Primul autoturism electric produs in Romania va fi lansat saptamana viitoare de Dacia, chiar in incinta uzinei termo-nucleare de la Cernavoda.

Producatorul de la Mioveni a ales acest inedit loc pentru lansarea noului Model Logan Electrolux din ratiuni extrem de pragmatice, mai precis consumul de 10.000 de Megawati/ora al noii masini.

Construita prin eforturi intelectuale exclusiv romanesti, noua masina electrica va costa aproximativ 10.000 de Euro, dar va avea o autonomie de doar 200 de metri, respectiv lungimea cablului electric prin care este alimentata.

The Problem

Unfortunately, World of Warcraft is full of immature idiots and spoiled children. In spite of all the intelligent, considerate players in the game, they really start to come out of the woodwork when something unusual is going on. Like another player who is multiboxing. Any time I go to a populated area I am constantly harassed by these like. Here are some of the common types of idiots I interact with as a multiboxer.

The Genius

This player knows you’re doing something wrong and breaking the rules, and they’re going to tell you about it. It’s cheating, botting, or some other offensive abomination of gameplay. When I first started to get these idiots, I would try to educate them about the legitimacy of multiboxing.

However, I have never been able to get anything across to them. So now to handle these geniuses, I simply tell them to report me if they are so damn smart. I wish I could watch their conversations with the GM.

The Pest

This is the one that irritates me the most. This is the player that follows you and either says incoherent gibberish or puts you on autofollow and won’t go away. They say stupid things like “wat ur doing????????????????LOL” and such.

I had the worst encounter once in Durotar with a hunter who put me on autofollow. Any time I would go to attack something, he would try to attack it first to steal it from me. I had to employ some misdirection and instant spells to get my kills. Eventually he got bored and left.

The Buffer

This one isn’t so bad, but after running into 2-3 of them in a row it gets annoying. This one thinks you definitely need their buffs, so they follow you until they have buffed every one of your characters. This happens to everyone though, not just multiboxers.

The Excessively Amused

I think this is the second most irritating type. This is the player who just thinks what you are doing is the most hilarious thing they have ever seen. They come up and say things like “LOL,” “HAHAHA,” or some similar emote. I try asking them what is so funny, but they can’t really give me a good answer. Five players in a group is not funny!

I had one today who came up and laughed at me and then ran away. I asked what was so funny and he said “are you kidding?” No, I’m not telling a joke. In fact, I haven’t done anything funny yet, so stop laughing!

The Hater

This player hates you and everything about multiboxing. They spit at you, fart on you, and tell you that you’re a loser. I don’t know what their problem is, but it probably has something to do with either losing to a multiboxer in the battlegrounds or being so poor they can’t afford more WoW accounts to multibox themselves. Or they are too dumb to do it.

Yesterday I was in Orgrimmar with several level 70′s around me reinforcing each others hatred for multiboxers. It was a rather harsh environment, but I just merrily danced with them and avoided responding to their incendiary comments.

The Poor Child

You know, $75 a month for five accounts is really not a lot of money. I think a lot of people probably spend more on their cell phone. However, there are these poor children in World of Warcraft who are on an allowance and think you are some spoiled rich kid who gets everything in the world, including five WoW accounts. No thank you, I have a full-time job and $75 is next to nothing for me to afford. Ask your mommy to raise your allowance.

The Exception

These are the players I love to interact with. They come up and ask intelligent questions if they are not familiar with multiboxing, or they strike up an interesting conversation if they know more about it.

These players are nice, curious, and mature, and I wish they were more plentiful. I’ve had conversations about different multiboxing strategies, received intelligent questions about how to do it and how to get more information, and just chit-chatted about random other things not related to multiboxing. Thanks for making the game worth playing.

What are some of the most annoying experiences you have while multiboxing?
