EVE General Discussion

You just won the cop out award. Would it not be better to address the question rather than pawn it off onto some clueless GM?

This guy is awsome.
And as long as he is not doing something against the rules, i have no problems with it.

Of course its a bit unfair against a normal player, but who cares ? If you have a rich Grandma and buy plexes and dont care about loosing something ingame but buying Stuff, buying merc corps to do your job and building up an empire with just buying people who do jobs for you, its sort of unfair, too. But its not against the rules.

I think you can easily beat him somehow, his setup has many weaknesses and he might be safer in empire. Study him, go in with a fleet with real players and you probably be able to make serious damage to him because he is still one guy so he will not be able to do more complex stuff with his fleet.

When i watched his setup, imho i think i can do this much cheaper. On my single computer i can easily run 5 accounts the same time. Also i am using eve windowed mode helper, so i can use 5 or more accounts easily with 2 monitor.

And more then 5 accounts is just expensive because i am not able to pay for them, but i dont have a rich grandma.
Having more then 15 toons imho is inefficient. Still i want play with real life players and i personally i am not a solo player, i like eve because i like to talk with others and play together.
But this is my decision.

So thumbs up for this cool setup. I like it. I want to see more, i bookmarked his homepage. Please provide some videos about what you are doing !

So report all null FCs too ..
They use "something" to controll other people EVE clients

Well actually reading you makes me think that from now on the only ones that matter will be multi boxing players, all other can go to high sec mine ice and give Goons easy km's...

While I think this is some sort of nice achievement on it self it's the downside of it you have to look at, a single guy can ruin a lot of stuff in game for many many players, this is why it's bad.
He remembers me some guys using 10 chamans in pvp insta killing several groups of players no matter how skilled you were.

All I'm saying is that this is not different from the guy using some combo pack of aimbot, chams and life hacks to play fps games. Well we can always talk about "legal" or not "legal", it's a matter of game rules at the beginning and Eve gaming rules we already know what is about.

If you think this is unfair then change starts with you.

Biomass your alts.

I don't believe he uses the taped together mouse and keyboards. Sure "maybe" that would work if you used "1" client per computer.

It's simple.. how many mouse pointers does your OS show on screen at once.. Mine only has 1. How does he duplicate mouse pointers to be controlled by these mysterious 7 mice & keyboards that ironically aren't in his pictures. Virtual desktops? Yea right they don't run smooth enough for that as they will always get lag between them.

I've always thought and I still do, that he is using soft ware to duplicate the key strokes and the pictures he showed in the past were maybe some failed attempt or a mock up used to get unbanned. I multi box quite a bit using 1 PC and "actually" controlling each client myself. Even doing this each client will get little hick-ups here and there that would absolutely cripple some taped together mouse set up and keyboards.

I personally will never believe this guy multi boxes in any way other than software supported, until I see video of him actually doing it.

btw I see only 1 mouse and keyboard controlling all his systems on his website..

This guy is one of our war targets right now and we took a closer look at how his fleet operates. I know he claims there is no automation involved, but after watching him I find that hard to believe. Every time he undocks, jumps a gate, etc, all of his logis start up a perfect cap chain the moment they land on grid. This happens even if he is only warping to the next gate. I very much doubt he's taking the time to start up his cap chain with 6 bassies every time he warps to an out gate, nor would he be able to do it so quickly since each bassie is only cap chaining to 2 other bassies (not something easily "broadcast").

That being said, his fleet was very easy to kill since it's so predictable.

Like I said... it wasn't hard. There is a lot of incoming damage from the apocs, and the repping power of 6 bassies with links is substantial, but both of those things are easily countered if you plan accordingly.

If each basilisk has their cap chain targets as the first two on their watchlist it would be as simple as a couple of mouse clicks to set up the whole chain.

Fascinating, I wonder how he keeps all those accounts synced...
