To the OP : Multiboxing is valid gameplay.

I just have a family, a job and a desire to some things other than play EVE.
I see statements like this a lot. I just have a few simple questions:
1.) If it is exactly 1:00 P.M. and a single miner starts his ice harvester and said ice harvester has a cycle time of 1 minute at what time will the miner complete a single cycle of the ice harvester.
2.) If it is exactly 1:00 P.M. and two miners start thier ice harvesters at the same time and said ice harvesters have a cycle time of 1 minute at what time will the miners complete a single cycle of their ice harvesters.
3.) If it is exactly 1:00 P.M. and three miners start thier ice harvesters at the same time and said ice harvesters have a cycle time of 1 minute at what time will the miners complete a single cycle of their ice harvesters.

n.) If it is exactly 1:00 P.M. and n miners start thier ice harvesters at the same time and said ice harvesters have a cycle time of 1 minute at what time will the miners complete a single cycle of their ice harvesters.
Hint : The asnwer is 1:01 P.M.
Now think about your previous statement and think about the answer to the above question and see if you come to any conclusions.
Thanks for playing :-) |

Good day citizens.
Our friendly neighborhood mods would like to remind you that moving this discussion into the completely relevant and entirely related topic of ISboxing is strictly against forum rules.
In no way is this person who runs many more accounts than any human being could conceivably control with basic human input a perversion of the equally crystal clear Terms of Service agreement.
So please join the rest of us in a discussion of some other non-threatening discussion of what the weather is like and how we cannot believe it's not butter. |

Something I wonder is where that guy is.
Surely he can't be part of the Mack fleet, he would get ganked in a second. Perhaps he sits in a cloak ship near the belt watching everything?

Saw a killmail the other day with that Bat Country corp...at least a 3 client kill on it (it may have been 5, 3 like named and 2 similar). So even combat (not just mining) in EvE is IsBoxed.
EvE is becoming like WoW's BGs. Just waiting on the auto-bots next.

Why would anyone bother about how he wants to play EvE? Seriously, just because you don't understand his reasons does it really justify even posting a thread about him?
My point about people having their own in game beliefs slamming someone else because they don't understand or like it is proven out again.

Posting in a 'Waah I can't afford enough gaming computers to run multiple accounts so ISBoxer must be cheating CCP ban it pleeze' thread. 
If he wants to run 120 accounts then what business is it of yours? NONE so deal with it.
CCP have already said they're not banning ISBoxer at the moment as it doesn't break their EULA, how many more times has this got to be said before you get the message.
Until such a time as CCP decide that ISBoxer does break the rules then it stays, if one guy wants to run a mega mining fleet, or a mission whoring fleet, or a capital fleet, or an incursion fleet then it's up to him. If he pays the isk to run the accounts then it's irrelevant how many accounts he runs.
It doesn't make his accounts cheaper to run, just the ability to get more isk.
Seriously, if I had the patience to train up dozens of miners, have machines up to running multiple accounts, and could be bothered, I'd run isboxer, but I've not got any of those :)

QFT - The butthurt ISBox whiners are the current cancer of the forums. All members of EVE forums online, rather than actually playing. How often does an ISBoxer actually interfere with your gameplay....?

So this means Eve only has 49880 players? We've been had!
This also destroys the concept that MMO's, and Eve in particular is all about player interaction,,who needs ingame friends when you have 119 versions of yourself to talk to.

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???

The answer probably is "Because they can".

well after reading this whole thread, the current version and the unedited version... i will have to go with my wife's answer(who plays eve occasionally). a player(anyone) who runs so many clients is probably compensating for something in real life.
no, this isnt a stealth isboxer thread. i've been playing mmos since the 90s and after all these decades, something like this is just "extreme" for me to see. |

When one dude is gate camping himself, "Houston...we have a problem".
When a game has gotten to be but 1 player controlling 3+ clients to "play" a game, it's no longer a player actually playing against a rival (the real thrill in PvP), it's playing against bots with 1 player thrown in for show (NPC killing now in PvP).
What was interesting about that Bat Country player who was IsBoxing, 3 of those toons were named after their leader.
Sad. Truly sad.
The blob has turned out to be not 1000 players behind the screen. It's one player now controlling x-amount of toons. And like in WoW trying to kill such a player isn't very easy, especially with burst DPS (why it's done).
That's why it's so wrong. CCP will find out by how much in the long run, too (social game that isn't anymore social than playing a solo game with TS).

Actually, yes, it is entirely the point.
Your view is your opinion. It's not the rule-set we all agreed to play by, it's merely your self-imposed limitation.

It would be no different than someone complaining of the veldnaught. Can't be ganked. Last time I heard of it some corps war decced him to get his veldnaught and so many merc corps came to his "rescue" for free. It doesn't matter how many accounts he has or what he does with them as long as what he is doing is legit and CCP is the judge and Jury on it.
If he bothers you that much don't go into those two systems or take matters into your own hands and whatever the consequences are for it that is what they are. |

He is the Beta tester of the new Goon fleets, i have it from the highest tier's of Goondom that if they cant end this war by August, they will be using there ISK for plex and alt accounts to use with the Goon multy-boxer software so they can have more people in fleets, every member will be required to run it + 100 Alts or be removed from the CFC. |

Personally I don't understand this kind of mindset, but then again if he is playing within the rules, not hurting anyone then what is the issue?
For all anyone knows he plays a couple of hours a night and his life is in perfect balance, he just enjoys modding his pc rigs and having lots of accounts to manage, everyone has their little quirks. |
