefficient compared to grouping as it is now. at least they get advantage, as of now, there is no downsides for playing in group compared to solo play.

u get less drops in solo, u get harder mobs, u get less experience.

Diablo 2 established the concept of "monster item fountains" for multiple player instances.
That was ages ago and it's SO old school.

Removing iir/iiq from multiplayer is leveling the playing field, especially in a FFA drop game.

Stop being a relic of the past and start thinking about team cooperation and skill usage. Not piggy drop rates for cheating multi-farmer bot RMT game destroyers.

Solution: 1. I will call them "Fair-Trade" Players group up.

Nice post Tadl. Glad to see someone "gets it." I basically pointed out the same solution where I mentioned "Local Currency"

If I'm understanding you correctly you would like to see a poejsp :-)
