Keep in mind that AFK missioning is an ISK faucet where as AFK mining is not. |

CCP: Maybe ISBoxer command cloning needs to be added to the list of things that are "patterns of play that facilitate acquisition of items, currency, objects, character attributes, rank or status at an accelerated rate when compared with ordinary Game play".
No. Multiboxing is a valid form of play in Eve Online.
And BTW, IsBoxer facilitates a lot more than just ice mining. |

Quite understood, but if the program clones commands, it's not quite the same as the person manually doing the commands himself. If using ISBoxer is the same as not using it, then no one should have a problem with CCP prohibiting the use of a program to emulate commands anyways.
Everything is IsBoxer is still manual. IsBoxer does 2 things.
1.) It broadcasts your mouse and key clicks to multiple clients at the same time. Which is extremely useful. However you still have to be at the keyboard and click the button. Nothing is automated.
2.) IsBoxer also has a feature (called VideoFX) that allows you to place parts of one screen onto another screen. This effectively allows you to control multiple screens without having to jump from screen to screen, which is very useful. Here is a screenshot of my mining setup to illustrate ( http://wiki.eveonline.com/wikiEN/images/4/43/Screen1.jpg ). Again, everything is manual, nothing is automated.
Obviously using IsBoxer is not the same as not using it, otherwise noone would be using it. People need to just get used to the fact the multiboxing is a vibrant part of Eve Online. For me it is what actually makes the game interesting to play as I prefer to be the master of my own empire on my own time schedule, then a peon in someone elses empire on thier time schedule. But that's just me and my humble opinion :-) |
