All of the above statements are largely derived from issues in EVE Online caused by CCP's lax policies on running multiple accounts out of the same PC, which to my knowledge is the only example that springs to mind of a game where multiboxing has been actively allowed by a developer in their MMO. Also from peoples' tendency to take the most optimal or low-effort means to accomplish a goal (such as farm out IO sets). And peoples' tendency to violate conditional rules (people tend to speed more in school zones where the speed limit is reduced periodically during the reductions than in areas with constant speed limits, as a quantifiable example) over constant ones. Even if tools were implemented to identify multiboxers as the server fills up and "I didn't know 7 PM on a Saturday was going to be peak hours" and "sorry, I'm just playing with my brother" become common excuses.

Multiboxing is a toxic way to play City of Heroes. It shouldn't beallowed. It... Discourages class diversity by favoring passive ATs such as VEATs and MMs Discourages team play, as multiboxing favors solo content Harms the economy by grossly increasing the amount of liquid infamy Disadvantages single box players by causing massive inflation; see above Is wholly unnecessary due to the speed of existing dedicated farming builds (no, you don't need to make them faster) and the amount of utilities i25+ have introduced to CoH/CoV to hit endgame in record time Encourages botting, as multiple accounts can be run simultaneously from the same computer Relies on player honesty, an honor system, and active knowledge of queue times to work in the current system without impacting the game during increased server load Turns the experience of CoX into the same asocial grindfest of other MMOs Advantages: You can make more inf If you want to see what multiboxing does to a game, look at EVE Online, where pilots are encouraged to run multiple active subscriptions to keep up economically, and things like passive drone ships and FAX Logi chains have become standard due to CCP's allowance of it. The same will happen here and is not a positive change to the majority of players. Please undo this change in your policy.

Name: The Baron of Bones Account: Angelhood Battlecry: Welcome to the realm of death! I did take my pictures in Praetoria instead of Atlas Park/the character creator, but since the server isn't at a heavy load anymore I hope it's fine. Let me know if I need to retake in PC.
