Some of you sound like jealous children who cheer in the face of the kid with the better toy who just had it taken away.
I do some isboxing ... and i'm perfectly fine with unchecking the broadcast button and work towards a more effective dashboard view. Half the time broadcasts just screwed things up for me one way or another because i use a mixed fleet.
Those of you who think isboxer fleets are invincible and think that these changes are going to save EVE have your own separate set of delusions about this game.
https://zkillboard.com/character/218906093/ - dead multiboxing protei ... props to this guy for bringing the fight... fun content that never would have existed without this guy and his personal fleet.
isboxer is way more than a broadcast all tool. those of you crying about having broadcasts taken away get clever.... a 20 man isboxer fleet will never be as good as a 20 man fleet of anything but BNI in any scenario but bombing. You've lost bombers and tornado alpha ... deep down you know that's a positive change and the rest can be microed in other ways. |

Systimus wrote:You aren't making much sense my friend. Multiple accounts are still fine. Using ISBoxer to control them all with simultaneously is not fine. Are you seriously asking us to believe that if the program you use to "auto pilot or dock" your 4 accounts with is taken away things will become to complicated for you and you'll need to cancel accounts? REALLY? 
The opening post stated the following;
'Input Broadcasting and Input Multiplexing of actions with consequences in the EVE universe, are prohibited and will be policed in the same manner as Input Automation.
This includes, but isnGÇÖt limited to:
GÇó Activation and control of ships and modules GÇó Navigation and movement within the EVE universe GÇó Movement of assets and items within the EVE universe GÇó Interaction with other characters'
This rules out more or less any use of ISBOXER to activate an autopilot button, or to dock my 4 accounts simultaneously. As I have stated previously, I don't pvp and have 4 accounts all of which I pay real money for each month. I don't consider myself to have an unfair advantage as I am paying for all 4 accounts. If anyone else wants to pay for more than 4 accounts they would have an advantage over me. good luck to them. Maybe get rid of plex's and stop macro miners self funding their players if that what the problem is.
I don't agree with macro mining and look dimly on those that do. I don't and have never plex'd any of my accounts - I pay real money each month for all 4 accounts. One account I have had for nearly 10 years. A second account, 9.5 years. I enjoy mining as I find it relaxing but mining with one account is boring but I find it much more enjoyable with 4. I don't make huge use of multi-broadcasting but I might use it to dock or maybe activate the autopilot which I consider to be trivial but would carry the same penalty as someone caught multi-broadcasting to 80 accounts. I find ISBOXER convenient to use but I may find myself at the wrong end of CCP action should I accidently use a function I shouldn't. And yes, if I find myself subject to a 30 day ban that I felt unjust, I will be looking elsewhere for an online game to play. [/quote]
You are overreacting.
In a nutshell for isboxers this does two things that i can think of:
1. It bans the use of the broadcast all feature. 2. It bans the use of clickbars that send commands to multiple characters. |

I can't believe I read every comment, but it was just so engaging. Did you botters log in all your accounts and post all at once or did you whine individually from each account? I guess the latter will be good practice for when you actually have to play the game like everyone else.
The funny part is come january and we are still doing what we do the roles will be reversed yet again and it will be your tears all over our killboards. The isboxers on here complaining are the minority. Those of us with a grasp on mechanics and intelligent use of the tools we have at hand are not so offended by this change.  |

Accelerates gameplay would be doing something faster than you could normally do it. By this standard the speed would be measured as the amount of time it takes one account. Without broadcasts nothing we can do in isboxer will be at the speed of normal gameplay, and nothing we could do was ever faster than that anyway. Macros are not allowed but keybinds are. This is not such a huge thing to most isboxers and if the new rules make you happy then it's as you said we are gucci my friend.  |

completely without skill
feed me your tears please!!!!!!!!!!
you are only showing how low you had to stoop to beat people with skill, because you have none.
its like professional athletes that have to use performance enhancing drugs to beat the players that can do it because they just are that good and they train hard, and are professionals, people WITH SKILL.
to recap, micro managing used to win people money back in the star craft tournaments, still do today... a hot key not a script, but i dont think you know what im talking about because you act like you have skills and are a gamer, any tool can go do what you have done. i could teach my gramma how to do what you do.
i could probably teach a dog how to do it, im sure a monkey could.. if you could teach a monkey how to point at the dot on the screen and told it to press a key, it could make bombing runs for you...
but okay.. enough. im done.. i seriously dont think you even understand what im getting at, either you are attempting to troll even harder because you have been trolling this whole time using this type of program, or you are just not seeing what's going on here...
it's like putting peyton manning in little league basically..
are you serious guys? your going to complain?
just .. yes please do complain, this is the best, the best fun ive had in a week or two.. maybe.. lolz!!!!!!!!
Eve is nothing like starcraft or diablo or wow.
You hate multiboxing because you lack the motor skills to do it? You can't afford it so it's not fair?
Peyton manning in little league? EVE is akin to little league how? Because you are in it everyone else who does something differently or better than you needs a nerf bat?
Some isboxers are complaining. Most of us though are sitting back enjoying the hate show you are putting on. You guys hate it so much and so blindly while at the same time not understanding the mechanics of it in the least. You just assume it makes our 10 man fleet as good or better than yours. Unless you are complete scrubs our 10 man isboxer fleet is not better than your 10 man human fleet in terms of character management.... not even close.

me too
What does that 3rd party software automate for me? Does it check dscan for me? Does it auto-target for me? Does it automatically pilot my ships for me in ways that eve doesn't already do? You don't like it because it's not something you want to do and because you don't want to do it in your mind that means it's not to be done.
I've multiboxed for who knows how long and only started using isboxer in the last 8 months or so... Why I do it is for the flexibility. It's also quite liberating to be your own everything. Having characters to fill all the roles you need filled to get things done is nice, and I enjoy the game more because of it. I also like helping other people and all my alts make helping other people easier as well.
If you want to talk pvp lets decide who gets the tear bucket by the size of replicators killboard at the end of jan 1st. For PVE we can compare wallets. More work, more investment, more risk, more reward. |

it controls your isbotted clients by input broadcast, why you use it actually. KC Kamikaze wrote: Does it auto-target for me?
yes, on your isbotted clients it targets things for you, you are targetting on your main client, its one of the reasons you use it. KC Kamikaze wrote: Does it automatically pilot my ships for me
yes it pilots your ships for you, following commands if your main client. KC Kamikaze wrote:in ways that eve doesn't already do? this is a stupid argument. An ratting bot does things in ways eve player would do them too. An aimbot in a shooter would do things human player would do. But better, quicker or more automated. no, I dont like it because you save work using automation tools to achieve things against EULA. I hate aimbots in shooters in same way I hate isbotter in eve, wouldnt you? stripped irrelevant rest of the post
LMAO see you have no clue how it works for me.
Broadcasts are no more so just take them out of the mix. This means moving forward i won't be:
1. broadcasting dock/jump/enter wormhole 2. broadcasting launch drones
Oh my! 
No it doesn't pilot my ships for me ... squad warp and fleet regroup do that for me both of which are not isboxer features.
So my alts target faster than my main? No actually. Right now I have a fleet with HMLs and a drone fleet. My drones I assign to my main (right clicking each to assist because broadcasts don't work for this anyway). And my HML fleet i've always ctrl clicked them all because in most cases i split dps due to the size of my fleet.
Comparing aimbots to isboxer is another ******** comparison. I'm sorry I like to use multiple accounts to achieve better results. Nothing in the EULA against that. And while some of your blanket statements may apply to others and they may heavily rely on broadcasts I never have so the impact to me is minimal and it's a change I can live with. The cheers in this thread are entertaining because I would think the majority of good isboxers are probably thinking along the same lines as me. You use what works within the confines of the game and is in line with the EULA. They changed the rules and I'll adapt. I'm just pointing out that a lot of what you guys who don't use isboxers think you know is incorrect.
I'm trying to save the GM's from thousands of pointless petitions from the masses of isboxer haters by spreading a little knowledge on its use.

ISBoxers are asking ccp to reverse the change not get handed anything on a silver platter. The fact that so many people think it gives you an unfair advantage is ridiculous. You are all clearly incapable of objectively looking at and understanding what ISBoxer does for people with multiple accounts. It's not the win button you all think it is.
Does having 10 accounts give you a PvP advantage? Sure against numbers at least moderately lesser than yours. We dunked a 20 man isboxer fleet this week with 13 guys. What's worse for the isboxer fleet is that most of your accounts are going to lose their pods because you lack the ability to micromanage your accounts.
There is nothing that needs fixing in this system because there is a tiny subset of scenarios where an ISBoxer fleet is as good as a player fleet and a much much larger number where it isn't.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAOLCWNF_NM
This change does nothing good for the game. ISBoxers will still do their thing albeit a bit less efficiently. With less character control ISBoxers will be less inclined to put their fleet into PvP to get raped like in the video above.
Enjoy your win. It's not as big of a deal as you think it is. |

Definitely a good thing. I think about 85% of the changes CCP make I agree with for the most part. The wormhole mechanics changes were a real bastard to lower class holes while high class holes it made a lot better. I moved out of my c2-c3 because of them. I see no benefit to the broadcasting ban though for anyone. |

Disgusting freaks.
The amount of bullshit some people's minds come up with just to feel justified in whining, raging or crying about this change is flabbergasting.
Most of you people who complain about this lack any decency, or dignity, or understanding of this game beyond your small scope you call "viewpoint".
It's no loss at all when you are gone.
There are plenty of reasons reasons to oppose this change that have merit. 1. The DEVs said there would be no change to multiboxing then changed their minds. - People have spent a lot of time and money in developing a multiboxing system that allows them to play eve the way they want to. (Sandbox Remember?) To be approved to do this and then go back on that is very bad form.
2. I think we can all agree that you can't pilot multiple accounts with the efficiency that you can pilot one and the difficulty increases exponentially the more accounts you use. Sure an ISBoxer can do more than a single player ... he's paid and worked for the ability to do that the same as anyone else can. Just because you have no desire to do this is irrelevant. Sandbox right?
3. The people who are bitching about it have no valid grounds to *****. Oh that multiboxer with teh bombers got me waaa waaa. Lets be crybabies and petition ccp for all our lossmails. If you got bombed I guess you weren't vigilant enough to avoid it, but no it's not your fault it's that isboxer who did more work and preparation while you were blindly ratting away then you can even comprehend.... Or.... oh this multiboxer is clearing all the ore sites or combat sites. He should have to fleet with other people and not do it solo.. you don't like it form your own damn fleet with other people and wardec them or if you sniveling bears ever come out of highsec just take matters into your own hands. Sandbox rules right?
It's ok ... you whine and cry enough ccp will make the rest of us conform to what you want and we will still always be better than you so you will continue to petition and whine and cry at every opportunity. This game is like the burning crusade expansion of WoW .. hard as **** and unforgiving... by the time you are done whining and crying we will have pandas and faceroll content in every corner. You will get what you want and we will move on to another game. Fortunately we are not there yet and I sincerely hope that CCP moves away from this sandbox for toddlers mentatity and puts the game back in the real players control. |

Quote:Blah blah blah.
Its most gameplay affecting feature was.
ISBoxers most gameplay affecting feature is and has always been VideoFX not broadcasting. You prove the point that you don't know enough about anything involving multiboxing to make an educated assessment. Yours is the blind and biased opinion of the masses who either don't want to multibox at a higher level or can't afford it and so want it banned.
Is it obvious by now that the ban hasn't stopped ISBoxing?
Are all the people who have been cheering for the ban happy now? Has this improved the quality of your gaming time? Are you going to go back to CCP to call for more nerfs?
What's the next step in the anti-isboxer campaign?  |

I wouldn't worry about CCP banning isboxer. This game is alive because multiboxing EVE is exponentially beneficial to the players so we pay for it. I had 4 accounts before getting ISBoxer. Do you think CCP wants me to unsub those extra accounts? I doubt it. They knew there would be some attrition but ultimately that was a small percentage of ISBoxers and if anything the attention all of this has received may have made more people interested in doing it.
CCP is trying to stop the pleb tears while giving us enough room to still effectively use all our accounts so they still get paid. Not thrilled with the decision, but I'm pretty confident that they will never take the stance of banning multiboxing software for the above reason. |

The fact that pepole take the time to track isboxers in game for no better reason than to monitor their login activities is entertaining. If you are going to spend that kind of effort on it get a fleet together to gank them.
How many people have me on their watch list now as a suspected isboxer? It's always interesting to find out what kind of intel people think they have on you. |

If this would be the case the plex price wouldn't have dropped from 1 billion to 800 million after the announcement of the multicast ban and stay on this level since the change. Why cancel subscription on plexed accounts if the main feature of something is not touched by a change?
That's right we control the price of plex. For every 100m isk you send me I will drop the price of PLEX on the market by 100m for one week. I'll do this for you because i'm nice ... and because I can. Just be sure when you send me the isk to put "For PLEX" in the reason box. Remember to follow the rules to get your discount PLEX prices!

EVE might have 500k subs (probably way less, but we cant get any numbers) and has decided that since they are experts in how an MMO should run, they will start banning people who multibox too effectively.
Good points fall on deaf ears around here. Games are balanced based on what the top 5% of players are capable of in the game. Banning broadcasting isn't the right kind of balance.
I think CCP do a lot of things right and that's why the people who can't handle an unforgiving game sub WoW. They lose a lot of money keeping the game true to course and I'm glad they do that. Making games too easy sucks the fun right out of them. Along with all the good decisions they make more than a few bad ones, but all things considered it could be worse. Until it gets a lot worse than this my WoW and SWToR will stay unsubbed...but I don't think it will.
I'd still like to get a response from the ISBoxer haters if they think this change was enough and if they are happy with it would be interesting to know. |

Yep and going against a force larger than your isboxer fleet also sucks because while we may have had a perfectly time alpha exiting a fight is not so easy to do. More often then not when we get in over our heads we lose our whole fleet pods and all.

I doubt very much people are getting banned for fast actions. It sucks that ccp are not communicating about this I do feel they should put an end to the rumors maybe not by sharing their detection methods but by explaining why people were banned. If someone really wasn't using isboxer or equivalent and got banned thats pretty sketchy. By that logic though I'd probably already be banned too. I spam buttons ... jump .. warp .. approach ... target .. if they couldn't differentiate rapid button presses on one client to button presses on many I'd have been banned with the rest of them.
Lets for once try not to overreact but maybe as a group voice our concern that CCP needs to give us some visibility to what is happening with people getting banned and squash the rumors... and CSM's should be at the front of the line communicating this message. |

isboxer doesn't allow you to control more clients at once then humanly possible since the broadcasting ban which makes your argument invalid so keep up your blind ******** ranting. I can't fix stupid.
So i tend to believe that in general people lie. Chances are the bans involved people continuing to use the broadcast feature to manage their fleet. I would really like to see some kind of response from ccp ... all we hear is the story from the side of the people who get banned and of course all of them are innocent.
Also ... what happened to the warning ban before the permanent ban? Noone seems to be mentioning that. Does that mean the people getting banned are just getting slapped with the temp ban or are they perma banned?

So basically you are saying you have seen their detection methods and tools and they are comprehensive? False positives are not possible and those of us using isboxer completely within compliance of the eula have nothing to worry about regardless of how many people might petition against us because the software can distinguish the difference between multiple fast keypresses and broadcasting/input multiplication? |

Please be sure to give an email address to one of your ingame friends because if CCP decide you are breaking the rules (as suggested by CCP Pelligro) and ban you, your friend can come to this thread to let us know. Do keep in mind though, the new rules rely heavily on "Player Policing" . Maybe you and the other person you know just haven't been reported yet so hadn't come to CCP's attention. You did just remove the need for player policing though by advertising your breach of the rules (as per CCP Pelligro) on the forums.
Just out of curiosity in what forum post does it say using VideoFX is now a bannable offense? Can you link it? |

CCP: We're gonna refer you the EULA as it clearly defines the rules (even though it has more grey areas than accurately defined rules). They don't care. It's been 3 months. We won't get anything better. Get over it.
ISBoxers: The change is fair / the change is not fair ... we can live with it though so plz don't ban us.
"ISBoxer is cheating": You have the right to your opinion, and we have our limitations as set forth in the 'Clearly Defined' EULA. You need to get over it the same as we do.
Anyone who uses the term ISBotter: You're a moron. Biomassing would be your greatest contribution to the community.

It's been a good many years since WoW ... but you are right. Blizzard support is there in support of customers. Not to say CCP has never helped me when something went wrong in the game but the general feeling of ccp support tickets is you are dealing with elitist jerks who dole out actual customer service only when they feel so inclined. Even when they do grand your request they pretty much say "you were lucky this time" which is not a tone I appreciate from people whose salaries I take part in providing.
I dont expect ccp support to be as fast as blizzard, but it would be good if they could be as supportive of their paying customers. |

My stance on this has not changed so I'm not sure why you are so confused over this. This is based on what? Your extensive knowledge of CCP's backend systems, our logs and our detection code? 
I think it's based on the knowledge that CCP provides no knowledge whatsoever. I sent a screenshot and detailed instructions of how I use ISBoxer and asked in my support ticket if what I am doing is against the EULA .. you know what I got? A link to the EULA which is NOT CLEAR. A simple yes or no would have sufficed.
On that same note why don't you share your detection methods ... put the suspicions and rumors to rest?
I've resigned to doing what I do and if it gets my 12 accounts banned then i'll just move along to another game because it's obvious those of us using ISBoxer will never get a straight answer because the whole thing about "changing the way the game is played" is such an open ended statement that there are 100 people in this thread alone with their own separate interpretation of it.
Support your paying customers and give us real answers. |

CCPlease stop this pissing match and give everyone the information they are asking for. This thread became stupid and pointless 100 pages ago and there is no sign of it ending. |

The fact that CCP promotes the **** out of using multiple accounts makes this argument invalid.
The fact that some people think ISBoxer magically makes each of your characters more profitable when jewing away in your own fashion ... well it is what it is. You can't fix stupid.
The whole efficiency thing is open to interpretation an infinite number of ways.... CCP sadly seems to be in support of maintaining this huge grey area.
I've never seen a horse beat to death so badly as this thread. |

I've never seen a horse beat to death so badly as this thread. No...not really. Efficiency is pretty clearly defined. A reduction in effort or other inputs. Lucas has spent page after page of saying ISBoxer reduces effort. And Lucas noted it allows people to run more clients than they otherwise could. And I suspect the reason they did this is that they were concerned about ISK flowing into the game as well as mined resources. The former can accelerate the rate of inflation, the latter depresses the price of those resources. But cheer up...maybe someday deflation will become a ThingGäó and CCP will revoke this ban on broadcasting so that the money supply increases leading to inflation. Although personally, if deflation does become a ThingGäó that will be very, very bad and your days of using ISBoxer would again be limited....as would your days in Eve.
Really? So it's the "effort" debate?
ISBoxer makes multiboxing take less effort outside of the game. with the broadcast and input dupliblahblah bans there is no greater efficiency in game. In game we make as many clicks as you to accomplish the same tasks. CCP doesn't care about out of game ... what's that other multiboxing app that they are actually endorsing? yeah it does fast click windows so you can switch clients quickly. thats efficiency outside the game same as you get with ISBoxer.
show me where ccp has an issue with efficiency outside the client ... oh wait ... there it is in that big grey area....you say out of game counts I say it doesn't ccp doesn't say a damn thing.

All the arguments about what is and isn't legal according to the eula rules, why doesn't Ccp with all their brilliant staff and coders, just design their own multi boxing software. Hell, I'd rather use Ccp software than use something that might or might not get my account banned ... Ccp, please think about it because it's stupid little arguments like this that keep putting me off this game .. I love eve and my sp level shows that ... Please seriously consider making your own multi boxing software designed specifically for eve online. Thanks. Game on guys and keep up the good work.  This does sound like a step in the right direction. I think even just being able to link your accounts/clients in game in more user friendly way would be great. For example in a fleet If I warp my clients to a gate I have to swap to every player and click "jump". It's annoying. But If I click a gate on each client I can select "warp and jump through gate". It would great to be able to warp my whole fleet and jump them all through gate. Same thing goes for docking my clients in station, Warp fleet and dock them all pls. Another feature I would like to see for multiple clients is a follow command, so my client will follow my main like a pack of wolves behind me, jumping through gates and following me on missions. I would swap to the clients once mission or pvp location has been arrived at, I know auto pilot exists but it's slow, and you need to setup route on each client. Follow command would work for me here. Generally speaking just make the game a bit more user friendly for multiple clients using little things like the above. It would need some authentication token to create the link between accounts/clients, which would then link the characters. Allow those linked clients the follow command and upgraded fleet warp pls. Rambling done. Good work CCP keep it up 
The follow feature exists. It's called group and it's used by clicking the little lines in teh upper left of the fleet window and selecting group from the menu ... maybe it's not "group" but its something similar.
