Kind of confused

"Multiboxing is not illegal but Macroing is, and this is considered macroing in UO. "

So are you saying having 2 accounts open on the same computer (multiboxing) is considered macroing and therefore illegal? or am i missing something. :cursing:

Re: Kind of confused

Multi-clienting is OK. This is running more than one client at a time on the same computer. You can tab between the different running clients, but you can only "control" one of them at a time.

Multi-boxing is using a 3rd party program to control multiple clients on one or more computers so that one keyboard controls all of the clients at the same time. This is an illegal use of macros to control all but the first client instance. Each additional client running is effectively AFK macroing.
