A small list of the arguments for and against ISboxer:
"ISboxer bring more money to CCP" No, ISboxers can make so much ingame ISK that they dont need to use real cash to pay their accounts.
"But someone spend real cash on the PLEX they buy with ingame ISK" Yes, but usually some other player, normally is not the ISboxer, he doesnt need to.
"But it doesnt interfere with your gameplay" Yes, it interferes with my gameplay when it uses synchronized fire, it can be much more effective than a human alpha strike and win PvP battles with the same numbers, even in Incursions they are using it to win against any fleet. Plus it completely ruins the Immersion of the game, soon EVE Online will look like an Asian mmo where you rarely see a real player.
"But only a small % of players use ISboxer" For now maybe, but if this is not dealt with soon, it will spread fast due to the power of this program. Just imagine the distortion of numbers in 0.0 if this is used on a large scale.
"But players have the right to play the game the way they want" True, but they already have the option to use multiclient, they dont need some program that give them an unfair advantage against the players that dont use external programs.
But in my opinion what is more insidious is that it is against the spirit of Group Play.
We dont want to go back to Single Player Games pre-Internet where you played alone on your PC and used cheat hacks to win the harder games.

Actually this is a "automation" software.
It is not a bot per se but it does "automate" the sequence of clicks required to run multiple accounts.
The discussion is similar to argument that Fully automatic rifle is a gun but a semiautomatic rifle is hunting accessory.
It is not a bot that is correct but sure as hell is in the same category ...
Legal or not that is up to CCP to decide but armies of these mining or even PVP sure will mess up the real game play. In my opinion this should be considered cheating but that is me. |

This is the biggest myth I see perpetuated about multiboxer. If a multiboxer is running ten accounts and he is mining, and getting 5m per hour per account then he's getting 50m per hour. That seems like that's an advantage, except its not... because he is still just getting 5m per hour per account... 5m per hour per account wont help you plex your accounts. Multiboxers don't earn more ISK per hour per account than any normal player. I personally don't even understand why they do it. The fact of the matter is, they don't earn more ISK. Their accounts are just as broke as the rest of ours.
Ellen Thrace wrote:"But someone spend real cash on the PLEX they buy with ingame ISK" Yes, but usually some other player, normally is not the ISboxer, he doesnt need to.
See above.
Ellen Thrace wrote: "But it doesnt interfere with your gameplay" Yes, it interferes with my gameplay when it uses synchronized fire, it can be much more effective than a human alpha strike and win PvP battles with the same numbers, even in Incursions they are using it to win against any fleet. Plus it completely ruins the Immersion of the game, soon EVE Online will look like an Asian mmo where you rarely see a real player.
I have fought against people trying to multibox in Pvp. It only works in massive alpha blobs with other players doing the other stuff like scouting and logi. One multiboxer on his own is a dream come true for a PvPer because they're crap and that's a lot of kills. As for incursion fleets see my above arguement. ISK per account... Exactly the same as 1 account.
Ellen Thrace wrote:"But only a small % of players use ISboxer" For now maybe, but if this is not dealt with soon, it will spread fast due to the power of this program. Just imagine the distortion of numbers in 0.0 if this is used on a large scale.
It will only ever be a small % because multiboxing is stupid. It doesn't get them an advantage over any other player.
Ellen Thrace wrote:"But players have the right to play the game the way they want" True, but they already have the option to use multiclient, they dont need some program that give them an unfair advantage against the players that dont use external programs.

The effective income per account is the same as though they were only using 1 account. Regardless of whether they actually pay with money or not, those accounts are ultimately paid for with real money. The guy who was sitting next to me in the first nullsec round table who had obviously not had a shower since before boarding his flight to Iceland, you really stank. You know who you are. |

legality issues aside, if the fact that it "automates" a sequence of clicks makes people a "lameass" then every one who owns a half decent keyboard is also a "lameass".
if ISboxer actually gave you some kind of unfair advantage i'd be able to understand what people were getting so upset about, but it doesn't so... i honestly don't understand why their panties are all in a bunch. |

Personally I do not care that much about it but really the automation level we are talking about here is above a good gaming keyboard.
It can perform coordinated 5-6 characters synchronized attacks with the simplicity and effort of flying s single ship. Same with mining or any other in game activity. Basically you can in theory run a whole wing of ships as easy as one only limitation is the hardware you are willing to invest. 2 3 10 20 even 50 accounts are not a problem to coordinate
As I have said I don't care that much but similar things are borderline to semi - botting. And to be honest IF you think that 90 % of the people that use this are not gold sellers than you are na+»ve. |

And to be honest IF you think that 90 % of the people that use this are not gold sellers than you are na+»ve. Have you ever used it? I don't need you to answer that question, I know you haven't by your assumptions. I can tell you this is in now way true, the slightest difference in overview spacings, window location, client lag and you've got half your fleet warping to the sun and half your fleet self-destructing. This is in no way an 'I-win' programme, I challenge anyone to do the 7 day free trial and not give up in frustration, no amount of synchronising settings will make up for that tiny bit of lag it takes to repeat the command from one client to the next, which seems to compound on itself the more clients you run. You may click on 'warp to' on your primary client, your final client being 1/10th of a second behind primary will be dozens of pixels away and you end up Jumping gate. Right click on your capacitor 'Enter starbase password' on primary client 'Initiate selfdestruct' on client 8. People shouldn't comment on this I-win programme until they actually try it and see how shoddy it is.
Edit: Realistically it's only application is in slow-action things, like hauling or mining, and tbh it's probably a waste of $ for that as you can do these things manually so bloody easily. Damn nature, you scary! |

I don't see a problem with it and neither would CCP. The more one single person is willing to pay for (or otherwise maintain) multiple accounts, why would they wan't to deny this one person a means to efficiently control these accounts?
To me, regardless if the program relays a single keypress command to several other clients, a keypress was still required for it to facilitate the other client actions, and it will require a keypress for each additional action. A living human being is at the keyboard and actively playing. To me, that's not a bot.

Great post. I would like to add some info into this discussion. Since my last post was closed and with no much information from ccp, I just read the policy rules and it says :
1- You may not use your own or third-party software to modify any content appearing within the Game environment or change how the Game is played.
> Since multiboxing is an third party software that changes the way the game is played, its against this rule.
2- You may not use your own or any third-party software, macros or other stored rapid keystrokes or other 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. You may not rewrite or modify the user interface or otherwise manipulate data in any way to acquire items, currency, objects, character attributes or beneficial actions not actually acquired or achieved in the Game.
> Well, since it facilitate acquisition of anything etc, its against this rule.
3- You may not use the Software, or any information accessible through the System, to bypass the System login architecture or create or provide any other means through which the System may be accessed and/or the Game may be played by others, as, for example, through server emulators.
> I didnt use this software, but I think it bypass the login, but its clear that it provide diferent way of playing, so its agains this rule.

Quote:Feel free to give your opinion about ISboxer
It's bad plain and simple.
You can't control customers behaviors in their natural environment, any multiboxing program is the BOTs best friend for clear reasons, denying this simple fact is making a fool of yourself, mostly in a game promoting all of the worst behaviors you could ever cross on your real life.
Wouldn't or isn't naif to think just because it's Eve suddenly this is good?
At which degree or % bots are not harmful or require attention?
At which point is easy to maintain argumentations about x or whatever program is not an automation of taks when you can't obviously manually control over a couple accounts if in the first place it's the the regroup of those commands in a single button that aloud you to do it like a macro or a tiers program doing for you?
It's a very bad discussion from the moment someone considers some program action is the same thing than a guy that can run several accounts with bamboo sticks over 20 keyboards and scrapped mice together.
There's no way in hell the bamboo sticks guy does the very same thing another does with a tiers program, no way close and no need to theorize or blahblah, as per usual endlessly for the same result, where the louder mouth wins.
It's just my opinion, no need to counter argue about I will not even care to answer because my opinion on this matter is pretty clear. *removed inappropriate ASCII art signature* - CCP Eterne |

I've always felt that the advantage of running multiple clients was mitigated by the practicality of operating them all, now that doesn't seem to be the case, and I'm seeing more and more of these 10+ account mining fleets lumbering around in unison, vacuuming belts out from under the noobs in their retrievers. I'm not a bleeding heart for noobs or anything, but it's starting to seem a little ridiculous.
The legions of carebears that come to Isboxer's defense on the forums are testimony to how badly it needs to be banned.

And it's almost unheard of to use ISBoxer in PVP...
isboxer gets used a lot actually in pvp. its used to gank freighters with 10-15 catalysts all working in perfect synchronization, much more effective than having having a whole team of gankers.
the player places a scam courier contract with a large amount of collateral, waits with his fleet of catalysts. does "the deed' with his fleet with just a few clicks of a mouse. |

I thought it'd been a while since the last ill-informed, badly written and whiny thread was posted in GD about ISBoxer.
Just to confirm a few points:
It's not a bot.
PLEX isn't spawned out of thin air.
The EVE client isn't modified or hacked.
It essentially allows easier management of multiple characters. If you've a problem with this then by your logic CCP need to deem using more than 1 screen as a violation of the EULA....
Oh and if some player has the ability to run 6 PCs and manage 50 accounts then just accept that some people are superior human beings... |

1. "ISboxer bring more money to CCP" No, ISboxers can make so much ingame ISK that they dont need to use real cash to pay their accounts.
2. "But someone spend real cash on the PLEX they buy with ingame ISK" Yes, but usually some other player, normally is not the ISboxer, he doesnt need to.
3. "But it doesnt interfere with your gameplay" Yes, it interferes with my gameplay when it uses synchronized fire, it can be much more effective than a human alpha strike and win PvP battles with the same numbers, even in Incursions they are using it to win against any fleet. Plus it completely ruins the Immersion of the game, soon EVE Online will look like an Asian mmo where you rarely see a real player.
4. "But only a small % of players use ISboxer" For now maybe, but if this is not dealt with soon, it will spread fast due to the power of this program. Just imagine the distortion of numbers in 0.0 if this is used on a large scale.
5. "But players have the right to play the game the way they want" True, but they already have the option to use multiclient, they dont need some program that give them an unfair advantage against the players that dont use external programs.
But in my opinion what is more insidious is that it is against the spirit of Group Play.
We dont want to go back to Single Player Games pre-Internet where you played alone on your PC and used cheat hacks to win the harder games.
Feel free to add your opinion: These are simply slightly adjusted arguments you had deleated from this thread in the Assembly Hall. Here was my response to that post.
Oh and a plex is created with RL monies.
