Wonder what multi boxers they are claiming to take action against? Same ones I see on several shards are there day after day after day... I call BS on 77 actions taken.

Depends on what kind they are talking about.

When doing a spawn on my sampire I keep a account there hiding for a rez. That can be seen as multi boxers. And then at a idoc I will have two accounts move one to barrel then move the other thats multi boxing as well I dont believe it is but have been told and paged on it.

Its a very thin line to cross most times it depends on who it is.


But then you have people running 5 accounts plus at a idoc what would you call that?

After 20 years of playing, pretty sure I know who's multi-boxing and who's multi-clienting. It's usually the keystroke casting that gives it away.

77 accounts i think your right with the 4 people maybe 5. It is funny they always seem to jump up when a event is going on.

Abuse of Game Mechanics - Probably the people using crates and Personal Attendants to block mobs from reaching them on top of the Lvl 4 Hythloth gatehouse, as they multi-box a bunch of SWers spamming Thunderstorm.

How many times have I told you to stop being overly optimistic. Hmmm? :lick:

Not to the GMs and Devs lol
The same GMs & DEVs that:

1. seems to be unable to see that ALL the placing of post-IDOC Keeps & Castles on ATL are SCRIPT DONE;
2. at ANY report on this matter replies with "The issue will be investigated"... but the K&C ALWAYS remains where the Scripters placed them?

Hmm... yes, I suppose they are the same, yes... :p

I placed a house only once on Atl. It was a small tower. It took me very long time to understand how to do it.
If "scripters" will go away once, somebody will place it before I will do. With faster ping and /or fingers.
With current Atl house prices lots of people are willing to place one. Only one will succeed. Other players not so lucky will call him scripter again.

I placed more than one House on ATL, even recently. Till the "Tower Level", the placement biz is indeed, IMO too, fair enough: "Faster Fingers" normally wins.

At the multi-Plats Keep & Castle level IT IS NOT, and of this there are multiple testimony about placements of K&C that required a "Single Tile" precision done PERFECTLY and AT THE EXACT MOMENT in which the plot became available after an IDOC.

And placements that require such a "neat" Timing & Geo-Precision", are de facto impossible without... "help".

So, please, let's be so kind not to fool ourselves about this issue...

Yes, it is precision and timing. I personally never trained how to do this. Never learned. Never even checked which moment I can place a house after idoc. I rarely go to Idoc at all, especially on Atl.
Some person did research, found fastest way to do this. And that person paying his/her sub same as I do.
Till that person was not caught by developers for using unapproved or forbidden tools, I assume they do just fine.
