I was wondering why in the eve universe would someone play with 120 accounts? Theres one guy in Agal & Hadji who likes to brag about all this accounts. He posts pictures of his setup all the time in local. Seven or eight computers all being controlled by ISboxer. He has about 50 macks for ice mining, 30ish or other exhumers for mining regular ore, a small fleet for nagas(10-15) for security, and the rest seem to be miscellaneous.
Now I've heard of people with 10 chars, even 20 and thinking "wow" thats crazy. But 120 accounts? Why in the world would someone run so many??? |

Ask him, if you really want to know. Most of us don't do it or see any point in doing it, so that is what our replies will reflect. |

I actually talked from him and he said that he didn't pay anything for those accounts.
He said that apparently goonswarm are giving away free accounts for ice mining.
I honestly think its a huge scam, but you never know.
It could be a huge conspiracy where goonswarm is taking all the ice to limit the amount of POSes. The [UNDOCK] button is an "I agree to be blown up" button. by clicking it, you are accepting. -Kitty Bear |

if you think about it its actually a smart idea to have that many chars, when he wants to sell them he's gonna have **** tons of isk. he prolly already does now anyways,
my guess with that many chars he prolly supports a srp program for an alliance, by building replacement ships. and pos fuels or titan bridge fuels.
on the other hand, i flew with a guy back in the day who had, 24 accounts, in nullsec,. 22 being mackinaw pilots 2 being rorqual pilots, purpose of this was so he could ice mine a billion isk an hour. and to support his alliance
if i was retired id prolly do the same thing,
just imagine if this guy decided to put 15 of those pilots into triage carriers, 15 of those pilots into dreads, 30 into super carriers, 20 into titans, 40 into subcapitals. youd have your own little badass capital fleet with support, which would be impossible to run but hey, be still pretty cool.
theres over a 100 reasons why someone would want that many chars. |

that many miners, yey be kinda stupid to pay for their time with rl money cause getting plexes is easier he prolly makes 1 month of game time for each of his chars in under 8 hours. |

well i dont think im allowed to link people themselves. i can say however, in the US prime time(in Agal system) you will often find a group of mackinaws clustered(50 or so) together like a school of fish for half hour before they all mine out the ice. would make for an interesting smart bombing battleship gone wild video on youtube. |

I wonder how much cash he makes through RMT... I'm not entirely clear on the point of this, but I do have a sudden urge to jump in a catalyst and blow up a miner. Twitter! - @AzamiNevinyrall I'm half expecting a ban for this post. |

He is the reason why programs like ISboxer should be banned. Found is ludicrous the first time I came across him. Back then he only had 80ish. Now way he could manage all those miners without ISboxer. ISboxer does provide an unfair advantage but CCP will not admit it. I try to be nice and mind my business just shooting lasers at rocks. There is just way too many asshats in New Eden for that to happen. |

I can imagine CCP's take on this, should he go, or you? we know the right answer to that one don't we.

Greed is good?
This is not uncommon for miners, I've seen 0.0 miners with 100's of accounts.
Even the bitterest combat vet isn't likely to have more than 15-20.
Shows that mining is so low yield, you have to run that many to get rich...
I too am excited about trading playability for more lag and shiny pictures.....:( Petition for a Minimum bounty of 10 mil. Prevent useless bounties!

Last I checked, it was 145 accounts and not 120. It's best to leave the guy alone, it's old, old news. It's definitely not a goon, and I'll leave it at that.

Let's not, lets all get together everybody in EVE universe to track and camp him to hell :)
Let him work those 145 accounts :)
If he wants attention, let's not dispoint :)
That is the Eve way of solving a problem (or creating a new one :)) |

I knew a guy who had 24 accounts in SWTOR -- before there was a lower cap. He was dying of cancer and that was his way to cope, even though he had family.
I still had to block him as he was intolerable. I felt bad about that. |

There's a Titan killmail floating around with three players on it: the tackler, a guy multiboxing 30 neuting Tempests, and another guy multiboxing a similar number of DPS ships.
Since Titans are more or less helpless without a support fleet, you could make a case that multiboxing increases as risk decreases. Asteroids don't shoot back at all; neither do ice fields. Titans don't shoot back effectively, unless you're about as big as they are. Industrials coming through gates? Same deal.
Multiboxing against a fleet of 60 piloted combat ships? Yeah, not so much. Proud founder and member of the Belligerent Desirables. |

No he doesnt need the attention. You don't know the story. Google him if you want, but keep it off the forums please. See Bio for isk doubling rules. -áIf you didn't read bio, chances are you helped fund those who did. |
