Why is it a problem? They can pay if they want or ask people to group with them if they don’t want to pay, the outcome is the same with regards to damage output, in fact, they have an advantage over a multiboxer because the damage that 2 people can do will always be higher than what 1 person can do, because 1 person can only do one thing at a time, so 2 people doing 2 things are able to do better than 1 person doing 2 things. Why not spend some of that money you have buying wow for friends and family and paying for their subscriptions, then you can group up and be powerful.
I have not accused you of saying horrible things, in my earlier post I was trying to make clear my many motivations for multiboxing. WoW is pay to play. So you are already paying to win from the get go. Regardless of that, multiboxing is not like buying a stackable damage boost, it’s not that easy, you have to set everything and then you have to control multiple characters, these things take a lot of effort, it’s not a buff, it’s lengthy task that will often give no immediate reward. So with regards to the player that is beating you in battlegrounds, I direct you to read the following:
I can agree with these statement from first hand experience of multiboxing. Multiboxing is not a “Win” button. It’s hard, expensive, thankless. You will be a target for criticism and derision.
The reason to keep multiboxing alive is because it allows players to control multiple characters at the same time. Whether that is something that should be allowed or not doesn’t seem to be clear cut and can depend on many things. Someone people get bad experiences from it and want it to be banned because of that. Others don’t know it exists. Others do it and don’t want it to be banned, and have various reasons for not wanting it to be banned.
I would like to direct you to this thread about a game that according to the original post, has banned multiboxing
according to this you are not allowed to multibox in elder scrolls online. it’s against the rules of the game. so I imagine that if the same thing were to happen in world of warcraft there would be fewer multiboxers and things would be better for people that don’t like multiboxing or the things that multiboxers can do.
The game gives a benefit to groups of players, how is that fair to the single player, it’s just as unfair as allowing multiboxing.
The multiboxer does not get more rewards than others for doing exactly the same thing, they do x times the number of characters they have more than a single player. Also don’t forget that if a player with 10 characters gets 30 to 60 items, they need to divide that by 10. Its true that they do have an advantage though, they can trade between characters and make one of them very powerful. So you say, they are paying to win, what exactly are they winning? More items for their 10 characters?
The way I see it, someone with 10 characters is the same as 1 person that convinces 9 others to help them. Except it’s more difficult to control 10 characters than to control 1 and it’s more expensive.
