Anyone else get the feeling that if the OP's system could handle more than 2 clients, this thread wouldn't exist?

I can run 7 accounts on a single computer just the same as you run 2 accounts. No need for any extra software. Can run a fleet easy in WHs to do sites.
So I wonder how you have decided that the other play has been using any software?
Any why do you think that the fact that he out-did you makes you any more "less game breaking" when using 2 accounts at the same time?

So you got beaten to the cake. Grow up.


It's an open secret that hes using ISBoxer.

the part you don't seem to understand is that he doesn't need to hide it. and btw, that's just one software, there's at least 3 other suites with similar features out there, not to mention the free options. you should stop advertizing that one software...

i said this a couple of times over the years, the reality is: its allowed. now deal with it. if you don't like it, do something about it besides making threads like this one. because all they accomplish is showing how much players support this software and gameplay; let CCP know that people want more features that favor this gameplay added to their game; and advertize the gameplay, and the tools to do it to all players that aren't doing it already.

three things very detrimental to your goal. Blink

If he could run 5, he'd complain about people running 6.

It's what complainers do, they can't help it.

I already said it a few times, I DON'T CARE if someone can use 6, or 10 at the same time, if all of the accounts are controlled by one player, and not a software.

Guys, don't be mad because you can lose your mining / ratting / any other carebear "personal fleets" . I know it's pretty s*it to actually do money the hard way...

Its really not a little bit hard with even only one account if you just read the forums and take advice.

Thats really hard sometimes I guess.

I really don't see the difference in being attacked by 10 people in 10 ships, or 1 person running 10 ships. I'll still get blown up by ten ships, and the cost for those 10 accounts being run is the same.

I just possibly MIGHT be a tad annoyed getting killed in a game that was F2P if said person ganked me while multiboxing 10 free accounts, but it would not be because I think he's a dirty multibox exploiter. but only at the fact that I'm too frigging lazy to do it myself.

If people want to pay and run 10 accounts in a silly virtual world that could end at anytime with no warning, rather then say, annoy girls down at the mall, let them for goodness sake.




I apparently have no idea what I'm doing.

But there one player behind all the accounts.
They are not being "magically" controlled from thin air and electrical mambo jambo.
There is one player pressing his keyboard and moving his mouse.

The only difference is that instead of making two ships shot the same ship one after the other, they are doing it at almost the same time.

This is not game breaking nor "oh my god he is cheating!!".
You can do the same with a free alternative software. No one is stopping you. You just don't want to so you decide if you can't, no one can. That is pretty much a single minded.

If you lived in the middle ages and always carried around a sword, and suddenly a wild man appear and shoot you with a gun 20 feet away, will you yell "omg-cheat-hex-wtfbbq!!!!" just before you die?

Tell me about some of these alternatives to isboxer. Unless one of them is a trap and you're trying to get people to use them and then get banned, which would be ~excellent~ metagame play.

Just make the difference between:

1. Alt tabbing trough 10 accounts, for an example to set orbit distance or for align, push f1 for shooting, and push f2 to tackle, it takes time right? Anything can go bad while you are doing it.

2. Set orbit distance, push f1 for shooting, and f2 for tackle, and 9 other accounts will do the same at the same time.

There is a big difference right?

Someone seems to be very unhappy with multiboxing software that supports broadcasting?

I need to see what this is about, besides isboxer, what other things would be useful for making people angrypost on eveo GD

Don't be a troll


Make friends. If you & your friends are unable to beat the multiboxed fleet then Dave's statement is correct & not in fact, a troll.

so? it's still direct control by a human, going at human perception and human rates, not a bot-controlled account doing **** faster than you could, ergo all fair under CCP EULA.

tough luck? don't care. ISBoxers are actually much more easy to take care of than you think.

Yes, it's going at human rates, for one account... 9 others are copied. That's human rate...

I won't play anything else, never played any other mmo, and I will never do it.

" Adapt or play something else...." Yes, may I ask you how would you adapt?

Pretty simple. Accept it as something you have to live with...doesn't matter if you don't like it...we all have to do the same from time to time...

Everyone is always repeating the mantra "Don't Trust Anyone" ad nauseum... If I can't trust the guys I play with, why bother playing with them at all? Fly Solo...
