IS THIS EVEN "LEGAL" in the game ... Cause Bots corps like these should be banned instantly. And i say bots cause every single ship left in the exact same milisecond, everys ship cahnge target together, everyship was perfectly synchronized. These are not players.

And i have more screenshots. I got around 6-7.

ISBoxer isn't against the rules.

EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise

If that's who I think it is then it is indeed a player, one that is running multiple accounts and multiboxing software such as ISBoxer. As long as he's actually controlling the characters via ISBoxer and not using a bot to do all of the work then he's not breaking any rules.

If your corp doesn't like what he's doing then drop a couple of smartbombing battleships into the middle of his flock and let rip.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

If you believe it's a bot submit a ticket on it. The forms are not the correct method for reporting this.

This could be someone multiboxing. Multiboxing is allowed in most MMO's including Eve. Somehow I think this is a stealth ban multiboxing thread but I could be wrong.

Edit: Don't be surprised if your corp kicks you and gives you the pod express treatment. I would be pretty upset if I was the CEO and you posted this on the forums

That multiboxing miner is well known, and has received punishment from the community on more than one occasion.

Here's a video of his ships getting blown up: video

As above, what he's doing isn't against the rules, he controls all his ships using one program, it technically isn't botting.

So this is perfectly ok. To have a bot corp mine the only ice belt for around 16 jumps away every single time it spawns? right?

Is that Agal?

Can't really tell precisely with the corp chat.

I need 4-5 volunteers.

It's not a bot. He's controlling them, just his actions control many clients at once. Imagine one piece of chalk vs many pieces of chalk tied to a ruler. There's player interaction, it's not an automated system, therefore it's allowed.

It's perfectly ok because it's not a bot. It's a player controlling his characters using ISBoxer.

Googling "multiboxing eve online" was too difficult?

if you had, one of the videos may have been this guy undocking 100 mining ships or so.

Which would ultimately be a good thing because who wants to be censored by some power tripping man child in a video game. Ain't nobody got time for that.
