I haven't followed the discussion closely, but I am against letting a program flying ships in sync. This is not playing EVE as intended, has nothing to do anymore with playing an MMO. EVE ships needs to be flown by players directly and not 'one click flies all ships in a fleet'. If it were up to me all players would only be allowed to have one active alt account (for scout/cyno) and thats it. I also wonder if CCP has an idea of how gamers that haven't played EVE yet percieve this way of playing. If I never would have played EVE and read about people using like 8 accounts to fly a fleet with a program to cause havok to solo players with one account then I might not even have bothered with EVE.... as it has nothing to do with game mechanics, but a 3rd party exploit to manipulate the game beyond the normal ingame mechanics. |

The fairbears.
I coined a new term.
CCP ... ban these instead.
Thanks!
How does a lame program to' one flick flies all' make you better exactly? It makes you even worse then a carebear that is having fun with his/her one account mining belts silly. Hell, I respect the lone carebear miner more then someone that does not know how to normally play a game with other people anymore without using an external program to fly multi ships for him. If you want to fly in a fleet, join a player corp, thats why they exist.

Not sure if it is beneficial to a game when out of 30k logged in accounts less than 10k actually represent individual humans.
When a noob these days looks for a corp he can-¦t judge activity by numbers of accounts in corp, he can-¦t even judge activity by numbers of accounts logged in. There are literally hundreds of corps out there with 3-50 members that are only played by 1 to 10 actual humans with each having numerous alts.
Only just recently I saw something very stupid in local, a fleet of SteveX1 through SteveX18 (name does not exist , just an example) getting ready for a massive solo mining op...... If thats not sad what is?
It-¦s like Bobby and his 10 imaginary friends fantasizing about having a great social life.
Exactly my feeling about it and I also see the Stevex1 to Stevex20 more and more in local. EVE is not a true MMO when they allow this kind of 'playing'. People needing to use a dozen accounts take playing a game way to seriously or desperately trying to compensate for some other real life shortcommings (I can't look inside their heads). |

And you'd be crying if the CFC made an OP to mine out all the ice in highsec with their alts aptly named iceminer1 to iceminer30000. Face it you're just having a bout of sour grapes with isboxers. You also lose all forms of credibility the moment you attack someone about their real life over a VIDEO GAME.
I am not sour, I define gaming and playing an MMO different then you. Playing a game beyond the designed game mechanics I call exploit. And sure you can make the exploit a game mechanic itself. You can even could call DDossing EVE gameplay with 3rd party softwarew then.

You can bash all you want about my opinion, thats fine. Using 3rd party software to fake fleet in EVE is lame, has nothing to do with the actual game design, ingame mechanics and the pure natural gameplay. It degrades actual gaming thats where I stand, even if CCP gives a super duper thumbs up about this (mal)practice. The fact that you can use dozens accounts simultaneously is already lame beyond words and reduces the quality of the overal gaming experiece for the ones that do actually play the game normally. If you multi-account and have several clients open where you control the accounts manually is at least something, but letting a 3rd party progam do the click sync with a thumbs up from the devs is not good for gaming nor the future of gaming in general. |

Or you just reply maturly and say you disagree. "Please never post again", I pay for a sub so I have just as much right to post my opinion as others. Or do you think you have more rights then me cos you are using multi accounts, or are you a narcist thats only interested in your own opinion and view on things? |

Wasn't it you that belittled multiboxers saying that they are" desperately trying to compensate for some other real life shortcommings"?
Nice quoting half a sentence. I added to that that I can't look into the heads of other players. I can't give an other explaination of why some players are so fanatic about using 20 accounts all doing the same thing with a single click. I m probably to oldschool to get the reasoning behind it, it does seem to be related about something more then just playing a game.

If you pay for a sub, and you're entitled to do things CCP said you could do, why do you think multi boxers who pay subs shouldn't be entitled to do things that CCP said they could do?
That CCP does allow it does not make it okay, it makes it twice as bad actually.... cos it tells a lot about the vision and standards of CCP. |
