I just took this screenshot, showing 50 skiffs isboxed in an anomaly. Supposedly this guy has another set of 50 accounts that he uses to mine elsewhere too.

Just why someone would put so much effort into collecting all that isk is beyond me. Either way I doubt he pays a penny to EVE, just lives of the plex from market.

This guy is a prime example of why input broadcasting had to come to an end.

-5 points for failing to grasp how PLEX are bought and sold and why that results in a net gain in income for CCP.

Meh, I'll play.

Because it's challenging to see just how many you can efficiently run at any one time.

Wrong. Whether you plex or pay cash for your sub, you are paying CCP. Money for plex bought is deferred until it is consumed, and if people didn't consume isk, demand would drop resulting in less plex bought for cash.

Seriously, this has been said at least a thousand times in the past. Stop being terrible.

What, because you dislike his playstyle? You realise multibox miners of 20-3o will still be easily viable, right so from a miner point of view removing input broadcasting only really affects the couple of people that mine on this scale. The guys with their one retriever still won't be getting a look in.

Wait until patch day. Report player/accounts with a support ticket.

Report guys who you can confirm are broadcast mining that is. Most idiots are goign to be reporting everyone with more than one character regardless which is more likely to get yourself banned for creating loads of tickets about people who aren't breaking any rules.

does it matter whether the profit is deferred? I'd say no, as the company valuation is dependent on (free) cashflow and the cash flows without any/much help from the ISboxer guy.

also, in the second part of your statement (and if people didn't consume isk, demand would drop resulting in less plex bought for cash.) this is independent from the ISboxer as he's producing ISK and not consuming. He consumes plex.
So you could say that there will be less demand for Plex-4-cash if Plex give less ISK... which is unproven. May also be that the consumer wants a given number of ISK regardless of the ISK-value of Plex.

Just because it has been said a thousand times doesn't make it true.

It's simple, get 50 computers and multiplex one mouse's input to all of the computers (such that your mouse's commands are going directly into each computer like you are physically controlling each). You do all of the commands yourself directly.

RL legit ISboxing

You can't argue with that logic
