The Multi-box Thread: How it ruins the game.
" It takes skill to multi box. Clearly you are not up for the challenge! Fighting the war against the AltF4Core! Hardcore is for whimps.

Why doesn't Chris just limit the amount of clients you can have open on one PC/IP? D2 anyone?
|

" GGG has stated mule accounts are fine, so multiple clients on a computer are fine. IP restrictions would kill the fun for multiple people behind the same IP (which can be a lot of people, depending on where you live). Neither is desirable. Such restrictions would frustrate regular users, and multiboxers would just work around the inconvenience. Everyone loses. No. Calm down. Learn to enjoy losing.

" Clearly youve never played d2. I can open as many screens as I want at any time. Also even if you added this in, it is defeated by every boxxing prog out there. |

Yep getting 16 gb ram to be able to run 6 accounts NEEDS REALLY MUCH SKILL :D
Sorry to say this but you get 250% quantity for nothing. Its really FAIR vs less pc equipped(skilled) players :))) Happy to see this game becomes more and more disbalanced xD |

" Multiboxing is not the same thing as multilogging. Multiboxing takes more involvement then a computer from the last 5 years. If it's not against the rules then it can't be cheating. If GGG allows it then how is it cheating? Awful lot of poor logic in this thread. |
|
" Yup... Its the simple inability to understand this that 48 pages of people fail to comprehend. |
|
" Depends if you were on LAN or ONLINE. Battle.net limited D2 to 4 simultaneous connections / IP. This covers the case where a family wants to play together or since Blizzard also stated that self-muling was acceptable it allows for the case where the lone gamer can additionally log in with 3 mules (and effectively have unlimited stash size.) How many simultaneous IP connections does PoE's Terms of Use grant to users? If the ToU does not say how many are allowed, why not? Edit: fixed 'log in' typo.

" As stated before, the official GGG stance is: You are allowed to "multibox" if, and only if, you are manually controlling each character that you have logged in. If you're taking the time to go from mouse to mouse and keyboard to keyboard to control your characters, that's fine. That takes quite a bit of effort and does not give you an unfair advantage since you're putting in the effort. But as soon as you proxy or automate your commands, then you're doing something that GGG does not condone. From an interview Chris did (transcribed by SpudOfDoom on the forums) " |

And what we say is do you really think multiboxers will go threw the trouble of individual clicks and taps on each character on each client? more than likely not. its not efficient, but there is the people who will use that and the bots to overcome that and THEY are ruining the game.
Edit: im amazed at almost 50 pages and not a single GGG responce. get a backbone GGG and answer everyones questions. we want answers. Last edited by DatChen#6930 on Apr 6, 2013, 12:41:49 AM
