Multiboxing is a term used to denote one user playing multiple accounts simultaneously. This can be done using one or more machines. Solutions exist for both the PC and Mac. There are also solutions for using both PC and Mac at the same time. The following pages contain more detailed information than presented here, Multiboxing hardware, Multiboxing software, and Multiboxing macros.
For some players there is not enough challenge in playing only one character at a time. Others look to recreate the feel of old time Computer Role Playing Games where a well designed team was used to adventure together. There are also some who don't want to rely on others to play the game when one character is not enough.
NOTE: Posting to Blizzard's Customer Service Forum to debate the 'legality' of Multiboxing is likely to result in a swift threadlock. The topic has been discussed numerous times before. Please refer to the following threads, linked from the Customer Service Compendium sticky discussing the legality - Bots in BG Multiboxing, rules, and semantics, and finally, an explanation as to why it is not automation. If you wish to see a change in Blizzard policy, please post to Blizz's WoW Suggestions Forum.
